2 Richmond Street Macquarie, ACT 2614

Anyone seeking an easy-care lifestyle will appreciate the many advantages this single-level duplex offers.

Located on a corner block opposite parklands within strolling distance of the Macquarie shops and Belconnen Fresh Food Markets, its airy open-plan living area has a quadruple aspect and opens to the outdoors on two sides.

A north-facing terrace overlooking the parklands provides an elevated, sunny outlook and is the ideal size for alfresco entertaining under a wisteria entwined pergola while a slider opposite offers access to a private atrium-style courtyard where a quiet yoga session would start the day off right.

Follow this up with breakfast at the three-seat island in the modern kitchen or the neighbouring meals zone and enjoy the energising morning light that washes into the space.

A tranquil night's rest is assured with a separate wing housing three bedrooms, two of which are served by a neat bathroom. The principal bedroom benefits from direct access to the central atrium and also has an exceptionally large ensuite that includes a bath and a walk-in shower.

This home's exceptional location will put you in easy reach of Belconnen's services, medical, retail, dining and office precincts, while excellent transport links can have you in the city in less than 15 minutes.
