6/38 Torrens Street
Braddon$555,000 +

This gorgeous two bedroom apartment is perfectly tucked away on the first floor and spills to a long balcony. The scheme is soft and neutral and living is arranged in a conversational open plan, so you can entertain friends before you head out to explore all the enticements of Braddon, Lonsdale Street and the CBD.

There is a classic old world feel to Braddon Gardens, with its broad paved common patio and epic central gardens. How lovely it is to wend your way through the pathways, beneath the leafy trees, neatly clipped topiary and purple flowering agapanthus. We love the terracotta tiled rooftops, the nostalgic arched windows and the red brick detailing. No.6 accessible via an airy stairwell, with a cool art deco vibe, black balustrade and patterned black and white floor tiling, alongside roughly trowelled white walls.

With brand new carpet that stretches to meet freshly painted white walls, as glass sliders forge a wonderful connection to outdoors. The kitchen occupies an area that serves up speckled worktops, banks of cabinetry and all electric appliances, including a dishwasher. Laughter and chatter can flow back and forth across the dining and living area which is big enough for a dedicated study area.

The master bedroom delivers a walk-in-robe and bedside glimpses of trees that change their colours throughout the seasons. The second bedroom with its big window welcomes light and aspect and serves up a built-in-robe. The bathroom is big, finished in crisp white with pretty Florentine feature tiling that nods to the European flair of Braddon Gardens. There is a relaxing bath and a laundry, neatly tucked away in the corner.

This popular locale connects you to some of the best independent cafes, bakeries, yoga studios, boutiques, bars and restaurants that Canberra has to offer. The famous Lonsdale Street is just a stones throw away.

Throw in a surrounding of tranquil green spaces, including Haig Park and Mt Ainslie Reserve and you have the best of urban living, with a restful dollop of country peace. Close to transport including light rail, providing fast links to all of Canberra, the home is also just a stone’s throw from the ANU, New Acton and Civic/CBD
