3-bedroom house, Edkins street

$585pw (Unfurnished)

3br + Attic house, next to Dickson shops (city area - inner north), car parking. Rare find! 

“Surround yourself with greenery & birds. ” ANU students/groups/families welcome.

Special features: One of the house’s special features is the magical attic on the mezzanine level, termed by past tenants as “haven. ” It can be used as a study, or for guest sleeps, or simply as a store. Another special feature is the lockable front gate which turns the house & garden into “Fort Knox,” assuring total privacy from the outside world.

House: A uniquely designed house, with lots of timber, trees & time - time that slows. You get a feel for the nature with wood incorporated throughout. It is painted with colours that meld with wood to spice up your living. Bamboo flooring with eye-pleasing grains in full display. There is a BIR & heater in each bedroom. Bedrooms are designed so they are independent, connected to each other & also have a direct access to the small, easily manageable garden. There are two kitchens, a full kitchen plus a kitchenette. Bathroom has combined shower, toilet and two washbasins, small and large. Within the garden, there is a long bench and a cosy fire pit to keep you warm during the winter. In addition, there are two store-rooms, BBQ facility, an outside laundry with space for washing machine/sink and clothesline. Truely a rustic and “rural” atmosphere in the midst of a bustling city area.

Location: Welcome to this special location, just a mere walk to Dickson shopping complex, or cycle to Canberra city center - yet, a quiet and serene place. Situated amongst lush greenery with a thick canopy of trees with many birds, lining one of the spectacular streets in Canberra, you will love this location. Wake up in the morning carolled by bird songs, and walk to the buzzing Dickson shopping centre for your morning breakfast, or to Gang Gang cafe in local Downer shops. Or, simply walk to the tranquil Edkins Park next door, just to relax. Catch the light rail going to the City, Gunghalin, or even cycle to major icons, such as Australian National University and ADFA. Walk to Australian Catholic University, Dickson swimming pool or the Canberra Tradies Club.

In short, it’s a house you can call “home,” on a long term basis.
