3 Gillies St, Curtin ACT 2605

The main residence instantly wraps you in a big, warm hug, imbued by the idyllic northerly aspect. Think beautiful Blackbutt timber floors, soft natural light pouring through double-glazed windows, and long, leafy views out to the parkland beyond. Every corner has been carefully considered, from the sleek, renovated kitchen (with views to that iconic tower), two renovated bathrooms, and a thoughtfully designed laundry making daily tasks a breeze. Generous bedrooms span one easy care level, with plentiful space and built-ins for the whole crew, brand new wool carpet underfoot and flexibility in spades. The fourth bedroom is refreshingly large. Use it as a rumpus, or whatever your life needs, this home flexes with you.

Modernised for comfort; you'll discover subtle hints of the past, including the original 1960s floorplan and retro detailing, providing notable character.

With a double auto garage under, and cellar/storage room with sink, time to tinker is provided. Additionally, there is a carport and plenty of off-street parking for your toys or trailer. With the Curtin shops a mere 500 metres stroll away, you can leave your car at home, whilst you enjoy a cheeky after work vino and dinner at your favourite local.

Now let's talk about the bonus of another dwelling.

With its own gated entrance and private landscaped garden with firepit, a fully self-contained 1-bedroom residence with separate living area, kitchenette and bathroom, offer immense possibilities. Work, live, host, or rent.

Framed by established hedging, this is the perfect opportunity and private oasis for extended family, teen retreat, gym, home office, or guests who won't want to leave.

Overlooking a sundrenched paved courtyard with a superb backdrop of greenery and direct access to the park, this single-level property, offers broad appeal, versatility, and excellent income potential.

The lifestyle of this home is outstanding. At the end of your street, the vibrant shops boast numerous cafes, restaurant options, a major supermarket, bottle-shop, medical, beauty, fitness, newsagent, post office, and more. For families, a playground is around the corner and schools within the catchment area include Curtin Primary, Alfred Deakin High School, and Canberra College. Walking and bike trails meander through the suburb, and provide easy accessibility to Woden, the city and other popular hubs. Start your day with a morning walk through Curtin Ridge, or a weekend bike ride to the zoo or lake.
