14 reasons we'll be front and centre to inspect this Weetangera home on the weekend

<p data-block-key="zl95q">Scrolling through the listings in Weetangera right now is basically a game of ‘wow’, ‘who knew?’ and ‘yes please!’</p><p data-block-key="7q0ov">We’ve always been intrigued by the sprawling 1970s homes that line the streets of Weetangera (we’re always on the lookout for Canberra’s answer to <i>The Brady Bunch</i> house) and these four listings are a total wrap of everything there is to love about the region in Canberra’s far north.</p><h2 data-block-key="6d197"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">31 Bambridge Street, Weetangera</a></h2><img alt="31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380-image-0-20220117011648724631-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380-.width-800.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="b7452">Well, hello mid-century dream! From the parquetry floors and the classic 70s orange tiles for the kitchen backsplash to the exposed timber roof beams, everything about <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this place</a> screams Weetangera at its retro best.</p><img alt="31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380-image-0-20220117011649409557-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-bambridge-street-weetangera-act-2614-52380-.width-800_ceLDj2i.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="271bd">It doesn’t quite have <i>The Brady Bunch</i>’s sunken lounge room but it <i>does</i> have a sunken seated area in the garden. The angles of the roof in the kitchen are vintage heaven. Sure, the bathroom and kitchen could do with some modernising but if you want to head back to a time when Malcolm Fraser was Prime Minister and colour television was new down under, this is the property for you.</p><h2 data-block-key="9853t"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">5 McKeahnie Street, Weetangera</a></h2><img alt="5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385-image-0-20220117013136124847-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385-i.width-800.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="u33h">The wow factor of <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this home on McKeahnie Street</a> lies not in the house itself (though it is also a mid-century dream) but in the quirky spaces and landscaping around the main home.</p><img alt="5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385-image-0-20220117013139952499-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/5-mckeahnie-street-weetangera-act-2614-52385-i.width-800_oM8VvLf.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="7gsq5">The bathroom, for example, comes with <i>its own atrium</i>; the type of zen space that sets you up for a calm day, every day.
