This inner city 1950s home sits snugly behind a brick wall and is surrounded by mature gardens. The block is zoned RZ3 (medium density) and is approximately 634m2. Here you will be surrounded by homes and be able to enjoy the proximity to the ANU, transport, local shopping centres and Lake Burley Griffin.
Inside youll find some very special original features including; 9ft high ceilings, timber windows and polished timber flooring. The piece de resistance are the two beautiful working fireplaces and their crafted mirrored timber surrounds, reflective of the era in which it was built. Modern amenities include ducted gas heating, slow combustion heating, ceiling fans and a Rinnai infinity gas hot water system.
Spacious dining and living rooms sit towards the front of the house and are flanked by large windows allowing generous amounts of sunlight into these bright spaces. Light paint finishes to ceiling and walls also enhance the comfortable feeling inside this home.
The kitchen is enormous! Original features are complemented by modern appliances such as the new Fisher and Paykel 2-drawer dishwasher and the huge freestanding Ariston gas stove and oven which sit inside the original cooking nook. This will be an amazing place to cook up some culinary delights whilst talking to guests through the server y window leading to the dining room.
There is a large main bedroom, with a built in robe and 3 more bedrooms with ceiling fans and heating. These bedrooms are currently carpeted but there are floorboards waiting to be exposed.
The bathroom is largely original with a shower recess, separate bath and basin. A separate WC sits outside the bathroom.
Outside is a solid single car garage, covered outdoor entertaining and garden bed areas. If you want the convenience of inner city and a house with character this one has potential.
