This double brick, late 1930's home was built in an era when master craftsmen still took pride in their work. When you buy this home you will in fact be buying a piece of Griffith's history. (a large piece at that). From the heritage colours to the high ceilings and plaster cornice, everything about this home speak to a less complicated time and place. The style, character and elegance of this home will appeal to people of a similar ilk.
On arrival you are greeted with double doors to a formal entry. The kitchen is a lesson in integrating the old, with the new. An induction cooktop and European appliances are thoughtfully complimented with a wood fired stove, keeping with the character of the home. The stone benchtops pantry and cupboard space finish this chef's style kitchen. The oversized lounge room will mean entertaining guests at dinner parties will be a breeze.
All six bedrooms are large and have new carpet. The master bedroom is enormous and has space for a sitting area and study within. The master also has ensuite and access to a rear balcony which over looks a lush leafy courtyard.
The dining room is near kitchen, and there is also, sensibly a second sitting room opposite. This will be ideal for guests, and or children as you prepare your gourmet meals from the kitchen.
A lovely rear courtyard will be an ideal place to relax with a glass of wine after a hard days work. You are minutes from Griffith shops and Manuka, and some of Canberra's best private and public schools.
There is a working garden with a host of fruit and vegetable plantings. A woodshed and potting shed as well. There is a new double garage as well as the original garage behind, with easy access through a rear roller door. This will appeal to people not fooled by a modern veneer and understand quality construction and style.
