What you see:
A private estate of a scale that almost no longer exists in Canberra's Inner South.
Held by the same family for nearly 30 years, 4 Vancouver Street spans 9,196 m² with more than 800 m² of residence, seven bedrooms, expansive living spaces, a swimming pool, competition-size tennis court and established grounds that have taken half a century to mature.
The scale is immediately apparent, but it is the combination of land, privacy, position and established landscape that makes the property so difficult to replicate. Set across an elevated north-easterly aspect, the residence opens across sweeping lawns and mature gardens, with outlooks extending toward the pool, tennis court and private grounds beyond.
This is a complete private estate, shaped over decades, with the space to live, entertain, retreat and grow without ever feeling removed from the city around it. A private tennis house, pool facilities, extensive garaging and outdoor entertaining spaces give the property the infrastructure of an estate. Canberra Grammar is within walking distance, while Manuka, the Parliamentary Triangle and the wider Inner South are only minutes away.
Properties like this are held, adapted and eventually passed forward. The next family will leave their mark on it, as generations before them have, but the scale, presence and permanence of the estate will endure.
The opportunity before you is not simply to buy one of Canberra's largest private homes. It is to become the next custodian of one of its most significant residential holdings.
What we see:
A home where ownership is measured in generations, not years.
