Last Listing description (September 2017)

Welcome to one of the best located townhouses you are ever likely to come across. I dont know anywhere else in Canberra that offers so much entertainment and culture no more than a walk away, and yet so much tranquillity at home.

Spread over multiple levels, this classic Willemsen townhouse offers terrific separation and seclusion, allowing a family to comfortably occupy their own private spaces. The open design is also key to the homes incredible natural climate control. Air flows through the whole interior, keeping your home fresh and light, and spreading warm and cool air to where its needed. This is the type of technology that doesnt date or require repair, and after living here for 17 years, the current owner can attest to its efficiency and effectiveness.

This is a quiet complex, with established and well-maintained gardens at its centre, and many long-term owner occupiers making up its residents. The houses across the road are also heritage listed, so you know you wont be built out in the future. The location is second to none, with so many great destinations just a short walk away, including:

- National Gallery
- Questacon
- National Library
- National Portrait Gallery
- Parliament House
- National Press Club
- Kingston Foreshore
- Manuka and Old Kingston
- Old Bus Depot Markets
- Realm Precinct
- Bowen park
- Telopea park

Theres also a wide-range of Federal Government agencies within walking distance, meaning that you may be able to simply leave the car at home, or if you are looking to invest, own a property that will remain attractive and valuable to a key demographic in Canberra.

The home is also close to some of Canberraa best restaurants and bars as well as a number of popular schools, including:

- Telopea Primary & High Schools (French bi-lingual program)
- Forrest Primary
- St. Claires (Catholic girls, secondary)
- St. Edmonds. (Catholic boys, years 4-12)
