LISTING DESCRIPTION
as of August 2019

available until February 2020 This precious heritage home, surrounded by the original residences of the first garden precinct in Canberra, now finds its place in a rejuvenated and redeveloped precinct of the city. Built at a time when Canberra's population was still shy of 6000, the home has stood with beautiful simplicity for over 90 years. A timeless design with undiminishing pleasure, the home wistfully draws you in and inspires. A forever home outlasts fashions and fads. The home's lovely layers of life and living, with warm textured interiors and a timeless aesthetic, mingled with new finds, personal pieces and whimsical gardens. The Braddon Housing Precinct 1921 -1927 has always been perfectly located. Doonkuna Street was fortunate to have a central garden, playground and tennis court, gorgeous red brick cottages shaded by established plane trees, designed to the original Griffin Plan. Now it is surrounded by choice, close to everything that is central to our city - boutique local shopping centers, the Braddon Precinct, C5, New Acton, Founder's Lane and the City, with all the energy of cosmopolitan living. As Braddon continues its exciting growth, this precinct's beauty and enduring character are assured: heritage protection means this will continue to be a garden neighbourhood, a reminder of the original garden city vision for Canberra. features .built in 1926, beautifully presented inside and out with modern updates sympathetic to the original home .light filled and bathed in sunlight the home offers 181m (approx.) living area .formal living room and adjoining dining room with marble fire hearth, Tasmanian oak floors and double glazed french doors on both sides connecting with alfresco balcony and terrace .light filled family room with soaring timber panelled ceilings, perfect for children and teenagers retreat .kitchen with gorgeous window seat, dishwasher and gas hob .main bedroom with en suite bathroom and beautiful leafy tree lined outlook .second bedroom fondly referred to by the current owner as the garden room, lovely outlook, study nook and built-in wardrobe .generous third bedroom with built-in wardrobe .northly aspect to the inner courtyard and alfresco area, french doors from both living areas connecting with the gardens .beautifully maintained bathroom with heritage charm, integrated laundry .sash windows throughout, honeycomb blinds in the living, dining and main bedroom, EER 3 .heritage cornices, timber sash windows, double brick, high ceilings, terracotta roof tiles .back to base alarm system .additional open storage in the roof space accessed by pull-down stairs .double glazing to the living room french doors, dining room french doors, large kitchen window and large window in the main bedroom .solar systems including one with a feed-in tariff (high $ return), one with regular tariff and solar hot water .picket fence, veggie patch, established gardens and screening plants .single carport and additional original brick garage ideal for storage .a most convenient and desirable city location only footsteps to the CBD, Glebe Park, cafes and restaurants, Lake Burley Griffin and the exciting precincts of the City and Braddon EER 3.0 pets welcome available early september until february 2020 .this property is unfurnished .rent is paid calendar monthly on the first day of each month .bond = 4 weeks rent .applicants or a representative on their behalf must inspect the property before any applications will be processed .you can apply by 1form.com.au - sent to [email protected] . click the "book inspection' button and register your information. if no time offered or if the time does not suit, please still register and we will contact you once access is arranged . if you do not register, we cannot notify you of any time changes, cancellations or further inspection times .disclaimer hbh collective take all due care in with the details provided regarding properties for rent, however we accept no responsibility for any inaccuracies herein.
