Last Listing description (April 2019)
This house gives an extraordinary opportunity to buy a beautiful Tocumwal home in a super cool suburb, with contemporary living in a prime inner north Canberra location.
The house is a delight to live in. It also provides multiple accommodation options that could be an attractive proposition for first homebuyers; singles with friends and family; families seeking intergenerational housing options; millennials still living at home; downsizers; possible live-in carer or au pair; or an astute investor looking to maximise return.
With close proximity to Canberra City and the ANU, you can walk or ride to the local O'Connor shops, the exciting Braddon precinct, Lyneham shops or the bush paths of the nearby Black Mountain nature reserve.
70 Miller street is a character filled home displaying classic period details of a Tocumwal. These gorgeous weatherboard cottages have become a heritage treasure and defining feature of some of Canberra's earliest streets. This home is a prime example, retaining some of the most charming characteristics: picture rails, casement windows, timber doors, and gorgeous cypress pine floors.
The main house boasts two generous sized bedrooms both with inbuilt cupboards and shelving, renovated bathroom, sunroom, formal lounge room with fireplace, and open plan kitchen spilling out to a generously sized covered deck and a beautiful, shady garden.
Separate and private, an architect-designed one bedroom north-facing unit, complete with its own bathroom and laundry, offers a spacious guest accommodation, a brilliant housing option for family members to be independent but close, or a perfect rental opportunity to subsidise income. The main house and unit can be separately tenanted.
Stroll through the garden to find a multipurpose studio featuring additional bathroom and laundry.
