74/9 Braybrooke Street, Bruce, ACT 2617

Also known as 74/9 Braybrooke Street, Bruce

Convenient location within walking distance of so many attractions!

This stunning three-bedroom ensuite townhouse is part of a row of homes known as The Bowery. Set back behind deep verges on Thynne Street, the homes live up to their namesake, as purple leafed Manchurian pear trees and green walls, shade and enclose. No. 79 is open to the world on one side, edged by grassland and leafy Eucalypts taking full advantage of both the light and aspect, drifting to the outdoors on two sides.

The form sets the scene, all beautiful smoky grey timber cladding set against red brick with pops of midnight black. The front courtyard is deep and shady and there is a broad timber deck. We love the industrial metal stairs and the iron window awnings, the louvre blades angled to filter the sunshine.

The industrial notes continue within, as dark hybrid timber floors and black framed doors and windows usher in a cool NY loft vibe. There is a lovely balance of social spacious to suit the mood and occasion. The generous lounge room spilling deck side and taking in the grassy front garden. While beyond a sweeping open plan family hub houses the kitchen, living and dining. This is a great space, perfect for family life and entertaining, spilling to a wraparound glass balcony that looks out across to the trees and open space. 

The kitchen is sleek, with banks of crisp white cabinetry, pops of walnut and black stone worktops with just a hint of sparkle. The splashback is sea green and there are quality appliances from Bosch, including an integrated microwave, electric oven, gas hob and dishwasher. Think easy family meals, large celebrations, relaxed take-away from your choice of local favs…it can do it all with an open breezy appeal, glass sliders welcoming the outdoors in.

Upstairs is given over to three bedrooms, all with built-in-robes and soft carpeting in charcoal grey. The light filled master bedroom is sequestered to the north and has an elegant ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with a bathtub and there is the bonus of a separate powder room. 

The lower ground floor houses a large double garage with auto door and access from Braybrooke Street. There is also a generous internal laundry down here and direct access to the lift, whisking you effortlessly to every floor of the home. 

The central location of Bruce, places you close to all the dynamic shops, restaurants and cafes of the Belconnen and the surrounding areas. It is an easy walk to various local eateries, including Café Momo for jumbo coffees and Buddha bowls and Qure for curry night or mini pizzas. The exciting new mixed development, Ives is nearby with the new IGA now open for all your essentials. Fern Hill Park and Gossman Nature Reserve are handy and there are plenty of top-grade sporting facilities – AIS, Canberra International Sports and Aquatic Centre and Canberra Stadium. Buses are at your doorstep, and it is an easy drive to the CBD.
