Price Guide: $1,275,000 - $1,475,000
Someday you'll step outside beneath the canopy of one of Canberra's oldest tree-lined streets and realise just how close everything is.
Morning walks through Reid's historic streets. Coffee in Campbell or the City. Weekends around Lake Burley Griffin. The kids growing up surrounded by parks, excellent schools and some of Canberra's most recognisable landmarks.
And at the end of the day, you'll come home to a quiet, leafy street that somehow feels a world away from the city sitting just moments beyond it.
Positioned on a 697m² block in one of Canberra's most tightly held and historically significant suburbs, this beautifully renovated character home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy everything that makes Reid so special today, with extraordinary potential for the future.
The existing two-bedroom residence has all the character you'd hope to find here. Solid timber flooring, timber sash windows, established gardens and the warmth of an original Canberra home combine with thoughtful modern updates to create a property that feels immediately comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom have been beautifully renovated, the timber floors restored and the interiors refreshed, while reverse-cycle heating and cooling ensures year-round comfort.
Upstairs, two light-filled bedrooms overlook the generous rear garden, while downstairs the living spaces retain the intimacy and charm of the original home. Outside, mature gardens frame an extraordinary parcel of land that feels increasingly rare this close to the centre of Canberra.
And it's the land that makes this opportunity particularly exciting.
The property itself is not heritage listed, giving the next owner the freedom to think bigger. Move in and enjoy the home exactly as it is. Extend as the family grows. Explore redevelopment opportunities or, subject to relevant approvals, create an entirely new residence amongst the established streets of Reid.
For young families, it's the chance to secure the location and the land now, knowing the home can evolve alongside you.
For investors and developers, it represents a substantial landholding in a blue-chip suburb where opportunities are inherently limited.
All of this sits within remarkable reach of the Canberra Centre, Campbell, Anzac Parade, the Australian War Memorial, Glebe Park, Lake Burley Griffin, the Parliamentary Triangle and some of Canberra's most highly regarded schools.
Historic streets. Established trees. An incredible parcel of land.
Right in the centre of it all.
