There is a lovely balance of spaces matched with the perfect locale – an oak-lined street, surrounding parklands and the tranquillity of O'Connor Ridge Nature Park. Elegant touches uplift the lived experience, including rich Blackbutt timber floors, recent carpets, upgraded lighting with slimline switches and dimmers, glass dining pendants and black-framed corner windows capturing the surrounding landscape. This stunning two-bedroom townhouse is a private haven in a well-connected inner-north setting, moments from Braddon, Dickson and the CBD.
Archibald is surrounded by an eclectic mix of old and new homes, with interconnecting bike paths meandering through parklands towards the city. It is a leafy stroll to local shops and schools, including Book Lore and the iconic Tilley's Divine Café and Gallery. The Old Canberra Inn, sports fields, parks and ovals are also close by.
The home has a welcoming symmetry, with smooth rendered walls, clean red brickwork, a straight garden path and neatly clipped hedges. Terrace-house living is given a modern twist across two levels, offering generous proportions, abundant natural light and private outdoor spaces at both the front and rear.
Dining takes centre stage beneath elegant glass pendants, flowing through to the sunny kitchen and living area. Blackbutt timber floors unite the social spaces, complemented by a gentle palette of eggshell, nougat and crisp gallery white. Designer Thor's Hammer shelving adds stylish display and storage to the dining area and kitchen.
The living area sits beneath a wall of glass, capturing beautiful northern sunshine and winter light. Glass sliders open to the paved rear courtyard, with high garden walls and gated access to the communal gardens. Entertain alfresco beneath the pergola, removable shade sail or extendable awning.
The centrally positioned kitchen features extensive cabinetry, a generous stone peninsula, flexible tap and upgraded induction cooktop, complemented by an integrated dishwasher, electric oven and rangehood. The upgraded European laundry provides additional storage.
Upstairs are two generous bedrooms with built-in robes and recent carpets. The light-filled master features plantation shutters, designer Thor's Hammer shelving and an upgraded wardrobe with built-in drawers and improved hanging space. The elegant ensuite includes an upgraded shower, while the second bathroom has a bathtub. Both feature floor-to-ceiling tiling, stacked-tile walls, stone-topped vanities and rain showers.
Thoughtful upgrades continue throughout, including contemporary door handles and refined lighting. Positioned at the far end of the complex, the home enjoys a peaceful setting away from the main road and pub noise. Two side-by-side parking spaces with storage, visitor parking and convenient on-street parking directly outside add to the practicality.
The beautifully tended complex features two EV charging points, mature trees, generous communal spaces, a communal veggie patch for residents to enjoy gardening, and a shared swimming pool, adding to the outdoor appeal.
Ideally positioned in central Lyneham, the home is close to Lyneham shops, independent eateries, Braddon and Dickson, as well as the Old Canberra Inn, Tilley's, schools, parks, ovals, sports fields and shared walking and cycling trails. O'Connor Ridge Reserve and wetlands are nearby, the ANU is close, and the CBD is just 4.8km away.
