Excellent opportunity to purchase a three bedroom home in a high capital growth area. Large block of 1426.7m2 in a secure neighbourhood close to quality schools. The home which has been in one family for generations is now offered for sale for the first time in over 60 years.

Originally built in 1949 the home comprises nearly all of its original features with later additions to the home creating extra living areas, space and warmth. The tasteful extensions seamlessly blend in with the original home.

The home is set on a large block of 1,426 m2 in a quiet street in the heart of Forrest. Outstanding opportunities to renovate, rebuild or live in as is, and enjoy the country style atmosphere in the middle of Canberra’s most exclusive location.

Designed by renowned architect Kenneth Oliphant the double brick home showcases high ceilings with three bedrooms, lounge with feature fireplace, separate formal dining, sun room, original hardwood flooring and kitchen with functional fuel stove.

The pride and joy of the current owner is a private light filled upstairs studio/library featuring skylights, double glazing throughout, fully functional Norwegian Stove and an adjacent cupboard which provides an abundance of storage. This extension could serve as an ideal home office or second living area.

Feel yourself going back to nature as you step out into the large back garden, terrific for gardening fanatics, with entertaining areas, vegetable garden, chook run, a variety of fruit trees and a Cambodian picnic platform all presiding under majestic Liquid Amber Trees.
