Elevated on the foothills of mount Majura presents a wonderful entry into this most sought after Inner North location. From the gardens to the spacious, light filled living areas, this home holds character and uniqueness. Built in the 1960′s and holding an awesome, mid-century vibe. This home has been loved, looked after and enjoyed by the current family for years.
The moment you are inside the home, you are greeted with an expansive family and living area with new carpet, fresh paint and new Oak vinyl flooring. This home is built and extended to keep the family at top of mind. What I absolutely love about this property is the number of windows and how large they are. North to the rear, you have light-filled spaces, warmth, and views of nature all around you. With a flexible floor plan, you have a separate living, dining, and study area that could also be used as a single bedroom. The main bedroom has a lovely view up to Mount Ainslie, generous in size with built-in robes. The extension is my favorite, as it has been built like a retreat with the ability to shut off the rest of the house by having its own bathroom, bedroom, and living area with access to the rear terrace.
The private rear yard is a space that has been ideally utilized, having space for everyone to enjoy. Relax on the rear terrace whilst soaking in that Northern sun, watch the kids play, and hold iconic family BBQs. The Granny flat is fully lined and is a versatile space to use at your discretion. A teenager would absolutely love this space! With separate access from the driveway, an office space would be ideal. The lock-up, single car garage is convenient with a separate space for a workshop.
It is hard to imagine there is more to offer than the superb family home, but the location delivers in spades. A short walk away is the local Hackett IGA where everyone will learn your name, as well as the hidden local delights like 3rd Space and their delectable stone grill options. If you are somewhat adventurous and nature inclined, you have easy access to both Mount Majura and Mount Ainslie walking and mountain biking trails. Being located in the Inner North gives you iconic tree lined streets and some of the best dog and human walking scenery Canberra has to offer.
Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity to secure a true family home in one of the Inner North’s most iconic locations.
