Overview

Inner city Ground Floor Living

Positioned on the ground floor of the tightly held Forum development, this distinctive loft-style residence delivers a different take on inner-city living - spacious, private and cleverly spread across two levels, yet moments from the heart of Canberra. Step inside and the difference is immediate. Soaring ceilings and tall glazing create an impressive sense of volume through the living zone, while the ground floor brings together an open-plan lounge, dining area and well-appointed kitchen before flowing to a private screened porch. A separate powder room on this level is an invaluable addition when entertaining. Upstairs, the loft-style bedroom becomes a retreat of its own. Generously proportioned at approximately 5.2m x 3.5m on the supplied floorplan, it offers room well beyond what is typically expected of a one-bedroom apartment, complete with built-in storage and its own bathroom and laundry facilities. And then there is the location. Forum occupies an enviable position on the quieter edge of the City - close enough to walk into Canberra's retail, dining and employment precinct, yet positioned towards Commonwealth Park and Lake Burley Griffin, creating an appealing separation from the busiest parts of Civic. Recent building marketing places Canberra Centre approximately 500m away, while pedestrian connections provide easy access towards Commonwealth Park and the lake. The Home - Distinctive one-bedroom, one-bathroom loft-style apartment arranged across two levels - Ground-floor position within the established Forum development - Impressive open-plan living zone with soaring ceiling height and tall glazing - Separate dining area adjoining the kitchen - Well-appointed updated kitchen with stone benchtops, extensive cabinetry, dishwasher and electric cooking - Private screened porch providing an additional outdoor sitting space and convenient ground-level connection - Highly practical guest powder room downstairs - a standout feature for a one-bedroom residence - Oversized upper-level bedroom - Built-in wardrobe to bedroom - Upstairs bathroom with generous walk-in shower - Integrated European-style laundry adjoining the bathroom - Reverse-cycle air conditioning - Exclusive access to rooftop terrace with skyline views - Gym access included - Secure basement car accommodation for one vehicle - Lockable storage cage - Secure/intercom building access - Excellent separation between the entertaining and sleeping zones The Lifestyle - Positioned on the park and lake side of Civic, allowing you to enjoy the convenience of an inner-city address while remaining removed from some of the denser retail and nightlife areas. Cross towards Commonwealth Park and Lake Burley Griffin for walking, running, cycling and some of Canberra's best open spaces. - Approximately 500-700m from Canberra Centre according to recent property marketing and the supplied aerial photography, putting shopping, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and the broader Civic employment precinct within an easy walk. On The House - An exceptionally connected position for professionals, students and investors, with ANU, Canberra Theatre Centre, government employment hubs, public transport and the broader City precinct all within easy reach. *** - Secure parking at home plus additional street and public parking options nearby - a particularly useful combination for an inner-city residence Living Size: 73m2 (approx.)
