Single level easy care living at its best – hard to find!

Cleverly arrayed with privacy and connection in mind, the home's depth of space belies its low slung, humble form. A central courtyard is a lovely light well, drawing warmth and blue skies deep into the home, creating a space for an impressive indoor garden.

Neat rows of townhouses sit snugly across from the upcoming brand-new Watson playground, with outlook to a stand of towering gums. No.98 is nicely tucked around the corner and has a deep garden verge on two sides, dotted with mop-top robinia, liquid ambers and clipped photinia hedging. Tall garden walls privatise and enclose, making the sunken form of the home barely visible from the street. Decorative square moulded columns characterise the facade, adding depth and contrast to the white rendered form, with its interesting mix of roof levels and angles.

A garden gate opens to a recessed courtyard that wraps around the home. Flowering jasmine crowds the high wall as pavers coalesce with river pebbles and mulched garden beds. A bountiful fig tree flourishes in the northern light, taking pride of place within the alfresco arena.

Within easy-care ceramic floors flow underfoot as a light filled and private living space drifts to the open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room. A wall of glazing captures the magisterial form of Mount Majura as clerestory windows welcome northern light. Raked ceilings gift a celebratory sense of space and there are glimpses to the internal courtyard beyond.

The kitchen is all white on white with floating island and stone worktops. There is ample storage and quality appliances from omega, with a brand-new dishwasher from Bosch. This stunning social arena can be privatised via internal sliding doors, sealing it from both the second living area and both bedroom wings, catering for the ever-changing moods and needs of the evolving modern family.

The master suite is nicely sequestered to the south while still being informed by northern light via the adjacent courtyard which acts as both natural lungs and a lightwell. A large window within the bedroom welcomes softer morning light and there is the luxury of a walk-in-robe and large ensuite bathroom.

The northern wing of the home houses two additional bedrooms that centre around a family bathroom, separate toilet with external basin. Both rooms have mirrored built-in-robes for seamless storage while both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling in crisp white with ceramic floors in organic river stone.

Notably there is a generous internal laundry, nicely tucked away off the internal courtyard and internal access from the double auto garage.

The home sits across from the brand new, inclusive play space and recreational park that is imminently forthcoming and is also just a short stroll from Mt Majura reserve. The fab Watson shops are handy, with local highlights including, great coffee and fabulous pizza from The Knox and lovely cuisine from the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. It is an easy walk to Exhibition Park and host to the famous Farmer's Market and the home is just a short drive from the Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD. You are also convenient to a mix of popular and top ranking schools, including Lyneham high, Dickson college, Majura Primary and Rosary primary school, close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
