An unspoilt example of mid-century design, this double brick home has been refreshed throughout in neutral white and its striking, Cypress pine flooring sanded and polished. Otherwise its original presentation remains unaltered, capturing an era that will be a delightfully nostalgic experience for anyone familiar with homes of the time!

The curved front terrace offers covered and open areas to relax overlooking the garden, and the original glass front door opens to reveal the eye-catching pine flooring in the entry hall, which extends through living areas and bedrooms.

Formal lounge/dining is a glimpse into times gone by, with the solid fuel stove a focus of warmth, although ducted gas heating is a welcome modern comfort. Ornate cornices and wide timber framed windows add to the ambience, and the room has its own door onto the terrace.

An oversized master bedroom or second living area, has two way access from the lounge/dining and entry hallway. It has a built-in robe and a decorative cornice.

Authentic in every detail, the large eat-in kitchen offers a private outlook over the rear garden and features an electric stove and cooktop, installed in an alcove backing the fireplace in the lounge.

The entry hall leads to second and third bedrooms which also have built-in robes.

Featuring a pedestal basin and bath in turquoise of the day, the bathroom has a separate w/c.

From the laundry there is access into the large, level rear garden bordered by shrubs and safely enclosed.

A tandem carpet is secured by a roller door, and there is a storeroom at the rear, while on the opposite side of the home there is a large shed.

The convenient location is a great place to observe vibrant inner north life going by, and is just a short walk to North Ainslie Primary and Dickson College, Emmaus Christian school and the Australian Catholic University.

It is an enjoyable stroll to light rail, shops and restaurants of the Dickson hub, Hackett shops or to Mt. Ainslie and Mt. Majura nature trails!

Whatever your inspiration and plan, this charming, soundly built home offers a retreat from modern life and is a fascinating, well preserved example of one of Canberra's earlier homes.
