This engaging house is well known by many Canberra residents for its artistic heritage. Not only has it been owned by a succession of curators, art historians and artists, for a brief period it functioned as Artwranglers, an innovative domestic gallery space exhibiting both significant historical and emerging artists' such as Axel Poignant, Jon Rhodes, Slim Barrie, Tim Price and Jessie-Rae O'Connor.
Light and bright throughout, this thoughtfully renovated and extended duplex is ideal for those seeking an easy care lifestyle within strolling distance to restaurants, shops, and the Dickson pool. Lyneham Primary and High Schools, Dickson College, and Daramalan College are all within close proximity. It is a two-minute walk to Northbourne Avenue public transport options plus handy access to the city and university bike paths.
In addition to the two-story extension, the current owners have updated both the kitchen and bathroom and incorporated double glazed windows in the extension and most of the ground floor rooms. The German-designed windows can be opened two different ways to ensure an abundance of light and great ventilation options. The family meals area faces north & spills onto a low terracotta tile terrace (great for morning coffee & paper), & the separate formal living space opens to a lovely private & leafy established garden complete with cherry and apple trees and chook house. Double glazing at the front of the house ensures quiet seclusion and privacy.
Add all this together with the block desirably sited in RZ4 zoned area you will be assured of strong capital gains in the years ahead with future development possible with block amalgamation and approvals.
