26 Truebridge Street, Wright ACT 2611

This stunning three bedroom townhouse is arranged across two levels and flows to sunny alfresco courtyard, gifting a wonderful indoor-outdoor connection. Light bounces off whisper white walls as golden timber floors glow underfoot…the whole home imbued with a Scandi simplicity, blessed by a delight of warming natural light.

Wright is one of Canberra's newest and fastest evolving suburbs, with its array of modern builds resting at the foothills of Mount Stromlo. Despite its urban feel it is very much informed by its bush setting…sweeping skies, the ever-changing moods of the ranges and the myriad of bush trails that snake their way to the summit. It is fitting that this sight is named after the poet and activist Judith Wright, who wrote so richly about the Australian landscape.

There is something soothing about the neat rows of townhouses, with their smooth rendered walls and handsome charcoal louvred insets, all set behind a swell of native gardens. Perhaps it's the symmetry or the welcoming garden paths that lead to the white front doors. No.26 sitting pretty behind a tall ornamental pear with signature Ned Kelly mailbox in sleek black.

Within you are struck by an effortless grace, the paired back palette, punctuated by black framed windows and sliders that welcome northern light and landscape. Open plan living spills to a large courtyard, drenched in warming sunlight. A sleek kitchen is housed in one corner, sharing a wonderful sociability with both dining and living spaces. Everything you need is here: natural stone benchtops, large peninsula, banks of storage and sleek modern appliances.

The living area is both intimate and open with its drift to alfresco dining. Glass sliders can be flung open welcoming breezes, drawing the outside in and expanding the spatiality. With table set for plenty, the courtyard is a wonderfully private domain, perfect for enjoying the outside, relaxing with family and friends. One of the three bedrooms is located on the ground floor.

Floating timber stairs with glass balustrades usher upward to the intimate wing, where two additional peaceful bedrooms enjoy a sequestered privacy. The welcoming master flows to ensuite and the second bedroom is amenable to a family bathroom. Both bathrooms share the same concordant elegant simplicity. Lovely elevated, big sky views, inform both bedrooms gifting a feeling of remove, despite the immediate connection to all the exciting offerings of the city.
