The T-shaped floor plan of this extended family home in Higgins brings with it a distinct advantage. The living and family rooms open out to different sides of the home and have an abundance of natural light that streams in to the residence year round.

To the front, the lounge room has sweeping views across the Holt playing fields. To the rear of the home is the open-plan dining and family room which looks out across the expansive fully fenced and gently-sloped rear back yard.

At the hub of this t-shaped cross-section is the spacious kitchen and adjacent dining room providing easy access to the outdoor covered alfresco area. It's easy to imagine enjoying languid summer evenings here watching the kids and pets play in the comfort of their own backyard.

Beautiful Tasmanian oak timber floors run throughout the house, including the bedrooms. All of the bedrooms are serviced by a renovated family bathroom with standalone shower and bath.

Living here you'll be within walking distance to the Kingsford Smith School, Higgins shops, Kippax Fair, playgrounds, Little Penguins Early Learning Centre and close to bus routes to Westfield Belconnen and the city centre.

With property experts last year labelling Higgins as in the top 5 of Canberra's price growth suburbs, now is the time for first home buyers, investors or families to get a solid foothold in this established suburb.
