Overview

Refined and functional lifestyle in Canberra's premier setting

Inspection: by appointment Contact Mario Sanfrancesco: 0412 488 027 Positioned in one of Canberra's most prestigious neighbourhoods, this residence offers modern luxury and thoughtful design. Steps away from Manuka's vibrant shopping village, the architectural townhouse delivers sophistication with good proportions and quality finishes that are both impressive and inviting. Providing an easy lock up and leave lifestyle the home offers wonderful feel with entertaining options. Open-plan living and dining plus soaring double-height ceilings allows light to flood through all the living space.

With some of Canberra's most reputable schools, Manuka Village and Parliament House just a 10-minute walk in either direction, and short drives that will bring you to Kingston Foreshore, iconic institutions and popular Canberra attractions or the Canberra CBD within minutes, the location is as desirable as the home itself.
