4 Rivett Street, Hackett, ACT 2602

Family living at its best, just a short stroll to so many wonderful attractions!

A superb home that has been built to stand the test of time with its solid brick construction and terracotta tiled roof being a real standout. All the windows have been replaced with double glazing framed in white, so perfect against the blonde brick form. It's a hint of what's to come, the interiors harmoniously blending the old with the new, ushering this 60s charmer straight into the here and now.

This vintage four-bedroom ensuite family home has been transformed into a generous family abode, serving up plenty of living spaces, a gourmet kitchen and the ideal connection to alfresco living. Despite the tranquil suburban peace, the home delivers quite the urban lifestyle – moments from the buzzing Dickson precinct and not far from all the enticements of Braddon and the CBD.

Within, vinyl plank flooring stretches underfoot and high ceilings gift an airy, endless feel. The front living area is accessed via vintage slider with pretty patterned glass and delivers on light and an absolute generosity of space. Huge windows frame the garden and welcome the wonderful northern sunshine. From here there is an easy drift to a formal dining room and the open kitchen combined living area beyond.

The renovated kitchen is generously arrayed with a long island bench, large separate appliance shelf and two walk-in-pantries. Crisp whites combine with pretty tessellated tiles and timeless dark grey stone worktops. There is quality 90cm cookware from Fisher & Paykel and a dishwasher from Bosch. Think relaxed entertaining with enough space for all to enjoy, and an easy summer drift to a central covered timber deck that overlooks the flat lawn of the rear gardens.

The master delivers a built-in-robe and a modern ensuite bathroom with floor-to-ceiling tiling in crisp white, offsetting dark ceramic floors. There is great vanity storage and an enormous walk-in-rain shower shielded by frameless glass. There are three additional bedrooms two with built-in robes. The family bathroom has charming original features and has classic mosaic floors, a tiled shower room and a bathtub in nostalgic baby pink.

The location is brilliant placing you within walking distance of the local shops, the walking and riding trails of Mount Majura and a great choice of schools. You are handy to the dynamic precincts of Dickson and Braddon and amenable to the charming inner-north centres of Ainslie, O'Connor and Lyneham, extending a vibrant mix of independent cafés, shops and restaurants. The home is also close to transport and just a short drive from the CBD and ANU. Come and enjoy the friendliness of the locals and lifestyle on offer.
