Tucked into a quiet Turner street, just moments from the ANU and the CBD, this generously proportioned home offers a rare blend of calm and connection. Cool, inviting interiors create a sense of retreat, a peaceful sanctuary that feels wonderfully removed, yet sits right on the edge of Canberra’s vibrant inner-north and city heart.

Thoughtfully updated while honouring its original character, the home unfolds with effortless flow. Open-plan living spills seamlessly to a generous north-facing courtyard with timber decking, the perfect setting for alfresco dinners, slow Sunday mornings or evenings beneath the stars. A second courtyard extends the sense of space and light, offering beautiful cross-ventilation and multiple places to retreat.

Northgate Gardens is one of those enduring Canberra complexes, admired for its quality construction, leafy surrounds and timeless design. There’s an authenticity here that stands apart from newer developments. Textural brickwork, established greenery and shared open lawns create a welcoming, community-minded atmosphere. Quiet and settled, yet wonderfully connected.

Inside, white-washed brick walls reflect the light, softening the generous living domain. The updated kitchen features quality appliances and a glass splashback, flowing easily into dining and lounge spaces before opening outdoors via sliding glass doors. High courtyard walls ensure privacy, while a rear gate provides direct access to Northbourne Avenue and the light rail, city living made beautifully simple.

The master bedroom opens directly to a sunny private courtyard, a gentle morning nook for coffee and contemplation. Both bedrooms are spacious, light-filled and peaceful, with excellent built-in storage. The bathroom is neat and functional, complete with bath and integrated laundry.
