5 Dunn Place, Hackett, ACT 2602

Quiet location and tightly held cul-de-sac!

This pleasant home is anchored in nature, framing and spilling to an oasis of greenery, with plenty of spaces for the kids to play and explore. While beyond the garden gate, open parkland welcomes, inviting to the endless bushland trails of Mt Majura and Mt Ainslie Nature Reserves. And the locale is perfection – sleepy cul-de-sac in a brilliant inner north location.

The home is nicely set behind pretty deep front gardens and has a welcoming front patio, balustraded in lovely wrought iron. It's the kind of frontage that makes you look forward to coming home.

This privately built four-bedroom family home has all the blonde brick stylings of yesteryear, combined with just enough updates to cater for a modern family life. You step into a broad entry foyer and then into the beautiful big living area, where epic corner windows draw an abundance of light, this space enjoying all the colours and moods of the front garden. From here there is a wonderful open connection to the dining combined kitchen. The kitchen nods to the organic surrounds with its warm timber toned cabinetry, earthy grey tiling and relaxed open arrangement. Appliances are all electric and include a sleek stainless-steel dishwasher and there is plenty of space for the family to gather, moving easily from inside-to-out.

A breakfast bar sits beneath the large window within the dining space and doors open onto the broad deck. Think, whole summers, cooled by climbing vines and the reassuring calm of your own private oasis. There is enough space here for a large table, set for plenty, so you can sit back and spend precious time with the people you love.

The enormous timber deck stretches to meet the layered garden…mature leafy canopies shade and enclose, while neatly clipped box hedging edges crushed granite.

A slender hallway links together four bedrooms, all with built-in-storage and large glazing's that commune with landscape. The fourth bedroom has glass sliders, so you can step outside, coffee in hand and greet the birdlife and the botanical bliss. There is also a large family bathroom with a concordant timber toned vanity and the warm country feel of painted timber panelling.

The home is handy to the dynamic precincts of Dickson and Braddon and is amenable to the charming inner-north centres of Ainslie, O'Connor and Lyneham, extending a vibrant mix of independent cafés and shops. The local shops are at hand for all essentials with the fabulous IGA and it is not far to the restaurants and cafes of Downer and Watson. Close to transport and a variety of schools , the home is enviably positioned, an easy from the ANU and CBD.
