Park the car and walk to everywhere – direct access to the shops, transport and playgrounds!
Down the garden path, beneath the reaching arms of a Chines elm tree, sits this sweet two-bedder. Sitting at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, close to playgrounds and an easy stroll, down the sneaky laneway, to the local shops. This charming, vintage abode, celebrates light and landscape as big glazing’s take full advantage of the aspect.
Brand new easy-care, timber laminate floating floors, stretch underfoot and walls are painted white. The big welcoming foyer is the perfect pause after a long day and serves up enough space for you to pop your shoes off. The living room is generous and tranquil and flows straight into the kitchen combined meals. Here glass sliders spill deck-side, where rosemary edges the steps and there is plenty of space for dining and lounging alfresco.
The kitchen has lots of great storage, including a big pantry and there are efficient all-electric appliances. One imagines enjoying takeout from the local restaurants or perhaps cooking up a storm and enjoying time with family friends on the covered deck. It’s the perfect setting for relaxing with lots of northern and western light, so you can always find the sunshine.
A hallway ushers to two very roomy bedrooms, both with lovely garden views. The master has a walk-in-robe and a RC split system to keep things temperate all year round. There is big bathroom with a bathtub that flows into a separate laundry. There is scope for a special lifestyle here, where dialogue flows and pops of vibrant art glow in the sunlight. Imagine mid-century stylings of your choice, a special serenity and the joy of living soulfully, within a home informed by simplicity and nature.
Watson has great community vibes, a wonderful shopping centre plus plenty of playgrounds and parks and is surrounded by natural reserves. You are a nice stroll to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer’s Market. The walking and biking trails of Majura Nature Reserve are nearby, and the home is just a short drive from the Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD. There is a great mix of private and public schools, the local pre-school and Nipperville day care centre. The bus stop is almost at your doorstep with the light rail not far away, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
