7 Wrest Street, Lyons, ACT 2606 Wrest & Relax: A Charming Family Haven in Leafy Lyons

Tucked away in leafy Lyons, 7 Wrest Street is a home designed for family, connection, and effortless living. With Woden just a short stroll away and some of Canberra's best schools within easy reach, this is a place where families can put down roots and thrive.

Step through the seasonal front garden, where dappled light filters through established trees. Inside, the home is bathed in natural light, with large windows framing garden views from nearly every angle. The front living room is the perfect spot to curl up with a book or enjoy a morning coffee while watching the neighbourhood ease into the day.

The open-plan kitchen and dining area is thoughtfully designed with European appliances, generous bench space, ample storage, and a clever servery window with a retractable screen that makes outdoor entertaining a breeze. Just beyond, a second living area provides flexibility, as a media room, a home office, or even a fourth bedroom. Through ceder frame doors, the home spills effortlessly onto the expansive deck, where a manicured vine weaves a natural canopy overhead. The backyard is a private retreat, with two separate lawn areas, a paved firepit zone, and an in-ground vegetable garden waiting for your green thumb. A recently remodelled multipurpose room below the house offers endless possibilities, from a workshop to a creative studio, while the vast under-house storage means you'll never run out of space.

The master bedroom is a true retreat, positioned to capture garden views and featuring a stylish ensuite and generous wardrobe space. Two additional bedrooms, both with built-in wardrobes, are separated by the neat main bathroom with a bathtub. The home's layout balances connection and separation, making it ideal for families at any stage.

Location-wise, it doesn't get much better than this. Zoned for Curtin Primary, Hughes Primary, Alfred Deakin High School, and Canberra College, and within walking distance to Lyons Early Childhood School, this home is in a prime educational catchment. Marist College is an easy cycle away. For weekend coffee runs, Lyons Shops is just a short stroll, home to Stand By Me, a local favourite, as well as a newly built playground and Friendly Grocer. Chifley Shops offers another excellent caf?, A Bite to Eat, and the gourmet Chifley Grocer with some of the best takeaway coffee in town.

Commuting is effortless, with Woden CBD and CIT just a ten-minute walk away, and the nearest bus stop a minute from your doorstep. Canberra Hospital is a five-minute drive, while Civic and the Parliamentary Triangle can be reached in twelve minutes without the hassle of traffic lights or congestion. An extensive network of dedicated cycle paths, makes getting anywhere easy.

Beyond the practicalities, what truly sets this home apart is the neighbourhood itself. Friendly, quiet, and safe, this is a pocket of Canberra where kids still ride their bikes to the local playground, where neighbours stop for a chat, and where the bushland at the end of the street provides a natural escape. 7 Wrest Street isn't just a place to live - it's a place to call home.
