Verdant treetops, big sky, the feeling of peace and the luxury of space…this gorgeous two-bedder is arrayed across two levels and spills to a big balcony that overlooks parkland. The apartment manages a magical balancing act true escape from the stresses of city life and well-connected pad, with the vibrancy of community, the buzz of café and restaurant life, right at your doorstep.

It is a short stroll through the pine dotted Haig Park to the Braddon hub, with its artful mix of shops, bakeries, yoga studies, café’s, bars and restaurants. You can also walk to the city form here, or meander to the charming Ainslie Village, with its award winning IGA and welcoming community buzz. All-in-all it’s a fab locale, front and central to all the inner north hubs, handy to walking and biking trails, transport, reserve and with a big park/playground just next door.

The build is handsome, all clean lines, raw brick, smooth render with crisp white balconies. Neat hedges and well-tended gardens soften the edges and airy open walkways run the length of the buildings, ushering you to your front door. No.16 enjoying a lovely elevation that literally floats you within the tree canopies. And we love the plan living arranged on the ground floor and sleeping nicely sequestered above.

Golden timber floors flow underfoot; walls are soothingly neutral and lots of sunlight tumbles through the big windows and glass sliders. The kitchen is cute and oh so functional, perfect for plating takeout or serving up home cooked meals. The mood is chatty and relaxed across the open plan, where living and dining is informed by and easy spill to outside and the always calming presence of nature.

Both bedrooms are big and airy and graced with light. The master has an elegant ensuite bathroom and both rooms deliver built-in-robes for seamless storage. There is also a second bathroom with a relaxing bathtub. Both bathrooms are paired back, think white on white with earthy ceramic floors. Throw in secure basement parking for two cars and a European laundry and you have easy living in a great position, well connected and immersed within restorative greenery.

Lowanna St is perfectly positioned for an endless selection of cafes, bars, restaurants while offering the restorative peace of ample green spaces, including all the biking and walking trails of Mt Ainslie. The Braddon precinct extends a vast array of independent stores, great hospitality venues, bakeries, yoga studios… There is the famous Asian and international cuisine of the Dickson precinct and not far, the village charm of Ainslie shops with its much loved IGA and gastro pub. The CBD is whisper close and with buses and light rail at your doorstep you can ditch the car, easily exploring the whole of Canberra.
