Occupying a prominent corner position opposite Yarralumla's green walkable spine that wends its way to the edge of Lake Burley Griffin, this single-level cottage has a pleasing architectural symmetry and an abundance of charming old world interior spaces. Character features of this home include sash windows, French doors, stained glass windows, a quaint heritage stove in the kitchen and a delightful fireplace in the formal lounge with modern touches.
Sheltered by hedges and enjoying the spectacular English Oak canopy of Gunn Street, the home is wonderfully serene with leafy outlooks in every direction. Nature is also reflected in the soulful interiors, through warm timber flooring and doorframes, and a skilfully handcrafted kitchen.
Outdoor connection is the focus of the kitchen and open family/meals room where banks of full-height windows and doors open to a sun-drenched courtyard and beyond to landscaped gardens. Three sizeable bedrooms benefit from beautiful light and garden outlooks. An enticing spa bath and cedar-lined sauna at the rear of the main bathroom is an enveloping place of wellness where you can quiet your mind and help manage sleep and stress.
Stroll the shaded streets to the Yarralumla shops or primary school, enjoy a game of tennis at the Yarralumla Tennis Club or golf at Royal Canberra. Meet friends for coffee at the Yarralumla Gallery and Oaks Brasserie in Weston Park. This is a location with joyous lifestyle options.
