Beautiful 4 br house close to lake

Description

This spacious four-bedroom house is on a quiet street in the central suburb of Campbell. It’s the comfortable home for an academic couple. About fifteen years old, it’s a fully furnished and very contemporary light-filled residence. The downstairs living area is open-plan with generously high ceilings. There are two comfortable lounge areas (one with TV), a large contemporary kitchen with plenty of bench space and adjoining dining area. Tucked away is a laundry with washer & drier plus a downstairs WC. Oven is electric and the cooktop gas. The kitchen is well-equipped, making entertaining a joy. Upstairs is the master bedroom with ensuite and dressing room, a family bathroom (with bath and separate shower), and three other bedrooms, one of which has a double bed. The other two bedrooms are presently configured as offices. Further beds could be added to these rooms by arrangement, but inquire quickly because the owners are soon heading overseas. Towels, bedding, and other basics are all supplied. The outside area consists of private courtyards at the front and back of the building. Campbell is a peaceful suburb with winding streets and beautiful trees. The house is close to the city centre (3 km to the General Post Office) and a little further to the Australian National University. It is only a ten-minute walk to the parkland of Lake Burley-Griffin where there are footpaths and cycle trails that connect with a city-wide network. The excellent location and services make it possible to go car-free (as the owners discovered) – not guaranteed in Canberra. The Australian War Memorial is a twenty-minute walk from the house. The National Gallery a thirty-minute walk. A nearby bus stop on Constitution Avenue provides frequent service to the city, ANU, and – in the other direction – Canberra Airport (only ten minutes away). The government office complex in the adjoining suburb of Russell is easily walkable. A small shopping area with GP, post-office, dentist, cafés, restaurant, and basic supermarket is a five-minute walk from the door.
