This elegant three-bedroom townhouse is ideally placed on a quiet, tree lined street right on the edge of the CBD. Surrounded by parklands and moments from Canberra’s best bars, cafes and restaurants, the home is arrayed across two generous levels and takes in elevated views across Turner.

Within the home low maintenance timber look floors flow underfoot, stretching to meet expanses of soft white walls, as high ceilings add to the airy feel. The formal living area overlooks the front courtyard and has the distinction of a bespoke study nook, nicely recessed within the generous space, taking care of working, studying, creating from home.

Living flows to a dining area that is nicely conversational with the corner kitchen. Glass sliders can be opened to breezes, spilling to a second courtyard with shade sail so you can lounge alfresco in comfort. From here steps usher to secure basement parking for two with storage. There is also direct gated access to the side lane, cutting through to Henty Street, Turner Primary and Turner School, and connecting to Turner Parkland and Haig Park.

We love the luxurious marble worktops and the pearlescent textured splash back. The kitchen demure yet assured, with banks of white cabinetry and cup handles in a blush of gold. There is ample storage, including a full-height pantry with chrome shelving system. Quality appliances from Miele make family meals and entertaining a breeze and include an integrated dishwasher.

Upstairs features a central lightwell that welcomes beams of natural light. The master bedroom opens via sliders to a private balcony, among the trees. There is a wall of mirrored robes and a timeless ensuite bathroom, all art-deco, black and white, with a touch of marbled grey.

Two additional spacious bedrooms with built-in-robes centre around a generous family bathroom with relaxing bathtub. Both stunning bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling that artfully combines various textures and muted tones. We love the mosaic floor tiling, the inverted subway pattern on the walls and the linear shelving in grey marble. Large, mirrored shaving cabinets gift ample storage and there are luxury rain-shower fixtures in matt black.

This little pocket of peace is wonderfully close to all the eateries and bars of O’Connor and Braddon. It is an easy stroll to Turner Parkland and the old growth pines of Haig Park, a stone’s throw to the ANU and the CBD. Catch up with friends on the weekend, for drinks or barefoot bowls, at the RUC, stroll through parkland to the fabulous O’Connor shops with local favs including – Flatheads, The Duxton, Tu Do and Supaexpess. Stroll to the Braddon hub, with its myriads of unique restaurants, bars, and boutique shopping experiences. The home is also close to private and public schools, transport including light rail and the new metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
