Live opposite Deakin Village in this spacious and light-filled family home

Living opposite the local shops has its advantages. A professionally made coffee within ambling distance is high on the list.

Directly opposite Deakin Village, this elegant four-bedroom home puts one of the Inner South’s handiest little shopping strips practically on your doorstep.

Inside, generous proportions are matched by plenty of natural light, with north and west-facing living spaces soaking up the sunshine throughout the day. Formal lounge and dining rooms provide more traditional spaces for entertaining, while the kitchen, family and meals area forms the relaxed heart of the home.

The kitchen is well equipped with stone benchtops and Bosch appliances, and opens onto the adjoining living spaces and two sun-filled courtyards. Surrounded by landscaped gardens, they provide private spots for long lunches, morning coffee or simply following the sun.

Upstairs, the main bedroom has its own balcony, built-in wardrobes and a generous en suite with a bath and separate shower. Two further bedrooms include built-in robes, while another balcony sits off bedroom two.

The fourth bedroom on the ground floor offers a little more flexibility. With its own off-street access and adjacent powder room, it could easily become a home office or additional living room.

Recently painted and re-carpeted, the home also includes ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning and a double garage with internal access. And with Deakin Village and Canberra Girls Grammar within walking distance, the car might spend rather more time parked there.

Need to know

Deakin is where Australia makes its money, quite literally. The Royal Australian Mint produces the country’s circulating coins, with visitors able to peer down onto the factory floor and see the process in action.
