This superb home offers the grandeur that discerning buyers crave but which is seldom available in the current Canberra housing market.
Classy, elegant and more than just a little bit special, this six-bedroom, three-bathroom home in a premier, leafy street a short stroll from Canberra's CBD will place its new owners within the territory's most historic precinct in the most outstanding central location.
Beautiful formal gardens paved with original Canberra red bricks welcome you to this spacious character home where every room has a garden view, and rooms upstairs glimpse the sparkling night lights of the city.
Entertainers are spoilt for choice. In the lush rear gardens there's a beautiful conservatory, a gazebo, plus a large covered deck and paved alfresco area adjoining an insulated separate building that could become a summer house, a glorious studio or home office with delightful garden views.
Inside, an updated stylish kitchen features a bay window with garden outlook, a meals area and extensive storage. There's a formal dining room with triple aspect on this level, as well as a formal lounge with refined fireplace with black granite-surround.
On the other side of the entry hall is a double-size bedroom that runs the depth of the house and currently used as a master bedroom. It's fitted out with a huge custom walk-in wardrobe adjacent to an updated and bright family bathroom with dedicated make-up station.
Upstairs off the gallery landing is the primary master bedroom with its own ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and access to the front balcony. A sunlit bathroom and additional four bedrooms are also on this level, three of which have balcony access.
Buy a lifestyle with convenience and enjoy an unbeatable location that not only puts you within 2km of the city, ANU, Campbell High School, Merici College, Ainslie Primary and the Russell Offices, but also provides an elegant character home with sophistication and magnificent gardens unlike any other.
