Set in a lovely complex with glorious open spaces!

Solstice is looking so pretty - green lawns, magnolias in full bloom, the ever-present bushland surrounds and a constant tranquil presence. Sunlit communal spaces, give way to meandering private roads and neat residences, sitting behind high courtyard walls. No.82 ideally placed, on a tree-lined avenue and directly across from open grassland. You can see the mountains from the adjacent park.

Step inside this lovely home with its warmth capturing you. The lovely open plan living merges seamlessly to a generous walled courtyard, extending the lived experience and providing room to dine and cook alfresco. A glorious grove of conifers gives a textural pop of green, set against burgundy garden walls. Fixed bench seating, a large storage cupboard and barbecue bench make for relaxed living and easy entertaining.

Within, bamboo floors stretch to meet crisp white walls, as large windows allow the light to pour into the lovely front living area. While the family room opens the full-length to the neatly paved courtyard garden that enjoys glorious afternoon sunshine. A bright, contemporary kitchen sits nicely up one end, with a central island bench overlooking the entire space, making it a real social hub for families and the perfect place for entertaining guests.

The upstairs landing is given over to a seamless study area, taking care of homework or working from home. The master bedroom opens to a private balcony that captures soft morning light. There is a walk-in-robe and a large ensuite, all double basins and generous glassed shower space. The two additional bedrooms feature built-in-robes and plantation shutters to filter the light. The nearby family bathroom finished in concordant elegance, with floor to ceiling tiles in crisp white and stone topped vanity.

Throw in a downstairs powder room, seamless European laundry, shady rear courtyard and internal access from the double garage and you have easy-care living, amenable to all the delights of the boutique inner north.

Solstice is a family friendly enclave with a dedicated Facebook page, to keep people connected. Neighbours happily share fresh produce, kids often run small cake stalls and there is a charming book library. Surrounded by playgrounds and parks and close to reserve, the home is also handy to the local shops. It is an easy walk to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer's Market and the home is just a short ride or drive from the Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD. The new Maliyan Park is close by and the home is convenient to a mix of private and public schools and close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
