Built in 1936 for Sir Peter Heydon and carefully architecturally designed, renovated and extended with the help of his daughter, is this spectacular home combining original aspects of its bygone era and now with a modern induction of style and class.
Located in one of Canberra's best streets and most prestigious suburbs, the home sits proudly on 2475m2 of prime sought after Forrest land.
Offering a flexible layout that consists of five bedrooms, formal lounge and dining rooms, a library and modern updated kitchen that features fantastic linkage to the meals and outdoor entertaining terrace.
The three separate living areas and outdoor spaces ooze style and live ability and create a sense of grandeur in the home. This is a property that can not only serve as day to day family sanctuary but also as an entertainer for special guests that will admire and appreciate its presence.
The mature gardens again give an impression of distinctive style and formality that only a property of this address can successfully achieve.
Being well located close to a vibrant cafe and shopping culture in Manuka and Kingston as well as a plethora of Canberra's top schools at your doorstep ensures this property and location are 'blue chip'.
