Offered to the market for the very first time since being built in 1968, this much-loved three-bedroom home captures the charm of an original Canberra residence, thoughtfully updated to create an easy and comfortable lifestyle. Positioned on a quiet, leafy street in Cook, directly across from the large neighbourhood oval, it enjoys a relaxed family atmosphere with the convenience of North Canberra right at your doorstep.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and inviting, offering a freestanding gas cooktop & oven, plenty of storage, and a seamless flow through to the dining space. From here, the north-facing living area welcomes you in with its large windows, filling the space with natural light and equipped with a reverse cycle split system. Freshly painted throughout and updated with new hybrid flooring, carpet, curtains, downlights & door handles, this is a home ready to move in and enjoy.
The main bedroom features wall to wall built-in robes, all with new door handles, new carpet, and a stylish panel feature wall, while the second and third bedrooms also benefit from fresh updates, including new carpet and paint.
Freshly updated with a modern stainless steel shower screen, the bathroom combines style with functionality, offering ample storage in the recessed cabinet and vanity for everyday ease.
The laundry offers direct access outside, with a paved pathway leading to the clothesline. From here, the home opens into a generous backyard designed for relaxed outdoor living. A large, covered deck sets the scene for entertaining or enjoying quiet afternoons, overlooking a fully fenced grassed area ideal for kids and pets. An oversized single garage provides additional storage or workshop space.
Directly across the road, Cook Neighbourhood Oval offers wide open spaces, walking tracks, and a playground - a perfect extension of your backyard. Families will love the proximity to Cook shops, Koala Playschool, Canberra High School, and Macquarie Primary School, while the University of Canberra and Belconnen Town Centre are only a short drive away.
