What's around 38 Canning Street

Generational

The home rises from immaculate gardens and is both immersed within and connected to the tranquillity of nature. Positioned at the top of two quiet cul-de-sacs, the famed Ainslie bushland makes its presence felt, while the energy of the city sits at arm's reach. Multiple social spaces embrace light and landscape, spilling to curated alfresco moments at both front and rear. A clever extension reaches out and upward, embracing flexibility across time and generations. This graceful four-bedroom home occupies a privileged position on the city side of picturesque Ainslie, just moments from the independent restaurants and bars of Lonsdale St and the CBD. Set on a large corner block, the leafy home is roughly bagged and painted sage green, creating a textural and welcoming street presence. A circular drive sweeps through the garden, while a double garage provides secure parking. A broad, sheltered front deck offers elevated views across clipped hedging and sculptural eucalyptus trees. Inside, floating timber floors flow through generous living spaces, including the front living room, formal dining and a second living, dining and kitchen area, culminating in a sheltered rear deck perfect for entertaining. High ceilings, decorative cornices and modern updates add contemporary comfort. Large windows and timber-framed muntin glazing draw in natural light, with glass doors opening to the outdoors. The kitchen is arranged in an efficient galley style, combining stone worktops with banks of seamless white cabinetry and quality appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher, Whirlpool oven and 90cm induction cooktop. The adjacent internal laundry has excellent storage and opens directly onto the deck. The private wing is thoughtfully arranged across two zones and includes four bedrooms and two bathrooms. A central study with fixed joinery and a built-in robe connects the spaces. The original wing comprises two bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate powder room, while the extension adds a second bathroom and two welcoming bedrooms across ground and upper levels. The ground-floor room offers flexibility as a bedroom or third living area, while the upstairs bedroom enjoys elevated views. Both extension bedrooms connect beautifully with the garden, with separate rear-garden access creating wonderful independence for intergenerational living, adult children or private guest accommodation. Canning is a quiet little street culminating at Mount Ainslie Reserve. This special pocket places you close to Campbell High, the War Memorial and the boutique foodie and fitness offerings of Campbell 5. The CBD and Braddon are within easy reach, while Ainslie shops and the Dickson Precinct provide further convenience. The airport and Majura Park are also easily accessible, with shared pathways and trails connecting to Mount Ainslie Reserve and Lake Burley Griffin.
