Set on approx. 890sqm of premium Griffith land, privately positioned behind a lush Photinia hedge and wrought iron gates, sits the charming 1937 façade of 29 La Perouse Street.
This classic double-brick cottage in the coveted Blanfordia Precinct offers an enviable Inner South lifestyle - a gentle stroll beneath the leafy canopy of Grant Crescent to the vibrant Manuka Village, or up the street to Canberra Grammar, St Bede's and Red Hill Primary Schools. Homes combining such period character, modern comforts, and future potential in this sought-after location are a rare find.
Original battened ceilings, an ornate fireplace with inbuilt gas fire, charming picture rails and timber sash windows celebrate the home’s period character while framing views around the surrounding gardens. Cedar bi-fold doors open the living spaces to an elevated rear deck, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. Surrounded by mature trees, the private, partially covered entertaining area provides opportunities to relax or entertain year-round.
Inside, the home offers an inviting balance of function and charm. A renovated kitchen, well-maintained bathroom, open, airy living and dining spaces centred around the ornate fireplace provide comfortable everyday living. Three bedrooms offer flexibility, with the most generous opening onto a covered porch framed by established wisteria.
The beautifully established gardens are a defining feature of the property. Mature trees, seasonal plantings and meandering brick pathways create a tranquil setting, with flowering wisteria adding to the home’s timeless appeal.
29 La Perouse Street presents a wonderful opportunity for a new owner to enjoy the home as it is today, while making it their own over time. A much-loved home, ready for its next chapter.
