29/11 Fawkner Street, Braddon, ACT, 2612, Australia

This unique, renovated city fringe apartment offers a house-like feel while just a stone's throw from Lonsdale Street and the CBD.

The warm but elevated feel of this home really starts before you even get to your front door. Well-maintained gardens and amenities, including a community veggie/herb garden, a gazebo and a swimming pool, all have regular maintenance and cleaning carried out by the active body corporate.

The apartment itself continues to impress. It offers an immediate sense of space and peace, due to its generous footprint and views into leafy tree canopy from every room. You can see the thought and care that has gone into renovating this beautiful home. The kitchen is the centrepiece downstairs, with an enormous island bench and statement splashback, and I love how the stove is on the island, so you can be engaging with people in your living room while you cook, or simply gaze out into the lush greenery from your living room and balcony windows.

One of the things I kept noticing on my first visit here was the absolute abundance of storage. There really is no wasted space, which maximises your living space and makes tidying up a breeze. There are some great hidden storage areas here, but my favourite has to be the bookcase upstairs, which opens to reveal a terrific attic space for larger items.

The morning sun-drenched living room and balcony create perfect nooks to curl up and enjoy the peaceful views out to Mount Ainslie, after a quick stroll around the corner to Haig Park Market or Sonoma on a Sunday morning. With limited traffic passing through Fawkner Street, and an avenue of mature pin oak trees, this apartment is a unique oasis in the heart of Braddon.
