1 Crisp St, Higgins ACT 2615

A driveway ushers to a single garage with the convenience of internal access. While entry is via a long foyer…light and bright with painted brick walls and light ceramic floors. The front door flanked by sidelight and all aglow with decorative stained glass detailing.

Arranged in an open semi-circular plan, living and dining is informed by huge windows that frame the pretty gardens. There is an abundance of light and a soothing combo of creamy white walls and rich timber floors. Fixed cabinetry in one corner gifts a spot for a home library and chosen display of objects. The brushed brass handles consistent throughout the whole house, forging a gentle threading of gold.

The kitchen is a bright pop of green, bringing a little piece of the garden indoors. There is plenty of storage, including a full-height pantry and electric appliances including a dishwasher. Worktops are a crisp white and there is a large bay window above the sink, welcoming light and lovely views across the beautifully planted back garden.

A slender hallway ushers to three peaceful bedrooms and a family bathroom with separate toilet. Two bedrooms open via glass sliders onto a tranquil private courtyard garden that teams with delicate ferns. The high garden walls and shade cloth shelter, welcoming a cooling natural mood, a feeling of both openness and privacy. The third bedroom also opens to embrace outdoor living, with sliders that connect to a screened outdoor room. Think alfresco getaway, entertaining with friends or handy kids' playroom.

There is a custom barbecue area with a pizza oven, perfect for nights with friends and relaxed family meals. Delightful gardens curve around the home, soft lawn edging a variety of garden beds, brimming with flowering trees and a myriad of mixed plantings. There is a lovely alfresco nook, set to one side for quieter garden moments. There is also a greenhouse for nurturing seedlings and extensive vegetable gardens, gifting a "garden to plate" experience for both kids and adults.

Higgins is a family friendly, quiet enclave known for its leavy streets, parkland and fantastic proximity to the Belconnen precinct, offering a bevy of shopping and dining experiences. The home is an easy drive to the Kippax Shopping Centre, a variety of parklands and the Bicentennial National Trail. It is not far to a variety of schools, transport, Lake Ginninderra, the AIS and UC. The home is a mere 15 minutes to the CBD.
