Note: This is a quality independent House, NOT an apartment in a block of flats or townhouses!

Are you tired of living in a noisy, concrete, block of flats/townhouses with no privacy, no garden, no veggie patch, and no greenery around you ? Do you want to live in one of the most sought after, but rarely found streets in Canberra ? Do you enjoy “walk-to-everything-lifestyle” but find city rents too high for poor quality houses ?

Welcome to this street/landscape which has been recognised as being “historically and culturally significant precinct with aesthetic appeal”.

You will not find another 3 br, fully furnished house closer to the city, in a park-like-setting like this one in a peaceful, whisper-quiet area, opposite a beautiful heritage park. As you walk towards the house, you are greeted on both sides by flowers/garden beds. The birdbath in the garden attracts innumerable birds. The house has a privately-maintained garden/lawn, i. E, no gardening required, but still you have access to organic veges grown in the garden! The views from the bedroom window to the garden will remind you of the four changing seasons of Canberra.

It is located just 10 mins walk to Australian National University, Canberra Central Bus Stand with buses going to all locations every five minutes, (i. E no need for a car); 3 mins walk to Canberra Business District, Canberra Center/City Centre with an array of cafes, cinemas, theatres, shops, restaurants and museums, ADFA, Russell, and CSIRO.

The household has three graduate residents providing an intellectually stimulating environment where long-lasting friendships can be made. Previous residents of the house continue to nurture their friendships and memories set amongst historic location and pleasant surrounds. It is ideal for those seeking safety, solitude and serenity in the heart of the city in a friendly, family environment and want to enrich their cultural experiences.

This heritage house is warm in winter and cool in summer, one of the first houses to be built in Canberra with quality fittings. The bedroom has built- in wardrobes with storage space on top with polished timber floors; There is a storage shed at the back for additional storage.
