Overview

Situated in the welcoming community of The Fair in Watson, this well-presented home offers a seamless blend of character and contemporary convenience. Its Italian-villa inspired aesthetic is complemented by updated interiors that encourage easy-care living, making it a desirable residence within Canberra's Inner North.

The single-level floor plan revolves around an open-plan living and dining area, enhanced by the warmth of timber flooring and the practicality of reverse-cycle climate control, ensuring comfort throughout the seasons. The modern kitchen stands out with stainless-steel appliances, a dishwasher, and ample storage, facilitating everyday meal preparation and entertaining needs.

All three bedrooms feature built-in robes, providing generous storage while maintaining clean, uncluttered spaces. The bathroom’s separate shower and bathtub present flexibility for both quick routines and leisurely soaks, complemented by a separate toilet and dedicated laundry area to support daily practicality.

Externally, a fully enclosed courtyard with established gardens presents a private retreat ideal for relaxation or intimate entertaining, without the demands of extensive upkeep. A single lock-up garage with internal access and additional storage completes the property’s functional offering.

Beyond the home, The Fair fosters a strong sense of community with shared gardens, a hall, and a park, offering residents a rare balance of connection and privacy. Proximity to Mount Majura’s walking trails, local shops, schools, and parks enhances lifestyle convenience, while nearby dining, shopping precincts, light rail, and easy access to major roads provide excellent connectivity to Canberra City.

This property presents an attractive opportunity for first-home buyers, couples, young families, downsizers, or investors seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance lifestyle in a prime Inner North location.
