A rare opportunity to secure one of Canberra's premium addresses, offered for the first time since being built in 1952. Set on a substantial parcel of approximately 2017m2, this unique and adaptable double brick home affords a lifestyle of comfort and convenience, just moments from Manuka.
North facing to the rear, the generous floor plan is spread across two levels. From the entry a formal lounge with bay window and open fireplace overlooks the front garden, privately concealed by the original boundary hedges. Separate dining, study and entertaining rooms offer versatile living spaces and an updated kitchen with meals area is bathed in sunlight. Four full size bedrooms upstairs capture their own unique vantage points, including views to Red Hill Nature Reserve. The under house garage includes generous storage space. In excellent condition throughout, the option to renovate and extend can be considered now or be delayed well in to the future.
A genuine and pleasant walk to the Inner South's key locations and schools, the quality of this offering is reflected in the pedigree of the neighbourhood. A superb opportunity.
