Boasting heritage features with none of the hassles, this sympathetically extended home blends period details with contemporary amenities. Nestled opposite Ainslie Tennis Club and Corroboree Park in old Ainslie, it is close to local schools, Ainslie shops, parks and Mount Ainslie. It combines a peaceful location with proximity to Civic. The bustling Braddon precinct is only a 15-minute stroll through Haig Park.
The wide front verandah leads to the entry with beautiful wooden floors. The expansive central lounge and dining zone with soaring ceilings and gas fireplace easily accommodates large gatherings. This hub of the home has bespoke cabinetry, full-height timber-framed windows and incorporates the designer kitchen with a Canberra red-brick feature wall, Smeg 900 mm range and a five-seat peninsula.
French doors lead to a wide covered veranda and beautiful low-maintenance rear garden with a 70-year-old camellia and mature magnolias. An alfresco terrace with ornamental grapevine is perfect for outdoor dining.
The spacious formal lounge with open fireplace could easily be a fifth bedroom as it is close to the third and fourth bedrooms which share an updated family bathroom.
An additional bedroom has an ensuite with deep bath and double shower. A studio with private bathroom has a library and study-nook entry, plumbing for a future wet bar and access to a rear patio. This is an ideal intergenerational space or rental opportunity.
A detached room in the backyard could be used as a music room, studio, home office or gymnasium. An adjacent covered annexe can house bikes or scooters - perfect for exploring the nearby cycling trails or just scoot into Civic to catch a movie or get to work.
The property features a heated scullery with storage and laundry drying space, office nook, attic with standing-room storage and an automated garage with mezzanine storage.
Come for the mod-cons but fall in love with the heritage features, high ceilings and timber craftsmanship. Enjoy the beauty of a home built nearly a hundred years ago, updated for modern living.
