5c Murdoch Street, Lyneham, ACT 2602

Superb location just moments from so many attractions!

Warmth and richness abound within this stunning modern three-bedroom ensuite townhouse, as custom joinery takes pride of place, ushering in an elevated refinement. Arrayed across two levels, the home privatises the sleeping zone, leaving downstairs for family life and easy entertaining. There is a choice of social spaces, each styled to accommodate different moods, rituals…the home spilling to a generous and leafy courtyard garden.

Ideally placed on a quiet oak lined street, moments from the light rail and a stone's throw from the Dickson precinct and the CBD. Shared walking and biking paths wind their way through green spaces, and it is a hop, skip & jump from Lyneham High School, a leafy walk to Lyneham shops and the famous Tilley's Divine Café.

Raw brick, timber panelling and floating box balconies create a distinctly contemporary feel, while paying homage to classic ex-govie's that dot the area. No 5C sitting shy behind a glorious liquid amber, banks of azaleas and a clipped hedging. 

The front veranda runs the length of the home, creating a gently elevated garden nook. Step inside to the living room, so considered with its dark walls and elegant installation of bespoke joinery. The vast square window framing the landscape like a painting, screened by white plantation shutters. There is the distinct feel of a luxury hotel and a call to cosy movie nights, playing music or just quiet times for reading and relaxing. 

The family hub is all light and bright, punctuated to the north by glass sliders that open to the expansive landscaped courtyard. Here kitchen, dining and living combine with an airy grace and wonderful connection to the outdoors. The living space edged with beautifully designed walnut cabinetry, echoing the front living room. 

The kitchen is all grace and ease, with long stone worktops, textured kit kat tiling and banks of white cabinetry. There are quality appliances from AEG and a large step-in-pantry, combining to make life easy. The whole space extending into the garden, with its clever timber screen that doubles down as bench seating. The serene courtyard is full of flowering trees and plants, including Japanese maples, camelia, magnolia, mandarin, climbing jasmine and a lovely crepe myrtle. 

Upstairs cosy carpets stretch underfoot and skylights draw natural light into both the bathroom and landing. The master drifts to a private balcony, floating you among the autumnal turnings of the trees. There is both a storage cupboard and walk-in-robe and an elegant ensuite bathroom. Bedroom two delivers a step-in-robe and a wall of custom cabinetry with built-in murphy bed – this room is wonderfully flexible for use as a bedroom or large study if desired. The third bedroom has a built-in-robe and a large window that frames leafy views. 

Also on this level is an inset study nook within the hallway and the lovely family bathroom which boasts a bathtub. Completing the picture is secure basement parking for two, a large storage room with internal stairwell access from the rear courtyard. 

The central locale of this coveted inner north suburb gifts an exciting urban lifestyle, connecting you to the independent eateries and bars of O'Connor, Braddon and Dickson. The light rail is a short walk away, whisking you easily to the CBD and the metro city station connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
