the easy life

There is a vibe – welcoming and relaxed, with a touch of elegance. Think blissful silence informed by birdsong, rustling leaves, yet all the while your finger on the pulse, the brilliant locale placing you within easy reach of parks, cafés, restaurants…all the best that Canberra has to offer.

This gorgeous two-bedroom apartment occupies the second floor and is gloriously open, welcoming loads of light and pretty views. The sunlit open plan feels convivial and simple. It's the kind of home where you can just as easily stay home and hang out with friends or spontaneously head out on the town. Just down the road, the relaxed scenes of O'Connor shops, and just a short stroll away, the vibrant happenings of Braddon and the CBD.

The building is a minimal modern affair with mixed glazings punctuating the smooth rendered walls. Hedges soften and privatise and the internal foyer is sunlit with windows gifting views of the surrounding treescapes as you climb the stairs.

The generous, light filled kitchen, dining and living feels open to the world. Banks of glass sliders can be flung open, welcoming air and aspect, and extending the social arena to balcony. From here you can take in the treetops and the distant views of the western mountain ranges. Light penetrates from the north, illuminating the balcony, both bedrooms and filling the kitchen with a warming glow.

Stone benchtops meet tiled splashback in soothing river stone, as banks of light cabinetry team with darker hues, ushering in a chocolatey richness. This sunny hub has a spot for everything with banks of clever storage including a microwave nook and deep pantry.

The main bedroom is at the rear of the plan and captures far reaching views out to Mount Ainslie to the east, while clerestory windows frame botanical vistas to the north. A walk-in-robe provides plenty of storage, while the adjoining bathroom is finished in crisp white, with large format ceramic flooring furthering the organic theme. There is a relaxing bathtub and two-way access from both the bedroom and the living area.

The second bedroom is also blessed with light, as windows open to the north and west. There is a built-in-robe for seamless storage and a lovely contemplative feel, with lovely views framing the soft colours and textures of age-old trees. Throw in a European laundry, secure basement parking and you have laid back living within a pocket of calm, right in the heart of the inner north.

Your life in Turner –
Leafy and quiet streets to explore, eyeing the many fabulous established homes and gardens, strolls in Haig Park beneath the shady pines or exploring the many biking and walking trails in O'Connor Ridge and Lake Burly Griffin.

Eating, shopping and exploring the many independent businesses seeded within the inner-north and the CBD. Walking to Lonsdale Street, perusing the shops, grabbing a coffee or a local wine from Black Hearts and Sparrows or dining at any one of the wonderful eateries. O'Connor shops are close by for bowls, hilarity and drinks with friends at The Ruc and a relaxed lunch at The Duxton. Explore the international cuisine of the famous Dickson precinct and perhaps a long brunch alfresco, at the iconic Tilley's.

Ditching the car and biking or walking to the CBD or New Acton. Jumping on the light rail and connecting with the metro city station, linking you to the whole of Canberra.
