A dream home in the making in arguably one of the best locations in Canberra. Zoned for potential development with RZ2 possibility, subject to approval or put your own stamp on a truly rare address, make this a beautiful home and reap the rewards well into the future.
This charming home had many highlights in its heyday and the two storey double-brick home just a stone's throw from Manuka village was the venue for glamorous soirees. Glimpses of that memorable bygone era remain in the home's parquetry floors, original wood fireplace, formal dining room, salon, and palm-fringed swimming pool and terrace.
The downstairs layout includes a bedroom off the front entry that is serviced by a full bathroom and a small TV room off the dining and kitchen area. Upstairs, three bedrooms have access to a main bathroom while the oversized master bedroom has an original ensuite and shares a private patio. This patio is also shared by a study near the master bedroom.
The true asset here is the absolute prime location. Minutes from the Parliamentary Triangle, Manuka Oval, the Kingston Foreshore, fabulous cafes and restaurants and noted Canberra institutions. It presents a coveted lifestyle opportunity that few other locations can match.
