Set in a quiet, circular street in the sought-after suburb of Lyons, this retro four-bedroom, three-bathroom home with established gardens offers a rare opportunity to enter the Woden property market.

Step into warm interiors highlighted by retro wood panelled walls in the entrance. The spacious lounge and dining room is bathed in natural light from delightful bay windows, framing leafy views and the expansive, private front garden.

The central hallway leads to three original bedrooms, all with built-in robes. The master features a classic ensuite and the main bathroom includes a full-sized spa bath, perfect for winding down at the end of each day. All enjoy abundant natural light and tranquil garden outlooks. At the rear of the home, a tasteful extension provides a generous fourth bedroom and third bathroom.

But what sets this home apart is the heart of the property, which boasts an enormous recreation room with wood-framed, vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace and a bar. With unique ski-lodge vibes, it's easy to envisage how you'll stay warm and entertained during Canberra's cool winter nights. This flows out to a spacious sunroom with a peaked ceiling, creating the third living area - contrastingly perfect for entertaining on bright summer evenings.

A pergola, paved terrace and established greenery along one side of the garden form a shaded space ideal for a BBQ or hammock. This backyard is a family's oasis. Mature trees, established hedges, and a lily pond create a peaceful, private setting.

The kitchen has everything the home cook could want. An electric cooktop, and long, wide benches allow you to explore your culinary imagination unfettered. As you cook, your gaze will be drawn through the glass windows to the alfresco, lush grass and multiple entertaining spaces. Long evenings with friends and family are sure to feature heavily year round.

Houses that genuinely blend living with lifestyle are rare. Located in a safe, friendly neighbourhood, this home is perfectly positioned close to public and private schools, Lyons local shops, Westfield Woden, public transport and nature trails, offering an exceptional balance of city convenience and natural surroundings, making it a truly special home. If you value peace, privacy and a close-knit community, this is the family home you've been waiting for.
