1940’s charm on a sensational block of approximately 1,222m2 overlooking Hackett Gardens park, close to ANU and City centre!
Discover one of the most exceptional locations, brimming with potential, close to the City centre.
Enjoying a scenic outlook over beautiful Hackett Gardens park and playground, this extraordinary block of 1,222 m2 in a leafy street, only metres from the ANU, CSIRO and a short walk into the City centre, is presently occupied by an historic, semi-detached, double brick home, constructed during the war years.
The character of a home that has stood for around 80 years is palpable and the home is presented in an authentic unspoilt condition, incorporating all the original internal doors and more.
The front door opens to a lounge featuring high ceilings, with an open fireplace the focal point. This is currently closed in at the top, and an electric wall heater replaces its function. Charcoal carpet adds to cosiness.
Full of light and overlooking the garden, the eat-in kitchen was updated in recent years and has been freshly decorated in neutral white. It offers an as-new upright electric stove, good bench space and a pantry.
High battened ceilings feature in the three spacious bedrooms, full of timeless ambience.
The bathroom is in neat condition and includes a bath, with a separate w/c situated off the laundry. Solar hot water is a welcome concession to modern comfort, with the tank installed on ground level.
The vast, rambling rear garden has a northerly aspect and it is this enormous level block which is sure to suggest endless possibilities.
So whether your preference is restoration and extension, or whether this is the ultimate canvas that has finally presented itself, this unique opportunity promises to ignite your imagination!
