Classic Charm Meets Modern Comfort in a Central Location
Lovingly maintained by its original owner, this beautifully refreshed three-bedroom home blends timeless character with modern updates for easy, comfortable living. Perfectly positioned close to local schools, shops, and cafés, it offers a convenient lifestyle in one of Canberra's most established and family-friendly neighbourhoods.
Inside, the home retains some of its original charm while showcasing thoughtful updates throughout - including new carpet, hybrid flooring, fresh paint, upgraded light fittings, and brand-new window furnishings. The front living area is bright and inviting, featuring north-west facing windows, sheer and blackout roller blinds, and a split system for comfort all year round.
The main bedroom is privately positioned away from the others, complete with a built-in robe, large windows, and soft new carpet underfoot. The second and third bedrooms both include built-in robes and north-facing windows that capture beautiful morning light, along with new carpet and roller blinds.
The bathroom maintains its classic Canberra appeal with original tiles, combined bath and shower, a brand-new vanity, and a separate toilet for family convenience.
At the heart of the home, the dining area and kitchen awaits. Featuring new spotted gum hybrid flooring, a tiled splashback, and plenty of storage throughout. An electric wall heater ensures comfort, while large windows overlook the private backyard.
The laundry offers external access and combines the best of both worlds - original tiled charm and new hybrid flooring, along with ample overhead cabinetry for storage.
Outdoors, the spacious backyard is perfect for family life and weekend relaxation. There's a sunny grassed area, a concrete sitting space for outdoor dining, and a separate veggie or flower patch ready for your green thumb. Mature trees provide shade and seasonal colour, while the secure garden sheds with a built-in workbench offer excellent storage and functionality. The Colourbond fencing that wraps around the yard ensures
privacy and safety for children and pets, and a double tandem carport provides direct access to the backyard.
