O'Connor, Canberra

This home really suits someone who likes the out of doors and a peaceful friendly living environment. We are only a few houses away from O'Connor ridge and walking/riding tracks that extend through to Black Mountain and the Aranda Bushland.

The house has a light-filled living/dining room with views over the treetops to the mountains. There are front and rear balconies positioned to take advantage of the views each with outdoor dining (or just relaxing) options.

The house is fully furnished. Housemates are welcome to make use of the many books and board games. The available bedroom has a queen bed, a built-in wardrobe and desk. All kitchen equipment is provided along with doonas and blankets on request.

The house was given an EER of 1 when it was purchased in 2006. Since then, insulation has been added to the ceiling and walls; most downstairs windows have been double-glazed and most windows have honeycomb blinds or lined curtains. The property complies with the minimum ceiling insulation standard.

The garden is large, organic, and aspires to be a food forest. It contains many fruit trees, support plants, herbs and a large vegetable area.

We are a 10 minute walk to the Lyneham shops, and a 6 min walk to buses into the city or ANU. To drive to the city takes 5-10 minutes and we are an easy bike ride to the ANU, City, the AIS and the University of Canberra. We have undercover shelter for bikes.
