Every so often an apartment comes onto the market that is different from the others. This spacious & light filled 93m2, 2-bedroom apartment is set well back from the road & in an architecturally unique complex called ‘The Whitley', creating a point of difference from the run of the mill.
The clever floorplan offers an opportunity for natural sunlight to stream through both segregated bedrooms & the living/dining area, while the inclusion of a window/door at either end of the apartment allows a cross breeze to circulate on hot summer days. With 2 spacious bedrooms & the main including a near new ensuite, guests will find comfort in their privacy. The open plan living area spreads from the kitchen & flows out to the large alfresco entertaining area; BBQ's around the holidays will be easy & fun - just be sure to buy enough food.
The kitchen includes stone benchtops & stainless steel appliances making it easy for the chef of the family, while the reverse-cycle spilt systems allows for cool summers & warm winters. The car enthusiast will be overjoyed at seeing the single lock-up garage, ensuring the toys are kept clean & giving you peace of mind.
The adjoining Whitley Houses were designed by Government architect, Cuthbert Whitley in 1939 & were among the first government designed & built functionalist style houses in Australia. They are listed on the ACT Chapter of the Royal Australian Institute of Architects Register of Significant Twentieth Century Architecture & are considered to be excellent examples of inter-war functionalist style.
Located within close proximity of Kingston & Manuka Villages, & close to the historically listed Kingston Oval, this is a rare offering in this highly sought after Inner South location. Be sure to inspect for yourself at the next open home.
