111 Irvine Street

Opportunity knocks in the heights of Watson! This vintage three-bedroom home has been updated and extended and occupies a tranquil position on Irvine Street. The lovely scope of the home and its grounds tempting the imaginationthink a wish list for family living. It is easy to imagine a re-jigging of the plan, adding a palatial master wing, forging bigger and better connections to the garden, or making the most of the glorious position to realise the house of your dreams. The home is wonderfully liveable with the separate living room having easy access to the contemporary kitchen making day to day living a breeze. We love the open, chatty vibe and the golden timber look floors that glow in the sunshine. Comfy couches can be arranged beneath the big front window, so you can chill in the warming northern light. The extension delivers the addition of a dining space and a second living area, opening onto a large, sheltered deck, perfect for entertaining. There is a trio of peaceful bedrooms with big windows and garden views. The family bathroom is finished in crisp white and there is a relaxing bathtub and the convenience of a separate toilet. There is also an internal laundry with direct garden access and good storage within the linen cupboard. The garden wraps around the entire home only interrupted by a long driveway. Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes, fabulous local shops, plenty of playgrounds and parks and surrounded by natural reserves. The home is moments from Watson shops and primary school. Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. It is not far to Dickson shops, host to an array of international cuisines. Majura Nature Reserve is nearby, and the home is edged by interconnecting green spaces. It is not far to the dynamic Braddon precinct, ANU and the CBD. The home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra. .features .updated and extended three-bedroom home in leafy Watson .set on a brilliant 1197m2 approx. block brimming with potential .solar array .heat pump hot water system .under floor and roof insulation .ideally placed on a leafy street, a short stroll from reserve areas .red brick house with feature sandstone cladding .front veranda with decorative wrought iron railing .large windows .combo of timber look floors and carpet .flowing living, kitchen and combined dining/second living .dining area opening to the large, sheltered deck and expansive gardens .contemporary kitchen with banks of storage, stone worktops, glass splash back and modern appliances .internal laundry .linen closet .family bathroom with a bathtub and separate toilet .three generous bedrooms .two reverse cycle split systems .easy stroll to Watson Shops and the local Primary Schools .walk to the new adventure park adjacent to the shopping centre .handy to transport, including the light rail .walk to the Farmer's Market held at EPIC .close to parks, transport, the local pre-school, day care centre and Dickson College .walk to the Australian Catholic University .easy drive to Braddon, the CBD and the ANU Fine details (all approximate) EER: 1.5 Living area: 102m2 Land Size: 1197m2 Built in: 1963 Land Value: $1,032,000 (2025) Rates:$5,715 per annum Disclaimer: The information contained in this advertisement is derived from sources we deem reliable.
