Leafy Turner Living with Fresh Modern Touches…
Set within the leafy, established streets of Turner, this generously sized residence offers the perfect blend of space, comfort, and convenience. Freshly repainted and with new carpets throughout, it's ready for you to simply settle in and enjoy. With dual balconies that invite both relaxation and entertaining, you'll have your choice of outdoor settings for morning coffee, weekend barbecues, or simply unwinding in the fresh air.The location is hard to beat, just a short stroll to the O'Connor shops, local oval, and the Ipima Street Light Rail stop, connecting you with Canberra's CBD, Braddon's dining precinct, Dickson, and beyond.
Designed with versatility in mind, the free-flowing floorplan offers a thoughtful balance of open living and separation. Two distinct living zones, a spacious living room and an additional family room, provide the flexibility to adapt the home to your lifestyle. Whether you're setting up a formal lounge, a casual TV area, or even a work-from-home space, you'll appreciate the options this layout provides.
The heart of the home, the kitchen, is both stylish and practical. Featuring 20mm stone benchtops, stainless steel appliances, a dishwasher, and plentiful pantry and bench space, it's well-equipped for everything from quick midweek dinners to weekend entertaining. The layout ensures you can cook with ease while still being part of the conversation with family or guests.
Step outside and enjoy the choice of two outdoor spaces, a balcony and a private porch. These areas create the perfect backdrop for enjoying a quiet drink, reading in the sunshine, or hosting gatherings in a relaxed setting. With both options on offer, you can follow the sun or the shade throughout the day.
Accommodation is equally well-considered, with the two bedrooms positioned on opposite sides of the residence to maximise privacy. The main bedroom is generously sized, complete with a walk-in robe and a private ensuite, creating a comfortable retreat. The second bedroom offers mirrored sliding wardrobes and is conveniently located next to the main bathroom, which features full-height tiling, designer finishes, and a bathtub for that extra touch of comfort.
Life here offers more than just a home, it's a lifestyle. Stroll to the RUC in Turner for an afternoon drink or a friendly game of lawn bowls or hop on the nearby light rail for easy access to Canberra's most popular dining, shopping, and entertainment districts. Whether you're a live-in owner who values convenience, a first-home buyer entering the market, or an investor looking for a property with strong appeal, this residence ticks all the right boxes.
