Newly renovated yet celebrating its heritage charm, 4 Higgins Crescent in Ainslie is a beautiful three-bedroom, two-bathroom family home with plenty to get excited about.
The home has a unique blend of old and new with a classic Canberra exterior and a modern, renovated interior that still maintains the timeless charm of the original home.
“It’s very special to have a heritage home with two new bathrooms and a new kitchen – you can have it both ways here,” NBHD agent Ryan Hedley says.
Timber floors, a massive garden and a beautiful deck maintain that small, almost cottage-like feel despite its new additions.
The home has a practical open-plan kitchen next to a dining area large enough for a six-seat dining table – perfect for informal dinners or to help the kids with their homework as the evening meal is prepared. The kitchen and dining area flow to a large family room, and there’s also a large living room.
“The home has a lot of charm. It has a cottage kind of comfort, but it’s modern where it counts,” Ryan says.
The home’s foyer makes a stunning first impression. It’s practically a sunroom and does a great job of bringing the outside in.
Big windows, sun-drenched living spaces, wood touches and high ceilings make the home bright and warm throughout and add character wherever you turn.
The master bedroom has a walk-in closet and a beautifully updated ensuite with a shower, while the second bedroom has an even larger footprint. Both present wonderful leafy aspects from large windows.
The home is ideally set up for a family looking to live where the action is. Located in the inner north suburb of Ainslie right next to Limestone Avenue, it’s just about as central as a home can be.
But that amazing location near parks, schools and Civic doesn’t mean a compromise on space.
The property is set on a huge block that’s certain to excite anyone who loves to garden.
“It’s 1000 sqm of prime Ainslie land – there’s so much you could do with the space. There’s heaps of room for kids to enjoy, or it’d be easy to put on an extension to the home, while a green thumb could really go wild in the garden,” Ryan says.
The garden features established trees, lush green grass, a cubby house and veggie patches ready for planting.
“The outdoor space is beautifully set up. It easily accommodates a home gardener, and it’s wonderful to look at,” Ryan says.
The best place to relax and enjoy the garden is the deck. Accessed from the living space by big sliding doors, the deck gets heaps of sunlight, looking at it you can already picture mornings with a cup of coffee.
“It’s a great space. If you want to relax or entertain, there’s really nothing better than a deck, summer dinners, lazy Sundays watching the garden, inviting mates over … it’s all on the cards,” Ryan says.
The home embodies the best of what the inner north has to offer, with parks and schools nearby and the best shopping and food in Canberra within walking distance.
“It’s a lifestyle home, and it’s classically Ainslie. The combination of space and convenience makes this suburb so attractive. It’s so close to Corroboree Park and the city, the location is second to none,” Ryan says.
With a great location, stunning outdoor space and the charm of a historic home updated with modern additions, 4 Higgins Crescent is a truly special home.
