Open spaces to enjoy in this popular development!

This tranquil two-bedroom ensuite apartment serves up a duo of airy social areas that spill to outside, floating you among the trees. This is Karelia Park – neatly arrayed, low-level buildings sitting pretty within the park-like grounds. No. 1, tucked away within a leafy pocket just a short stroll to the endless expanses of Mt Majura Reserve. It is a world away from the stresses of city life, yet within arm’s reach of the enticing Dickson and Braddon precinct and a short light rail ride from the CBD.

There is a lovely elevation and privacy to the outlook, the front living area drifting to a balcony, with views across the central gardens. The kitchen sits central and handy to both the front living area and the dining/living space beyond. Banks of white cabinetry meet speckled worktops and every inch of space is given over to storage, ensuring a spot for everything, so things can be kept minimal. We love the practical design that lends itself to effortless meals, easy take-away or hosting the whole gang. There is a new oven and cooktop from Westinghouse and dishwasher from Bosch.

The dining/living space has big glass sliders that open wide, spilling to an enormous balcony that overlooks the natural beauty of the tree dotted grounds. The balcony reads like an extension of the lived space, sheltered and private, with room to dine and lounge alfresco.

The master bedroom makes the most of the outlook too, with its big window framing a leafy canopy. This peaceful room serves up a built-in-robe and an elegant ensuite bathroom with a relaxing corner spa bath. The second bedroom has a built-in-robe and sits adjacent to the family bathroom which cleverly includes an internal laundry with a new tub and a wall hung dryer. Throw-in basement parking with storage and you have an inner-city haven, with lots of space, and light, alongside the perfect inside/outside fusion.

Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes and fabulous local shops – enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is a nice stroll to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer’s Market. The Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD are all close to hand. Maliyan park and playground is within walking distance and the home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools and also close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
