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 culturally significant precinct with aesthetic appeal. You will not find another 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 will be 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.
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.
It is ideal for those seeking safety, solitude and serenity in the heart of the city in a friendly, family environment. The double brick 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.
The house furniture includes a leather lounge, beds, mattresses, pillows, large new smart LED/LCD TV, kitchen utensils, pots, pans, cutlery/crockery, toaster, kettle, fridge and washing m/c, study table/desk lamp, chair and filing cabinet, bookshelf, iron/table, vacuum cleaner, private clothes line, security outdoor lighting; a gas heater in the lounge and a powerful 1KW panel heater in your own room keeps the whole house warm in winter.
