This spacious two-bedroom apartment flows to a sunny patio that is enveloped in the softness of green foliage.
Arranged in an open plan, with airy high ceilings and a wall of glass sliders, the home embraces both private daily rituals and easy entertaining with friends and family. There is a nice combo of ceramic flooring and soft carpeting that stretches cosily across the living space. The kitchen is perfectly placed within one corner and feels both conversational and stylishly robust. Granite worktops glow golden, and there is plenty of storage and quality stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher to make life easy.
Both bedrooms have large windows that frame the gardens and excellent built-in-storage. The master flows to a generous ensuite bathroom with a large shower space. There is also a family bathroom with a relaxing bathtub and a convenient integrated laundry. Both bathrooms are finished in soothing creams, with floor-to-ceiling tiling and contrasting decorative borders.
The complex swimming pool is central to parklike gardens, as flowering crepe myrtles and magnolias rise from strappy grasses, an lavish plantings.
Set within the grounds of the iconic Starlight drive-in cinema, complete with original and restored signage, there is an emotive connection with the laid-back, convivial spirit of times past. Many have a fond memory, from hiding in the boot, to first-dates or piling the kids in the car and heading out for a night beneath the stars and the big screen. Speakers were hung on the sides of classic cars and there was a heady combo of steamy windows, romance and popcorn.
Despite the coveted inner-north locale the home is informed by the calm of nature and nudges the bush land of Mount Majura. Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes, fabulous local shops, plenty of playgrounds and parks. Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is a nice stroll to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer's Market. and is just a stone's throw from the Dickson precinct.
The home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
