Welcome to The Grounds in Braddon and your opportunity to secure a beautiful apartment in arguably one of the very best complexes in the Canberra CBD. With easy walking access to the City and an amazing selection of bars and cafes at your doorstep, there are not many better locations to experience city living.
The three bedroom, two bathroom, apartment itself is quite simply; stunning. As it has only been used sparingly by the original owners, it really is in excellent condition and has been presented magnificently. This is a rare offering and opportunity in this tightly-held complex that should certainly be on your inspection list.
In addition to offering an incredible feeling of penthouse-style living with gorgeous panoramic views across Braddon Oval towards Mt Ainslie, it has cleverly been set away from the main roads and given its northerly orientation, absorbs a tremendous amount of natural lighting. The thoughtful design ensures that the balcony finds itself positioned to enjoy the sunrises, and the sunsets all year round.
There is a lovely sense of space felt in the open plan living area due to the bathing of sunlight and it features a generously proportioned kitchen with both design space for stools at the breakfast bar and a dining area. Both forward facing bedrooms also capture an abundance of natural light, while the third room could provide multiple uses as bedroom, study, rumpus, nursery or games room.
The property also offers a private, remote double garage in the basement which is again, another premium offering as part of the ownership of this wonderful apartment. The extra storage space and security afforded by the enclosed garaging will certainly be viewed as a particularly advantageous element of this property by the new owner.
Conveniently located and bordering the City precinct, you are within a short walk to the fantastic range of offerings at the Canberra Centre, close to the main city bus interchange, light rail, and the Australian National University. It really is perfect for those wanting a central CBD location and everything at their fingertips.
