Charming renovated cottage with picture-perfect views for sale in O'Connor

Set on an established tree-lined street in O’Connor, the four-bedroom property at 17 Hobbs Street was built in 1958 and enjoys extensive views across the city towards Mount Ainslie and Mount Majura.

From the outset, it is clear this property has plenty of street appeal and privity.

“All the houses in the street have preserved their 1950s and 1960s characteristics,” said Ray White Canberra – Belconnen agent Nicky Symon.

"That is what the owners loved about it."

Inside, the standard of the property remains high with Sydney Blue Gum hardwood flooring throughout and a fireplace in the living room for the whole family to huddle around on cool winter evenings.

The property is spacious and practical, with three of the four bedrooms accompanied with built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom has the luxury of a walk-in wardrobe and a modern ensuite.

The kitchen has recently been renovated to include a stone benchtop with a gas cooktop, electric oven, bespoke joinery and plenty of storage options.

The location of the dining room is a key selling point, with family meals taking place against a backdrop of picturesque garden views.

The property is ideal for outdoor entertaining, with a timber deck situated amongst established gardens and a fishpond, making it the perfect place to unwind.

There is also a carport that has internal access and a single garage with plenty of space for extra storage.

Other features of the property include double glazing, high ceilings, a spacious family bathroom and powder room, a living room, European style laundry and ducted gas heating throughout.

No. 17 Hobbs Street is set on a 686sqm block and is in walking distance to O’Connor amenities, including the local schools, parks and shops.

Ms Symon said the home is in a great location.

“There is a children’s playground at the end of the street and the home is a short walk or bike ride to the ANU,” she said.
