This second-floor (top floor) apartment, in the Argyle Square complex, is situated in one of the best locations to enjoy what city living has to offer.
It is only a short stroll to the Canberra Centre, the city precinct and popular Lonsdale Street cafes and restaurants. This apartment is surrounded by established, well cared for gardens and features the 'Federation Green' ornamental iron lacework that Argyle Square is renowned for. When walking or cycling through the streets of Reid, you can marvel at the diverse architecture that this highly regarded suburb has to showcase.
With a temperature regulating double brick construction, this home offers a combined lounge and dining room. Ample storage cupboards partially divide this area from the kitchen while still retaining an open vista of the living area.
Access the north-facing balcony with views to Mt Ainslie from the lounge room and imagine yourself enjoying pre-dinner drinks with friends or a relaxed breakfast on the weekend.
With its practical layout, the kitchen offers a dishwasher, gas cooker and ample bench space for meal preparation.
Both bedrooms have mirrored built in robes. The larger room provides access onto a sheltered, rear balcony which extends the full width of the apartment.
The bathroom has a toilet, separate shower, bath, vanity, and electric bar heater. Not often found in apartments, this one boasts a separate laundry room with a storage cupboard and wash tub. There is a deep linen press in the hall.
Car accommodation is provided by a single brick garage with remote controlled door.
It is only a short stroll of less than a kilometre to Civic and if you work in the city, you will not have to worry about parking. You could leave the car in the garage and enjoy being able to come home for lunch.
Reid is one of the oldest suburbs in Canberra. It is named after George Reid, the fourth Prime Minister of Australia. The streets in Reid are named after Aboriginal words.
