Rising above Dooring St, this airy one-bedder floats among mountains and forges a lofty connection with its stunning surrounds. The enticing Lonsdale strip is a short stroll away and the home is a hairbreadth from the CBD and the ANU. Yet within it is all simplicity and soothing vibes, as open plan living drifts to a balcony that reaches to meet warming sunshine and grand views across Canberra.
Ever-popular Dooring is a leafy street, ideally placed between Dickson and Braddon and moments from the village delights of Ainslie. The apartment is housed within the Valonia building - layered glass balconies, distinctive curves and portal windows that lend the building an art-deco flair and a distinct nautical feel. There is access to communal gardens, barbecue spaces and a gym and it is an easy stroll to Haig Park and the walking trails of Mt Ainslie.
Neutral tones and a generosity of space, creating a sanctuary, at once private and effortlessly open to the world. We love the quality of light and the open plan arrangement that flows to a sheltered balcony. Soft neutral tones usher in a sense of calm and provide the perfect backdrop for personal stylings, chosen pops of art.
Well-designed cabinetry in soft clay gifts ample storage, harmonising with the earthy hues of granite worktops. The openly conversational plan capitalises on potential for entertaining, spontaneous parties. Glass doors can be flung open to breezes and sunlight, making for relaxed easy living, whether communing with friends or enjoying a glass of wine solo, drinking in that magnificent view.
The bedroom window looks out to the view where a well-placed circular cut-out creates a halo of light. The bedroom informed by the grace of the mountains, the open sky. Think sleeping beneath summer breezes and the silvery light of a bowl of stars. There is a wall of built-in-storage and just next door, a generous bathroom.
Throughout the apartment storage has been maximised and a European laundry seamlessly incorporated. Throw in secure basement parking and you have an easy-care lifestyle underpinned by a buzzing urban lifestyle.
Braddon is famous for its unique blend of cool, independent businesses housed within old industrial buildings. More recently it has sprung exciting new, modern buildings. This mix of old and new informs a thriving, eclectic urban culture - a haven for expressive cafes, restaurants, bars, boutiques. This dynamic, central locale places you within walking distance to the CBD, ANU, Melbourne Centre, New Acton precinct and O'Connor shops. This whole inner-north area is synonymous for an amazing array of eating, drinking, relaxing, pampering, exercising and entertaining experiences. Throw in ample green spaces, walking and biking trails, established trees and gardens, and you have an enviable city/village mix. The home is also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
