31 Marsden St, Dickson ACT 2602

The big front living area has enough room to include a big dining table, set beneath the window. Think a generosity of light and space and long lunches with views across the garden or elegant candlelit dinner parties. You can flow directly to the central kitchen combined meals area or privatise both spaces via clever pocket sliders.

The kitchen has been updated and is arranged in an efficient galley style, with a big window above the double sink, welcoming northern light deep into the whole space. The white cabinetry has a subtle provincial air and the worktops deliver a note of patterned grey. There is lots of storage and space for a big family sized fridge, nicely tucked away down one end. A dishwasher from Fisher & Paykel adds to the ease of daily meals and there is a nice conversational vibe, back and forth from the meals table.

The second living space sits adjacent to the master bedroom, creating the feel of a parental retreat. The bedroom is blessed by afternoon light and there is ample room for a comfy lounge chair set beneath the window. A wall of mirrored robes takes care of storage and there is the privacy of an ensuite bathroom. You can easily step from bedroom to living area, where a wall of glass allows you to commune with the clipped shapes within the garden. Or think first morning coffee on the sheltered rear porch. There is also a laundry on the northern side which is roomy enough to twig thoughts of versatility…home office or palatial dressing room springs to mind.

The other end of the home is given over to a sequestered children's wing, where three bedrooms sit close to a family bathroom with a relaxing corner spa bath. The front room is the spacious, serving up lots of storage and a big window that captures the garden. The bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling that introduces an opulent marbling of soft pinks. A pretty Florentine floral border and a threading of gold adds to the romantic mood.

Resting on the curve of the looping Marsden Street, the home is a few steps from Wetlands, Playgrounds, Ovals and a short stroll to the endless trails that traverse Mt Ainslie Reserve. Think green spaces for the kids to play, long strolls beneath the trees and an endless variety of dog walks. The home also promises a well-connected inner north lifestyle, with great community, shops, cafes, restaurants, schools, right at your doorstep. It is an easy stroll to several schools, including Dickson and Daramalan College. You can walk to the bustling Dickson precinct and it is not far to Braddon's vibrant scene. The home is also handy to the village centres of Ainslie, Downer, Lyneham, Watson and O'Connor and close to transport including the light rail, whisking you straight to the CBD and the ANU.
