Unicorn Discovered!

Auction Location: On Site.

Yes, it's a 1 bedroom house in Downer! This is the rarest of rare beasts, the likes of which has not been seen before and may not be seen again! Built of the famous Canberra Reds, the home is cute and has character, charm and potential.

The single bedroom is huge and opens through cedar and glass sliding doors onto a covered hard wood rear deck. It could easily accommodate a study desk or even a small seating area. The home faces perfectly North to the rear and both bedroom and open plan living area make the most of this - the living area also spilling through cedar doors onto the deck. The kitchen is fairly original meaning that there's plenty of scope for the new buyer whilst the bathroom has been updated (in the 80's) and boasts bright red tiles. Smell the roses behind a high red brick courtyard wall which provides privacy to the superbly sunny (and perfectly North facing) back yard and a water feature with fountain evoking images of Tuscany. An enclosed carport with automatic door closes off this compound and adds to the feeling of security and privacy.

If you have been looking for an entry level opportunity into this fabulous suburb, walking distance to the light rail and the hub of Dickson, then look no further - this is it!
