These days, keeping what you love close to you is becoming increasingly important.
This home will help you do just that. It's less than10 doors away from two primary schools, a venerated coffee shop, a bar with a beer garden and a yoga studio.
You can walk to the Jamison shopping centre in just 10 minutes, and a short car ride will take you to markets, the Belconnen office and retail precinct, hospitals, colleges and universities.
You can also keep your family close. Set back from the street, with three bedrooms plus a study, a renovated open-plan great room' and large, fenced backyard, this is a place to shelter from the worries of the world.
The prime gathering space is undoubtedly the open-plan great room. This room is all about light. Five double-glazed windows provide a triple aspect with the northern windows bringing sunshine deep into the home and making the hardwood floors glow.
There's a kitchen, living room and a bespoke corner banquette dining space here that seats up to eight and provides elevated views across the landscaped backyard.
The kitchen can seat another two people at a 2.5 metre stone-topped island bench that has integrated storage and power and a gas cooktop with a wok burner.
The master bedroom is a space where you can retreat, curl up on the bay window seat and feel safe and cosy as you watch the world pass by.
