Description
"2br HOUSE with garden in the city, NOT a flat! "
$595pw
(ANU students/Groups welcome)
Are you tired of living in a noisy block of flats with no privacy, no garden, no veggie patch? Do you enjoy “walk-cycle-to-everything-lifestyle” that city/CBD offers, or that exhilarating early morning walk/jog along the beautiful lake? Do you want to live next to an attractive park, in one of the prestige suburbs in Canberra?
Welcome to this independently located duplex house, almost new - built just a few years ago & you will be the second resident!
It has a double-sided, lockable, front gate, with a 2. 1 meter high fence, giving the feel of a “fort-knox” where you can be the king/queen of your own Castle! You can lock the fence-gate while you are inside, and when you go to work you can also lock it from outside, and be secure in the knowledge that your house and contents are safe. This is an important feature that you will not find in most houses.
It is located just a few meters from a park in a peaceful, whisper-quiet area, providing additional privacy & peace from the road, while the park will remind you of the four changing seasons of Canberra.
The front of the houses has a porch/verandah where you can sit and relax during those hot summer months. As you enter the L-shaped house, you are greeted by a sliding door to the lounge and new carpet. The kitchen is located next to the lounge with timber vinyl to the floor. A reverse air-conditioner heats and cools the house; you will never feel the cold in winter nor the heat in summer.
Each bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and a powerful Noirot-heater. Quality carpets will also keep the winter at bay. In addition, thermal double-lined curtains to all the windows will keep the heat inside and reduce your winter bills. The LED downlights throughout the house give you the modern feel in addition to saving electricity costs.
The bathroom has adequate space for your washing machine, and all the associated plumbing connections have been taken care of. There is a water tank at the back which will reduce your water usage bill. Thick pink batts are in the ceiling & walls for warmth. During construction, all care has been taken so that your utility bills will be as minimum as possible.
As it is a new house, you can design and build up the garden to your own taste. Plant vegetables of your choice, flowers that you like, or the bushes that emanate fragrance. Make this your home on a long-term basis and start enjoying your life.
You will not find another “securely-gated” house closer to the city, in a prestige suburb with a nearby park & lake like this one. It is a unfurnished, located just 5mins walk to Canberra central bus stand, with buses going to all locations every five minutes, (i. E no need for a car); 5 mins walk to Canberra business district, city centre with an array of cafes, cinemas, theatres, shops, restaurants and museums, walk to ADFA, ASIO, Australian National University, & CSIRO.
In short, it is your home away from home!
