Location, location, location – a rare opportunity to buy a large established family residence in Braddon's best street. Just one street away from the vibrancy of Braddon's cafes and boutique shops. Sell the family car and walk everywhere instead - Braddon, Civic, Mt Ainslie… So close to the pulsating heart of Canberra, yet this wide tree-lined residential street is quiet and peaceful.
Set within a small pocket of established quality homes, a stone's throw from the CBD – 1412m2 blocks of this ilk are a rare and precious commodity (and unaffordable or non-existent in other cities). Its non-heritage nature allows for different styles, whether high-quality traditional or even a strikingly modern facade.
This huge single-level character-filled home has been architecturally influenced by Ross Feller, well-known for his work blending rural and urban sustainable design. The extensive established plantings offer a peaceful outlook and a gardener's paradise, with enriched soil that was once famous for producing fruits and vegetables for the local markets. Escape the rat race and enter its leafy coolness with many private courtyards and different entertaining areas.
On the one hand, this is a highly desirable family home as is. On the other, it's like an Aladdin's cave, with its many different spaces suggesting a myriad of uses and easily sectioned off – idea for multi-generational living. The basics include 5 bedrooms (or studies), 3 bathrooms, 3 living rooms, photographic dark room, library or music room. The options are endless, including as an investment for guaranteed capital gain into the future.
