Every now and then a bargain like this comes up offering great potential to astute prospective 1st home buyers/investors wishing to find an affordable entry level property in the desirable inner south. Close to Manuka, Kingston and Griffith shops and the area’s myriad community facilities, open spaces and the lake foreshore. You could leave the car at home – take the bus, walk or ride to work – dramatically reduce your daily carbon footprint in this place.
We are offering to you a three bedroom weatherboard, single-storey, Commonwealth constructed (for the ANU) residence with internal plasterboard walls and ceiling, timber floor and pitched roof construction with metal roofing. Over the years, its several owners have modified the internal fitout to suit their needs. Current owners were previously posted overseas for several years – the tenant who rented the home during that time wanted to buy it … she loved living there. Alas for her, the owners chose to return to their nest. It is now time to for them to move on. So we’re looking for just the right person/s who will enjoy the home and its nifty location as they have.
Some features you’ll note when you come:
* bedrooms 1 & 2 have built-in robes
* bedroom 3 is currently used as a study
* hard wood polished floors in bedroom wing
* hard floors under floor coverings in rest of house
* separate dressing room

* rear garden has numerous fruit trees thanks to early European owner
* single timber & metal attached garage with “Roll-a-Door” and light installed
