Set on approximately 1,003 m² on one of Red Hill's most sought-after streets, 218 La Perouse Street offers an outstanding opportunity to create a home designed around you. With a generous, level block and established leafy surrounds, this is a place to plan for the future in Canberra's desirable Inner South.
The appeal lies in the space to start afresh. Knock down and rebuild your own family home, subject to approval, with the layout, finishes and outdoor spaces you have always wanted. Whether you imagine spacious single-level living, room for a growing family or a garden designed for entertaining, this substantial block offers the scope to bring your ideas to life.
For buyers considering an alternative, existing DA-approved plans for two homes are also available. Explore the approved design or pursue your own vision, subject to the relevant approvals.
The existing single-level home includes four bedrooms, separate living and dining areas, a kitchen overlooking the backyard, a spacious sunroom and a rear deck. Currently leased to a family on a month-to-month periodic tenancy, it provides rental income while you develop your plans.
It is a location well suited to putting down roots, with Red Hill Primary School, St Bede's Primary School and Canberra Grammar School nearby. Walk to Red Hill shops and cafés, enjoy the trails of Red Hill nature reserve, or take a short drive to Manuka's restaurants and boutiques. Inner South employment hubs and the city are also within easy reach.
Contact Sisi Chen or Bill Lyristakis to explore the possibilities or arrange an appointment at our office to review the DA-approved plans.
