Nestled within enchanting old-growth gardens, this gorgeous three-bedroom home offers a wonderful sense of privacy and calm. Bountiful lemon trees hang heavy with golden fruit, while a kumquat tree peeks above the roofline. The much-loved red brick ex-govie, with its simple north-facing form and classic peaked tiled roof, radiates warmth and timeless appeal.
Set on a broad, tree-lined street dotted with mature eucalyptus, the home enjoys a wonderfully convenient location close to transport, playgrounds, schools, cafés, restaurants, and shopping. Towering conifers screen the frontage, creating a sense of arrival before revealing the magical front garden. A charming porch and retro front door, complete with a patterned glass sidelight, provide a welcoming introduction.
Three large north-facing windows draw beautiful natural light into the front living room, framing the ever-changing colours and textures of the garden outside. It's a warm, uplifting space, perfectly suited to displaying treasured artworks or settling into a favourite armchair with a book. The adjoining dining area feels open yet distinct, flowing through to an updated kitchen with crisp white cabinetry and a new freestanding stove. A large window above the sink overlooks the lush rear garden.
A central hallway leads to the home's three generously proportioned bedrooms. The main bedroom features a built-in robe and peaceful north-facing windows, while the second bedroom also enjoys a sunny northern aspect. The third bedroom is spacious and filled with soft morning light from its large east-facing window. Nearby, the updated family bathroom feels fresh and contemporary, finished in crisp white tones and featuring a generous shower space.
The home and garden is the perfect antidote to the stresses of city life despite the ideal location- an easy stroll to Cooleman Court and moments from the bustling Woden Precinct. Cooleman Court delivers over forty stores, including Woolworths, Aldi, and a plethora of cafés, restaurants, and take-out options. Oakey Hill Nature Reserve is close to hand, as is the fabulous Stromlo Forest Park- a multi-use recreational facility. Or think camping by the Cotter River and exploring the endless hiking trails. The home is handy to transport and a variety of public and private schools and it is a mere 14.9kms to the CBD.
