4 Moss St, Cook ACT 2614, Australia

Sometimes the simple things offer the most promise.

Having a cosy space where you can close a door, relax and let loose is a rare treat these days. In this light filled Cook home you’ll be spoilt for choice. In fact, every family member will.

Your hardest decision will be whether to spend time unwinding in your master suite, watching your favourite movie in the family room, enjoying a formal meal in the dining room or lingering with an after-dinner coffee in the lounge room.

That’s if you can resist the temptation to potter outside in the private garden, or relax on your elevated deck with its vaulted ceiling and clear patio blinds which give it all-weather appeal.

If you must go out, you are only seconds from the natural attractions of the Bicentennial Trail and Mt Painter with its panoramic views of Canberra. A leisurely stroll will take you to the wonderful Cook Shops with the popular Cook Grocer, Little Oink Caf, and To All My Friends pizza bar.

The locals will proudly tell you that apart from these little gems, the suburb’s best kept secret is how easy it is to get everywhere. You’re close to Jamison Plaza, Westfield Belconnen, the Australian Institute of Sport, Calvary Hospital, schools and universities. Within a few minutes you can even be in the city.

One family has spent 50 years enjoying their comfortable patch’s proximity to all of this and more. Now it’s just waiting to become your patch.
