Restful springs to mind…a sweet garden gate opening onto the deep front courtyard, enveloped in high garden walls and pretty pittosporum hedging. This peaceful one-bedder nestles within a boutique development, and places you within easy and ready reach of the vibrant food and drink scene at O’Connor shops. It is also just moments to the bustling Braddon scene and the CBD. Open plan living basks in northern light and the bedroom overlooks well-tended common gardens.
 
There is a relaxing Mediterranean feel to this boutique low-rise development, with its bagged brick walls, earthy off-whites and terracotta roof tiles. There is the softness of  pretty landscaping and the dappled shade from established trees. Private driveways usher past neat villas, tucked away behind high courtyard walls. Age-old pencil pines dot the gardens and a paved drive ushers to a garage with the convenance of internal access.
 
Within brand new carpeting stretches to meet whisper white fresh painted walls. Big windows let in the light and there is a wonderful connection to the private front garden. Think cooking and entertaining within the open plan, conversations flowing and an easy spill to outside. The corner kitchen is spacious and delivers ample storage and striking black worktops. The long island bench gifts a spot for friends to gather, so you can cook up a storm or plate fave take-out with relaxed, conversational ease.
 
The bedroom feels calm and welcoming with its big window framing the neat pathways that wend through well-planted gardens. A built-in-robe takes care of clutter, keeping the vibe soothingly minimal, while the bathroom is neatly finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling, with a border of black mosaics echoing the kitchen.
 
Underpinning it all is the lifestyle, the home just a few steps to the fabulous O’Connor shops with local favs including – The Duxton for great pub food and Flatheads for scrummy fish and chips. There is also The Ruc for relaxed lunches with friends and a spot of bowls. Several parks and ovals are close to hand, including the magic Tocumwal Park with its play equipment and hedged walls. Shared biking and walking paths wend their way through interlinking green spaces to the city. Bus stops are at your door, and it is not far to the vibrant Dickson and Braddon precincts, extending a cornucopia of bars, cafes, and restaurants.
