4/37 Ipima Street, Braddon, ACT 2612

One of the finest townhouses within the 'Allenby complex'

A significant and beautiful renovation has filled the home with a magic feel, it is superb from the moment you step inside. Designed for seamless indoor/outdoor living this executive style four-bedroom ensuite townhouse enjoys a connection to a private courtyard garden. The whole home reading like a curated sanctuary on the edge of the city.

The stunning kitchen celebrates the open space, with cabinetry running the length of two walls and dining taking centre stage. A huge cut-out gifts a window between the two, large social spaces, so conversation can flow back-and-forth. French doors welcome light and cool breezes and on colder nights the gas fireplace gifts a warming spot to gather and just enjoy the serenity. 

Full-height walnut cabinetry delivers seamless storage that includes an integrated Liebherr fridge and freezer, pantry and stone topped coffee station. Quality appliances from Bosch, including a dishwasher complete an impressive picture.

Plantation shutters filter a soft garden light, the master bedroom privatised downstairs and overlooking the leafy frontage. There is a ceiling fan, warm carpet, and a walk-in-robe with custom shelving and drawers. The ensuite is pure luxury, with a rain-shower and warm natural finishes including stone and timber. 

Upstairs is given over to three lovely bedrooms, all with excellent storage and large windows that capture treetop views. Plantation shutters and soft carpet keep things muted and inviting and timber ceiling fans keep things cool for sleeping. The family bathroom echoes the downstairs wet area, all softly patterned organic tiles, stone counter, timber fluted vanity, brushed brass hardware, with a frameless glass shower and deep relaxing bathtub.

The Allenby complex has a certain leafy seclusion that belies its central locale, moments from the vibrant Braddon scene and edging the CBD. Elegant rows of executive townhouses are fronted by avenues of trees, layers of pretty plantings. No.4 is nicely secluded within the back corner, is accessed via an elevated veranda and gives off an arty Chelsea vibe – rendered form, brick embellishments, simple portico, black doors and ironwork. 

The home is an easy stroll to Haig Park and Lonsdale Street, famous for its eclectic range of restaurants, cafes, unique boutiques, fantastic coffee, and thriving bars. It is moments to the village centre of Ainslie, with its famous IGA and boutique eateries. You are also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
