The vendors are retiring interstate, so it's time to say a fond farewell to their much loved home of over 14 years. They are going to miss the central location close to Woden town centre and easy connections to Canberra facilities and great walking trails close-by. Whether you work in Civic, Russell Offices or the Parliamentary triangle it's only a 20 minutes drive.

Built in 2008, the home has been meticulously maintained and improved. The most recent additions are a 5m x 6m natural timber decked outdoor space, a 6.4kw solar power system and heat-pump hot water. The vendors report their summer quarter power bill was under $200!

For you, the new owner, the home has been freshly painted in sophisticated tones with new carpets to the main bedroom suite. But that's not all, there is LED lighting throughout, security doors and screens and an alarm system.
