2/12 Jalanga is a timeless architectural townhouse, commissioned by the National Capital Development Commission in the 1960s. The initial control drawings were completed by renowned architect Dirk Bolt in 1966.
Like many other suburban hubs of that time, the townhouses were designed in combination with the neighbourhood shopping centre. Taking advantage of the sloping site, Bolt stepped each of the four townhouse buildings in an east-west direction down the hill, with an off centre, 90-degree gabled roof which was repeated but in reverse for the neighbourhood centre.
Characteristic of the timeless footprint of it's counterparts, 2/12 Jalanga has two generously sized bedrooms, each equipped with built-in robes and reverse cycle air conditioning and ceiling fans ensures year-round comfort, making it a welcoming home in all seasons.
Luxe brand new wool carpets through the bedrooms and stairwell, dappled light from the decorative exterior breeze-block feature, and a character filled bathroom make 2/12 Jalanga instantly feel like home.
Downstairs, the large laundry and water closet combine functionality with the adjoining the north-facing open-plan kitchen and living space. Natural light cascades across the freshly refinished timber floors, and draws you out to the courtyard shaded by an established Japanese maple.
The double carport includes a handy storage shed. There's also ample visitor parking making entertaining friends and family a breeze.
Enjoy the ritual of a bacon and egg roll and morning coffee from Two Before Ten, fill your home with vibrant homewares from Meet Gather Collect, or find your zen at Illeso Studio, all located just moments away.
Aranda is a prime location, leafy landscape and architecturally significant homes are what makes it unique, and such a coveted location. The blend of architectural charm and modern amenities makes this townhouse an ideal living space for style, comfort, and connectivity.
2/12 Jalanga encompasses all the benefits of living in Aranda and bundles it up in a delightfully compact example of Canberra's rich design history.
