39 Frencham Street, Downer, ACT 2602

Part of a stunning collective of architecturally designed homes, this elegant townhouse delivers on street appeal, easy living and a well-connected and oh so enticing inner north lifestyle. There is a wonderful drift to courtyards on two sides, with an immersive natural vibe, steeped in peaceful privacy. 
We love the subtle palette that combines timber notes, stone, crisp whites in an elegant homage to the local bush surrounds. 

The front living room opens via glass sliders to a sunken terrace, with red brick garden walls and soft plantings. A stunning kitchen is arranged at one end, informed by sunlight  connects to courtyards, both front and back. There is a floating island, stone worktops, subway tiled splash backs and banks of storage in laminated oak. The open conversational mood, perfect for both quiet togetherness and convivial entertaining. 

The private wing is upstairs and houses two generous bedrooms, both with built-in-robes for seamless storage. The master bedroom light and bright, with views to the mountains, via huge windows, and there is an easy drift to an elegant ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom also captures the landscape and sits adjacent to a gorgeous family bathroom. 

Both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling in a combination of crisp white and earthy river stone. There is a large vanity for seamless storage and the convenience of a private carport with auto-door and easy access to the home via the rear courtyard.

The neat lines of townhouses are nostalgic of the Victorian Terrace with their narrow two-storey form, classic red brick faces and gabled rooflines. The Bradfield was designed by AMC Architecture, an award-winning firm known for transforming urban sites into beautiful and sustainable buildings. The elegant mix of apartments and townhouses are arranged around central gardens that re-imagine the old Downer School yard and foster communal spirit and connection. 

Downer shops and the famous, Gang Gang café, one of the few intimate venues remaining, showcasing celebrated and innovative musicians and hosting sociable trivia nights and fab flea markets. The Dickson precinct is moments away for essential services, shopping and international cuisine. And the area is rich in parklands with Downer playing fields, Melba Street Park, Downer Micro-Forest and the walking trails of Mt Ainslie, all close to hand. The home is walking distance to schools and transport, including the light rail, whisking you straight to the CBD, which is an easy 13 minutes by car.
