Wybalena Grove is an iconic, much-loved woodland townhouse estate that has featured prominently in the Design Canberra Festival, and number 21 showcases exactly why the homes here are so highly regarded.
Lovers of mid-century-modern architecture will thrill at the delicious internal features including a tri-level floorplan, cathedral ceilings to the upper level, exposed beams, full-height cedar-framed windows and a slow combustion heater, the flue of which has become a double-height sculptural element in the living areas.
More recent touches include the addition of skylights and updates to kitchen appliances, but there is still scope here for you to come in and add your own personal stamp.
Set on 30 acres, the complex's peaceful native setting is a huge drawcard and has influenced architect Michael Dysart's original choice of a brick colour to match the bark of surrounding eucalypts.
The environment is a welcome presence in every room. On the upper level, the main living area opens to a treetop balcony. The two bedrooms open out to a private, north-facing deck and garden beyond.
Proximity to schools, universities, walking trails, popular cafes, bars and both the Belconnen and Canberra retail and office centres make the convenience of this location a huge sweetener, but it's the beautifully maintained neighbourhood facilities and the unique setting that will truly win your heart.
Despite its bushland setting, Wybalena Grove is superbly located close to all of North Canberra's major facilities. From here you have such easy access to the popular cafes and bars of Cook & Aranda, minutes to Jamison Plaza, the Belconnen Town Centre, Bruce precinct and only 8km from Canberra's City Centre.
