228 22 Lonsdale Street, Braddon ACT 2612

This warm-hearted one-bedroom epitomises simple living at its well-connected best. Think a feeling of quiet remove and the anchoring tones of honeyed timber, gallery white. Lonsdale Street unfurls at your feet…great community, buzzing cafés, a feast of great shopping, food, and drink. The home soaks up the horizon and welcomes a continuity of daylight as open-plan living spills to the east. The sheltered balcony extends the lived experience to meet the horizon so you can commune with mountains before heading out into the bright energy of the city. The apartment is housed on the second floor of Mode 3 and is accessed via a broad plaza and generous private foyer. Mode 3 is a sought-after boutique development known for its central location, elegant proportions, and accessible plans. Slip out for a morning brew at Barrio Collective, lunch with friends at Café June after yoga, take home artisan ceramics from Hive, grab some fresh sourdough from Sonoma…it's all at your doorstep. Within high concrete ceilings nod to the history of Braddon with its intoxicating mash of old and new. We love the use of stainless steel mesh, the way it floats the downlighting in place, and the juxtaposition of the cool industrial vibe against the use of ample warm timber. The kitchen floats in place all organic and welcoming - stone worktops, finely grained cabinetry. New carpet introduces timeless charcoal grey to the mix and stretches soft underfoot. The whole apartment is imbued with a simplicity that speaks of a well-organised life, allowing you to focus, explore, enjoy. The bedroom with its generous built-in robe faces east so you can wake to sunrise colouring the horizon. Think coffee in bed on weekend mornings, bathed in warm sunshine. The bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling and serves up a concordant industrial vibe. Throw in a generous internal laundry with washing machine and dryer and secure basement parking and your refuge is complete. Head out on the town by day or night, returning to restore within your little haven of light with its gorgeously abundant views. A famous mix of old and new informs a thriving, eclectic urban culture - a haven for expressive cafés, restaurants, bars, boutiques. Just a few steps from Haig Park, this dynamic, central locale also places you within walking distance to the CBD, ANU, and the New Acton precinct. Dickson, Ainslie and O'Connor shops are all close to hand. Throw in ample green spaces, walking and biking trails, Mt Ainslie reserve, and you have an enviable city/village mix. The home is also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra. features: .elegant one-bedroom apartment poised above the buzzing Braddon precinct .part of the popular Mode 3 building .housed on the second floor .accessible design .open plan living, dining, kitchen that flows to a sheltered balcony .warming eastern orientation and lots of natural light .views across old Braddon to the mountains .generous east-facing bedroom with built-in robe .modern kitchen with stone bench tops, central island, warm timber cabinetry and Bosch appliances including a dishwasher .European laundry with dryer and washing machine .bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiling .brand new carpet .RC split system within the bedroom .RC ducted heating and cooling .one underground car space plus storage .secure intercom access .central locale offering the best that central Canberra and the inner north has to offer .seeded within a plethora of boutiques, restaurants, bars, gyms, and yoga studios .easy stroll to Haig Park, home to the Haig Park Markets .close to transport including the light rail FINE DETAILS (all approximate): Living size: 65 m2 (approx.)
