Gorgeous country cottage in a secluded spot now available in … Ngunnawal?!

A three-bedroom cottage with a stunning garden and what can only be described as simple provincial charm has hit the market in a suburb of Canberra that’s a little surprising.

Number 1 Wirria Crescent, Ngunnawal, is not like most other homes in 2913. With a simple layout and pastel colour palette, the home is 1990s Canberra floorplan meets Martha Stewart.

And just to add to the cuteness — it comes with a French-speaking agent!

Sales agent Damien Neron from Luton Gungahlin says he saw the potential in the property the second he saw it, mostly because of its enchanting gardens, which he describes as “a haven”.

The established gardens are home to multiple outdoor entertaining areas and a series of mature fruit trees, including cherry, peach, apple, and lemon trees. The enclosed, gated backyard features a double carport, a workshop shed and additional storage sheds.

“The garden is just beautiful,” Damien says.

“There are several ponds, ways to entertain, a cubby house for the kids that matches the main house and my favourite, the gazebo.

“The entire property has been meticulously looked after by the current owners and it shows in every detail.”

Built in 1993, the north Canberra home has been modernised to include wooden floorboards and wood design features, and an upgraded kitchen and bathroom.

“You can tell that the upgrades were really considered and executed well,” Damien says.

“The heart of the property is its light-filled open-plan living area, where natural light pours in.

“The renovated kitchen is stylish and practical; it has a Bosch dishwasher, and modern appliances, including a gas cooktop and electric oven.”

LED downlights, evaporative cooling and gas heating ensure the home is comfortable year-round.

Though it’s located “in the heart” of Ngunnawal, the small pocket of Wirria Circuit that the home is located on is “whisper quiet”, according to Damien.

“It’s also opposite a park, which is perfect for families with small children,” he says.

“Convenience is another standout feature.

“The home is a four-minute walk to Ngunnawal Shops and a 10-minute walk to Ngunnawal Primary School. It has easy access to Gungahlin Drive and Mirrabei Drive for commuters.”

If you love the charm of this property though you’ll need to act quickly. Around 20 groups went through at the open home last weekend.

“It’s incredibly popular because it’s simple and you can move in with nothing to do,” Damien says.

Number 1 Wirria Circuit, Ngunnawal, is for sale by negotiation.
