This superb light-filled Willemsen townhouse, located in sought-after Macquarie Court, combines an enviable location in the heart of the parliamentary triangle with clever design, comfort and striking style.
As you enter from the street, you will see your own private courtyard where summer evenings are pleasantly enjoyed with friends. The front door opens into a streamlined kitchen which makes the most of the space available. A room in its own right, there is ample (Caesarstone) bench space for even the messiest chef. A double Blanco undersink mount and Bosch appliances encourage you to spend time here, as does the island bench.
From here you can access the single lock-up garage below, or wander up to the next of the four split levels which is the living area. A versatile space, it's yours to arrange as you like. The door from this level opens out directly to your rear patio which abuts the communal gardens: you can almost see the flag flying at Parliament House, but it's hard to believe you're in the middle of Barton.
As you continue up to the next level, you will pass through a beautifully sunlit mezzanine space which lends itself to any number of uses, such as a study or home office. This area leads into a second bedroom or, if you wish, a large dressing room with plenty of storage space. A bathroom with a proper bath completes this level.
At the top of the townhouse you can retire to your spacious main bedroom with fully renovated en suite and built-in wardrobe. This opens out onto a private balcony overlooking the mature communal gardens to the north. Perhaps enjoy your morning coffee out here, enjoying the serenity, as you think about the day ahead.
Within easy walking distance of numerous Commonwealth government departments and other office buildings in a suburb where parking is increasingly difficult to find, you will be comfortable all year round thanks to considered features such as honeycomb blinds and powerful reverse-cycle air-conditioning.
On your days off, you are perfectly positioned to stroll to Kingston, Manuka, the Kingston Foreshore, Lake Burley Griffin or maybe even the National Gallery.
