This fabulous 1960’s home feels authentic and invitingly nostalgic, while modern updates engender a delightful ease of living. There is a soothing simplicity and balance to this vintage three-bedder which rests on a big flat block that feels ripe for creative invention.

Although gorgeous as is, one could also imagine a contemporary addition or perhaps your own creative vision brought to life, given the generous parcel of land, taking full advantage of the beautiful light and privacy.
And the location is superb – steps away from Pearce Shops (weekend barista coffee or date night at your local) and ultra-handy to Chifley shops, Southlands Mawson, Woden Precinct, and a glorious surrounding of parks, ovals and bushland reserve.

The classic blonde brick form feels quintessential Australian, tugging at the heart strings and evoking memories of an idyllic suburban life. Think long driveway, simple carport and long front terrace edged with a decorative wrought iron balustrade. There is so much potential here, the easy garden block a blank canvas, extending toward the magical presence of Mt Taylor. It’s the kind of location that makes you want to put down roots, think forever home, a wonderful blend of old and new or exciting and sustainable new build (STA), on a generous block with lots of room for family life to unfold with grace.

We love the vintage touches – timber panelling, mid-century fixed cabinetry and big windows that capture light and landscape. There is a big and airy front living area that flows to a kitchen combined meals. The kitchen has been updated and delivers lots of storage and sleek modern appliances. Three welcoming bedrooms, all with built-in-robes centre around an updated family bathroom – floor-to-ceiling tiling, earthy floors and a relaxing bathtub. There is the convenience of a separate toilet and an internal laundry that flows outside. The scheme is concordantly light and simple – creamy white walls and soft carpets that add a splash of grounding charcoal grey.

Offering pure potential and a standout location, it’s time to make your move, and enjoy the exceptional lifestyle this home provides. For further details contact Rick and Tina Meir on 0408 588 770.

Life in Pearce-
The tranquillity and proximity to parkland and reserve lends a rare sense of rural peace so close to Woden and the CBD. Birds sing in the trees and there is a friendly community of people enjoying the parklands and the meandering trails of Mt Taylor.
