2 Hawdon St, Ainslie ACT 2602

A corridor leads to two secluded bedrooms, both with leafy outlooks. A spacious, modern bathroom with open shower, bathtub and moody black accents surprises and yet perfectly ties with the feeling of privacy and cosiness that the original cottage evokes.

Beyond the front cottage, a soaring light-well beckons you to discover its secrets and leads you seamlessly from timber flooring to burnished concrete. Light pours through the north facing, enormous sliding glass doors that open onto a large deck and out to the gardens. The hallway leads to a second private living space with a wall of sliding glass that extends the room out while beyond there is a large rear bedroom and tucked beneath the stairs – a considered and efficient laundry with separate toilet.

Within the lofty space of the light well, a quality timber staircase takes you skyward, to the enormous master bedroom with modern ensuite and fantastic, aerial views out and over treetops the whole room gathered and held by a magnificent Linden tree.

With bespoke timber windows and doors throughout, hydronic heating, perfect solar aspect, vegetable and herb beds, established trees and a charming pottery shed, which could be converted into a wonderful studio space, this is a home of enduring quality and depth.

A marriage of textures incorporating wood, concrete, raw brick, and fresh white walls create an inspiring and robust four bedroom home. Created with a seamless balance of light, position, volume, space, indoor and outdoor, old and new all further engendering an expansive forever home that seamlessly juggles variety and cohesion. The flexibility of the living and sleeping spaces offer a variety of living/working arrangements and easily meet the changing, growing needs of your family over time.

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the homes' pivotal Ainslie locale, will allow you to flourish within green spaces, older community values while still being connected to all the innovative, changing, invigorating offerings of the inner north.
