This two-bedroom three bathroom townhouse is in a quiet pocket of Lawson, surrounded by playgrounds, grasslands and the tranquil trails that edge Lake Ginninderra. The home is set across three levels and makes the most of its locale – spilling to balconies on both sides. Lots of glass forges a continuous connection to the landscape welcoming light. The living is open plan in design with an excellent connection to a private courtyard garden.

Part of a boutique development, the home is one of similar neatly arrayed townhouses – all simple lines, smooth white render. The entryway is framed by bluestone garden walls and stairs that step-down to a private driveway, with a central parking bay for visitors. The garage has a roller door for easy access and internal entry. Beyond the garage there is a large multi-use space with a private bathroom, perfect for as an additional living space or third bedroom.

The second level is the heart of the home, and features an excellent kitchen that sits central, in perfect dialogue with both the cosy living area and the dining space. Couches can be arranged beneath the glass doors that open onto the leafy courtyard garden with its morning light.

On the other side of the kitchen is the dining space with glass sliders opening to a Juliette balcony and the mountain ranges beyond. The kitchen itself is quite large, with a big island bench that is illuminated by triple pendants. There are stone bench tops and the cabinetry is matt black, with all of the appliances are from Asko, including a dishwasher. There is a seamless European laundry and a discreet powder room, so nobody has to traipse upstairs.

Stairs usher upward to two peaceful bedrooms, both with walk-in-robes and ensuite bathrooms. The master bedroom spills to a balcony and again, captures magnificent views across to the mountains. While the second bedroom also opens to a balcony, that floats you above the open, parkland surrounds.

Lawson is a sought-after enclave surrounded by Henry Lawson Reservoir Hill. Extending a vibrant community spirit, it is home to SV Coffee and Bakery, run out of the barrister’s home – a famous local gathering spot. It is an easy stroll to multiple parks and green areas on the shores of Lake Ginninderra. The home is also whisper close to the vast green spaces of Reservoir Hill and just a few steps to Lawson Central Community Playground. All the exciting cafes, restaurants and shops of the Belconnen precinct are just moments away. Whisper close to the inner-north and the CBD the home is also amenable to the UC, AIS, GIO Stadium and Calvary Hospital.
