About this property
Quiet Position, Reserve Backing A home that instantly welcomes, connected to intentional spaces and calm surroundings. Backing directly onto Mt Ainslie, it offers a beautiful sense of privacy that's becoming increasingly rare in the Inner North. Perfectly positioned within a considered, low-maintenance garden, the home carries an easy, relaxed atmosphere, quietly tucked away, yet moments from everything that makes the Inner North so sought-after. Surrounded by decks, there's a space to enjoy at every turn. The expansive living area is filled with natural light, with skylights enhancing brightness and a charming wood fire heater to cary the warmth throughout the space. The connection between indoors and the surrounding decks is seamless, supporting easy movement between living areas and outdoors. Beautifully landscaped gardens that attract native birdlife and the occasional echidna. The kitchen and adjoining servery, complete with bifold doors, open directly to the decks, extending the functional living space. Floor-to-ceiling timber doors and windows draw natural light deep into the home, creating a sense of openness throughout. Accommodation comprises three comfortable bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes, serviced by a particularly light-filled central bathroom. A double garage and additional carport provide generous parking and storage, while the layout offers flexibility for a range of living arrangements. Positioned in one of Hackett's most tightly held pockets, a location that completes the picture. With Mt Ainslie directly at the back door and Mount Majura nature trails just moments away, the setting offers an immediate connection to the outdoors. Local shops, schools and transport are all within easy reach, while the Inner North's cafés, markets and city access remain conveniently close. This is an address that supports both day-to-day ease and long-term appeal.
