#soldbyholly $368,000

Tranquil, paired back and wonderfully light, this gorgeous apartment extends a welcoming hygge vibe and spills to a deep, private balcony. Touches of soft green, blue, shale grey, nod to the stunning natural surrounds, as earthy ceramic flooring and cosy carpets stretch to meet white washed walls. Throw in tree top views, a calming simplicity and a decidedly modern aesthetic, and you have the perfect inner-city hideaway.

This one-bedder sits across from Fern Hill Park and is just moments from the AIS, the UC and Calvary Hospital. It is also handy to the new mixed development and IGA on the looping Thynne Street and an easy stroll to Caf? Mo Mo and Qure restaurant. This wonderful central locale, places you a heartbeat from the Belconnen Precinct and all the delights of the inner-north and the CBD.

There is a tangible sense of peace within the grounds of the 'Hub', the modern build rising from beautifully landscaped gardens that foster outdoor relaxation and communion. It is fitting that the tagline for this handsome development is simply ? "You're Home." And how wonderful to live, surrounded by epic natural beauty, with Lake Ginninderra and Gossman Nature Reserve just moments away.

The social arena is arranged in an open plan, spilling to alfresco living?the balcony a favourite spot for natural immersion among the treetops. There is a sense of ease at work here, a lovely Hygge conviviality, the kitchen gleaming white in one corner, the whole space warmly conversational. We love the Eucalypt green feature wall and the generosity of space, easily housing comfy lounges and a table set for plenty. Think cooking up a storm for family and friends or perhaps bowls in laps on the couch, enjoying take-away linguine from the nearby Qure restaurant.

The welcoming bedroom is all sky blue serenity, with a wall of robes to accommodate everything, so you can keep things Zen. Next door, the bathroom introduces a note of soothing grey, earthed by the clay hues of ceramic floor tiles. There is a large vanity for extra storage and a handsome recessed basin. A large shower keeps the morning ritual deliciously meditative.

Throw in a tonne of extra storage in the hallway, including a generous European laundry with dryer, plus a secure carpark with storage cage, and you have easy-care living at its best. The peaceful Scandinavian simplicity belying the ideal locale, in the heart of Bruce, moments from Belconnen and on the edge of the dynamic inner north.
