Anyone who has ever lived in one of Canberra's ex-government red brick cottages knows the joys that they can bring.
This one in Barada Crescent is not only close to schools and the boutique shops of Aranda, it also offers a long, deep verandah at the front and a north-facing loungeroom.
Like many ex-govies' it is solidly built and features the quintessential pared-back rectangular floorplan.
The loungeroom flows to the meals area and kitchen where a tasteful renovation includes large-format floor tiles and stainless-steel free-standing gas stove and dishwasher.
There are also views over the enormous flat backyard with a pergola trellis and mature camellias.
You can access the rear garden through the laundry, a space where there is good storage plus room for a side-by-side washing machine and dryer combination.
At the other end of the home are three bedrooms, serviced by a central renovated main bathroom and separate renovated toilet.
With good bones, lasting build quality and simple but effective floorplans these homes remain eminently comfortable but also offer endless possibilities for future extension.
This home is no exception.
