Located in the unique art deco inspired ‘Broadway’ complex and tucked away from the main entrance is this executive style two bedroom apartment. It is perfectly situated only a short walk from Manuka, Kingston and Griffith shops, the Kingston Foreshore, Lake Burley Griffin and the Parliamentary Triangle. This means it has some of Canberra's best eateries and amenities on its doorstep while being within the catchment zones of some of Canberra's best schools.
The house was designed by Cuthbert Whitley in 1939 and, as one of the first government-built functionalist houses in the country, it is regarded as an important example of Australian modernist architecture. This has earned it a listing on the Australian Institute of Architects' ACT Register of Significant Architecture.
Boasting two generous size courtyards and a fantastic floorplan that has a townhouse feel this apartment is not to be missed. The open plan living, kitchen and dining areas open out onto the sunny 29m2 courtyard that is mostly covered and therefore can be used all year round. The back courtyard is accessible from the main bedroom and is flooded with natural light making it a wonderful place to enjoy your afternoon vino. The apartment has been freshly painted and new curtains have been installed in the loungeroom for the sale.
This spacious ground floor home is perfect for downsizers, or busy professionals who are searching for the Inner South lifestyle. It is vacant and ready to move in!
