185 Mouat St, Lyneham ACT 2602

The home is privatised by mature hedges and has a driveway that leads to a parking bay, gated carport and garage beyond. Entry is secluded with tree ferns creating a leafy corner and a front porch edged by garden wall and leafy planter box.

The formal foyer offers a handy cupboard for storing coats. On the right a sunny living area beckons, spilling to a timber clad sunroom with a row of double glazed windows that welcome the eastern sunlight. Walls are freshly painted a soft white and new carpets stretch warm and soft underfoot.

We love the circular flow that journeys from living combined dining to kitchen, passing the powder room and laundry, onto generous second living space. The updated kitchen is a combo of white and gentle blue and feels so spacious. There is a dishwasher from Bosch and classic upright stove and oven from Westinghouse.

Plantation shutters filter the afternoon light and the second living area is both generous and serene. A peaked pergola provides shelter and a ramp gifts accessible access to the garden – a layering of mature hedges, soft lawn and enough space to entertain and escape from the nearby hustle and bustle.

The second level of the home is where three bedrooms enjoy elevated views, framing the old growth pines. The master is generous, with a walk-in-robe, while both additional rooms also have excellent storage. There is a renovated family bathroom finished in soft neutrals and just outside on the landing, a high set window captures falling light and looks toward Black Mountain.

The central locale of this beautiful inner north suburb connects you to the independent eateries and bars of Lyneham shops, and the Braddon and Dickson precincts. The home is an easy stroll to the Old Canberra Inn, the iconic Tilley's and local schools. There is a bus stop at your doorstep and a surrounding of green spaces, shared bike and walking paths, wetlands. The home is a stone's throw from the CBD and ANU.
