Auction Location: On SiteOn one of Ainslie's shortest and lesser-known streets, in an elevated and fabulous location, you'll find this extended, privately built home. It's at the city end of the suburb and very close to Mt Ainslie with easy access to its magic nature reserve. If you're into bushwalking or mountain biking, you're going to love this position. On the other hand, if eating and drinking is more your thing, you've got easy access to the delights of Braddon and the Canberra CBD. It's only when you climb the steps to the front door of the home and turn to face the city that you realise just how elevated this position is, with picturesque views to Black Mountain tower and the CBD. The home itself is some 193m2 of living with both front and rear decks and a generous garage underneath. The first thing that you'll notice upon entry are the rich and warm polished Ash floorboards which stretch from the generous entry through the large lounge and dining room. Polished concrete floors add a contemporary feel to part of the extension. There is a family room off the kitchen which opens through lovely cedar doors onto the rear deck and overlooks the in-ground pool, but I think that it will be the sunny lounge and dining room where you will do most of your living. This spacious room also opens out onto the deck and features a lovely outlook to Mt Ainslie. There are 4 bedrooms in all (all with built in robes) although the current owner has utilized one for her private business and this room has its own external access. Both bathrooms and the kitchen were renovated in 2006 and the second bathroom has a large shower and underfloor heating. There's ducted gas heating as well as reverse-cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort. The back yard is surrounded by a high hedge, making the pool super private, yet still sunny. The tandem garage has an automatic door and contains a safe and three phase power - ready for the addition of a car charger. There's a circular driveway which is so very useful for easy access and extra off-street parking. The current owner has already downsized and is committed to a sale.
