Surrounded by mature trees, situated on the high side of the street and enjoying winter views to Mt Ainslie, a convenient walk to Lake Burley Griffin, Russell offices or our City Center, this home will offer you something a little different along with elegant appeal and practical economic living.

The current owners have gone to great lengths to not only maintain, but improve on the homes’ wonderful character and ambience of the 1960′s. The light filled formal living/dining has polished timber floors, gorgeous window treatments and French doors out to the north facing deck. The very modern kitchen respects the character of the home while offering all modern conveniences.

The main bedroom suite with full dressing room and gorgeous ensuite will delight you, the enormous art/rumpus room to the rear of the home offers so many options for flexible living or the ability to work from home, the snug has been a favorite cosy spot to just chill out and watch TV or read a book. No matter how your family wants to use the spaces in this home, there is something for everyone, indoors and out.

The greatest improvements are mostly unseen but very much felt; solar hot water, solar PV panels, insulation to walls, floor, and ceiling, hydronic heating and double glazing to all new windows.

The gardens and courtyards are just lovely with various nooks and spots to enjoy relaxing and entertaining no matter the season. Reap the best of a great veggie garden and range of fruit trees, enjoy summer BBQ’s in the cool of the southern courtyard and winter brunches on the northern deck.

This is truly a beautiful home with a great deal of flexibility in a quiet spot with easy access to all that matters on the City fringe.
