Last Listing description (December 2015)
Set positioned on a 759m (approx.) block in a magical garden of tall Gum trees, shrubbery, wattle bush, flowering bulbs, bottle-brush, and ornamental blossoms, with a lemon and flowering apricot in the lawned and paved back yard, this wonderful, RZ3 zoned, Canberra red brick, is your new and exciting offering to the market.
In one of North Canberra's most popular suburbs and offering a whisper quiet position, in a cul-de-sac, you are invited to experience and enjoy the generous floor plan with approximately 179m (approx.) of gross living.
With a second living room extension, (the expansive sunroom, beautifully light-filled and warmed, bathed in floor to ceiling glass windows), and front garden entertainment terrace from 1980, and a studio extension from 1985, (the fourth bedroom with additional vanity, plumbed for hot and cold water - with opportunity as a bedsit), including a storeroom/dressing room, an entrance decked patio, and additional rear entertaining decked terrace, also a renovated, contemporary kitchen/laundry from 2013, and bathroom and powder room from 2014, 4 Fox Place is your quintessential must have family home, just bursting with features.
You'll be the envy of your friends and family, in this location - across from the Lyneham wetlands, a short walk to the thriving hub of the Lyneham shops and restaurants, close to Lyneham Primary and High schools and Daramalan College, with Dickson shops and restaurants nearby, sporting and recreational facilities and transport options available, and ANU is a short cycle away.
