Brilliant location with everything at your fingertips - potential plus with this large home!
This peaceful four-bedder is arrayed across two levels and sits in a private corner, with only two adjoining neighbours and views across to an avenue of oak trees. The large block delivers a deep front garden and a rear alfresco patio that overlooks an inground swimming pool. The home and its wonderful location brims with potential, delivering quietude, delightful vintage features, and the distinction of a second storey extension, gifting a parental haven with views to Telstra Tower.
The home is set within a leafy location, surrounded by mature trees and edging the open expanse of Canberra Technology Park. A picket fence, generous flat lawns, agapanthus and a long driveway that curves to meet a gated garage all lend a rural kind of vibe.
Light enters through the large windows into the spacious front living area where you can enjoy the leafy open outlook. There is a circular flow to the kitchen that features a central island and a large pantry plus plenty of storage and bench space. A floor to ceiling window on one side, perfectly framing a giant and bountiful lemon tree.
The lower-level features three bedrooms, the family bathroom and a laundry which opens onto the back garden, sheltered patio and swimming pool. The large garage has plenty of room for storage, kids bikes and pool equipment, the whole rear yard, both private and easy-care.
Solid timber stairs take you to the second level, where there is an expansive additional living area and fourth bedroom. This flexible area feels wonderfully generous, open yet private, think teen retreat or parental haven with the potential to create a walk-in-robe and an ensuite bathroom. This space also allows you to enjoy elevated views across treetops and out to Black Mountain.
Watson is a wonderful, inner-north suburb with great community vibes, fabulous local shops, plenty of playgrounds and parks and is surrounded by natural reserves. Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is a few steps from the Watson Micro Forest and is adjacent to Canberra Technology Park, where there is currently a new destination playground under construction.
You are not far from the evolving Dickson shops, host to an array of international cuisines, coffee shops and cafes. Majura Nature Reserve is nearby, and the home is just a short drive from the Braddon precinct, Ainslie shops, ANU and the CBD. The home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the popular light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
