The upper level comprises three spacious bedrooms and an additional bathroom, all offering outlooks over the gardens and elevated vantages across Canberra.
The grounds are established, private and feature an in-ground swimming pool.
With period features throughout including timber floors, cedar windows and high ceilings. Complete with a double garage plus off-street parking.
