Light falls through the big windows and glass doors, patterning the carpet with leaf play. This immaculate two bedder is both generous and tranquil, serving up a soft organic materiality to match the natural surrounds. Generous proportions allow you to live a life of private apartment ease with the feel of a spacious house. And there is a dreamy balcony that delivers you into the calm of the natural world.
There is a decided energy on Dooring Street right now, new builds sit alongside vintage homes and energetic constructions are underway…everyone trying to take advantage of the fabulous locale. Old oak trees line the looping street and there is a surrounding of ovals, parks and wetlands. This leafy pocket places you on the very edge of Ainslie, moments from Braddon, whisper close to the Dickson Precinct and a swift light rail ride (or stroll, if you prefer), to the CBD.
The Como building rises in simple fashion from curated gardens, all smooth rendered walls, with a central pop of raw brick. Neat pathways usher beneath shady trees, past beautiful plantings, pencil pines, clipped camelia hedges. It feels domestic and welcoming; the boutique size of this multi-res setting it apart, think familiar faces coming and going, a fabulous community.
No.4 is housed securely on the first floor and captures elevated views…a moving, whispering dialogue with green trees, so close you can reach to touch. As the seasons transition, you will be treated to a spectacular colourful display, the autumn leaves on the trees giving way to winter views of Mt Ainslie and Mt Majura. Living is arranged in a convivial open plan, with a perfectly designed kitchen and glass sliders that open to the north facing balcony. The carpet is brand new and soft mushroom grey, while the freshly-painted walls are a gentle eggshell white. The kitchen ushers in speckled stone, warm taupe ceramic tiling and dishes up quality appliances from Miele.
The master bedroom is an open airy space, with glass sliders that open wide, blurring the boundary between outside and in. You can sleep to the presence of trees and sky or draw the blackout blinds for circadian setting darkness. You can step balcony side, with coffee come first light and commune with birds in the fresh air. There is an elegant ensuite bathroom and a walk-in-robe with concealed storage for seamless, minimalist living.
At the opposing side of the home the second bedroom is kitted out with bespoke cabinetry. Think working from home, think reading room, think spill over guest accommodation. There is a built-in-robe as well, so the room can just as easily be utilised as a dedicated bedroom. There are lots of shelves for a home library and a long fixed desk so you can create, informed by the wisdom of age-old oaks. There is a big family bathroom with a wall-to-wall shower, and a nearby European laundry that includes a dryer from Electrolux.
The home is handy to the green fields of Majura and Ainslie Oval and the charming Ainslie shops for a relaxed pub meal and selection of great cheeses at the IGA. The nearby Braddon and Dickson precincts offer a plethora of shopping and eateries extending a vibrant urban lifestyle. Resting at the foothills of Mt Ainslie, surrounded by green spaces, the apartment enjoys a relaxed village vibe combined with the buzz of the city.
