This slice of Canberra history in a landmark location is a rare combination of striking 1930s style and contemporary comfort.
The property is one of two Art Deco houses that anchor the boutique Broadway development. It offers the warmth and privacy of a standalone period residence while providing the convenience of apartment living, including maintained gardens and underground, remote entry parking.
The house was designed by Cuthbert Whitley in 1939 and, as one of the first government-built functionalist houses in the country, it is regarded as an important example of Australian modernist architecture. This has earned it a listing on the Australian Institute of Architects' ACT Register of Significant Architecture.
The property looks out on to hedged gardens, a stunning magnolia and two separate ovals. With a prime position on the corner of Canberra Avenue and Cunningham Street, it is perfectly situated only a short walk from Manuka, Kingston and Griffith shops, the Kingston Foreshore, Lake Burley Griffin and the Parliamentary Triangle.This means it has some of Canberra's best eateries and amenities on its doorstep while being within the catchment zones of some of Canberra's best schools.
