This ‘mid-century modern’ architect-designed 3-bedroom home is on offer for the first time in over 50 years and provides an ideal opportunity to further develop or refurbish.

Located in one of Canberra’s most desirable Spanish Oak lined streets, this classic and extensive 1950s double brick home spans 3 gracious levels of living. Imaginative use of glass and a northerly aspect creates light-filled interiors exuding sophistication and a sense of style and space.

The lower level comprises the master bedroom featuring a wall of built-in wardrobes and bookshelves with great views to the gardens. A second bedroom is located on this level, together with the main bathroom, which boasts under floor heating.

Second level accommodation includes an elegant main living and dining area with mid-century style glass wall, wooden panelling, and a slate-covered functioning wood fireplace. A superb kitchen with gas cook-top and meals area adjoins the main living area; and a laundry completes this level.

The extensively wood-panelled upper level was added to the original home in 1968 and presents a versatile living area including the third bedroom, a large rumpus room with sliding doors to the gardens, bathroom and large walk-in wardrobe or storage room.

A secluded terrace with wonderful tree views leads off from the main living areas and onto well-established gardens easily maintained by the in-ground watering system. Year-round comfort is provided by ducted gas heating and reverse-cycle air conditioner. An automatic single garage with internal access also leads to under-house storage.

Don’t miss your opportunity to inspect this lovely family home in a fantastic location close to Manuka, Catholic schools, and Canberra Boys’ Grammar School.
