When it comes to Canberra property you can't surpass Forrest. The leafy, central suburb maintains the garden block ethos of Canberra's past, whilst featuring some of most impressive modern homes.
The current house is 58 years young but has been extended over time. There are now a multitude of options available to take advantage of the solid brick construction and bring the floorplan into the 21st century.
As a potential knockdown rebuild, the 1477m2 (approx) landholding with long street frontage, dual driveway access and gently sloping fall of the block will accommodate the grandest of ambitions.
The potential for captivating views towards parliament house and the proximity to arguably Canberra's best lifestyle precincts in Manuka, Kingston and beyond, mean it would be all but impossible to overcapitalise in this location. Factor in the incredible public and private local schools and your family will be proud to call 17 Talbot Street home for generations to come.
PLEASE NOTE THIS PROPERTY WILL GO TO AUCTION WEDNESDAY, 24TH NOVEMBER - ONLINE AT 5:15PM
