Overview

A Family Home in the Heart of Ainslie

Auction Location: On-Site Ainslie has a way of holding on to people. It's the leafy streets where original homes sit beside striking new builds, the Ainslie shops where a quick errand turns into a catch-up, and Mount Ainslie close enough for a morning walk. 57 Campbell Street sits right in the middle of it. Weekdays run easily, with the bus to the City out the front and local schools close by. Weekends slow down, starting with an eight-minute stroll to the shops for coffee and baked goods and ending with a drink at Edgar's as the evening settles in. Freshly painted throughout, the home has four bedrooms, a study and two separate living areas: room to come together and room to unwind. The family and dining room is the heart of it, with a wood fire for winter nights and sliding doors to the backyard for summer. The front lounge is its quieter counterpart. The original 1941 cottage, built when Campbell Street was still a dirt road, keeps its restained timber doors and sills and a porch restored to red Canberra brick. Later additions brought the family room and two more bedrooms. Then there's the land. At 834mï¿½, there's room for the kids to run, veggies to grow and space to extend. Make it yours now and extend or update when you're ready.
