Privacy and individuality, natural light, minimal maintenance private courtyards and communal open space, all synonymous with the unique design principles of the Swinger Hill development, are stunningly revealed in this iconic design townhouse.
From the carport, walk through the gate and up the steps to the front door passing the front courtyard with water feature on the left and the fabulous covered entertaining deck on the right.
Enter the home and see that the open plan lounge, dining and kitchen areas are spacious and light filled. The lounge area especially enjoys the north facing view across the Woden Valley as the townhouse is located at the top of Hallen Close.
Enjoy entertaining family and friends on the front covered deck which is accessed through glass sliding doors from the dining area. A great spot to curl up on the weekend and relax with a morning cup of coffee and read your favourite book.

The main bedroom has a large walk-in robe with hanging and shelf space, and the second bedroom has a built-in robe. Both bedrooms are located to the rear of the home away from the living areas affording a quiet space and overlook the private, rear deck.
The bathroom has been renovated and includes a large walk-in shower, vanity, easy care floor to ceiling tiles and a tastic heater. There is a separate toilet and a laundry room with wash tub.
A singe carport provides your car accommodation.
Living in this popular neighbourhood offers a village-like atmosphere being a combination of medium density housing interspersed with green space and interconnecting paths throughout the suburb. The local Swinger Hill shopping centre with its grocery store, café and restaurants, the Canberra Hospital and the Woden Town Centre are only a few minutes' drive away as well as the Canberra Christian School and the Mawson Pre and Primary school. Melrose High and Marist College are centrally located too.
Swinger Hill is a suburb within Phillip but separated by Hindmarsh and Athllon Drives from the main part of Phillip. The name Swinger Hill follows the pattern of calling local trigonometrical points after the surveyor who surveyed them, in this case Louis Walter Henry Swinger (1901-1943) who surveyed this area.
