13 Durack Street

Downer ACT 2602

Three generous bedrooms are positioned at the front of the home, each with built in robes and beautiful main bathroom that you will find in a home built for a large family. The segregated master bedroom features a walk-in robe, ensuite and access to the rear deck. The fifth bedroom is perfect for a nursery or home office.

The front and backyard has been designed by Cedric Bryant to create a low maintenance garden that requires minimal water and has texture and colour all year round. The irrigation system looks after the raised vegetable patches and mature fruit trees for you. A large grass strip and merbau deck with colorbond roof is perfect for the kids to play and you can entertain guests all year round.

13 Durack Street will remind you of days gone by and will inspire you to rediscover, recreate and share these times with a new generation.
