67/2 Edinburgh Avenue, City, ACT 2601

This light filled single-level 3-bedroom inner-city residence is situated in the Metropolitan complex over the road from the vibrant New Acton precinct, a short stroll to Lake Burley Griffin. It is one of the largest 3-bedroom apartments in the heart of the city and has picturesque views towards Black Mountain and the Brindabellas.

This lovely home has an extra-large open plan living area enabling a very flexible layout. Currently there is a lounge area with a balcony off it, an adjacent dining area which comfortably seats 8, a small seating area into which the table can extend to easily seat 14 and an office or library with built-in joinery and which is partially partitioned off from the rest of the area but still has the calming benefit of the peaceful views.

The galley style kitchen is well-positioned, central to the living area. There is plenty of updated storage, German appliances, a near-new oven and 20mm stone benchtops. The benchtop has been extended to allow for extra entertaining space or a breakfast bar.

The property is on level 8, on the corner of the development and has high ceilings. The main living area and bedrooms face North so are flooded with sunlight through the floor to ceiling windows. The zoned air conditioning is rarely needed on sunny days in winter. See-through blinds have been fitted which reduce the afternoon glare and heat in summer.

All the bedrooms are positioned to the rear of the property. Each bedroom has built-in robes, curtains, and floor to ceiling windows for natural light. The main bedroom suite has a walk-through robe, ensuite and a personal balcony for added enjoyment. The main bathroom is well-apportioned with a bathtub and offers easy access to the bedrooms.

Internally, the layout has been expertly designed to cater for different lifestyles - from young professionals, through families with children to retirees downsizing.

There is plenty of storage within the property. The separate laundry room and linen cupboard provide plenty of space. In addition, there is a storage shed within the basement car park adjacent to the 2 side-by-side car spaces allocated to this apartment.

Within easy walking distance you have the City Centre, Braddon (Lonsdale & Mort Street), Canberra Theatre, The Australian National University and New Acton with a plethora of restaurants, cafes, bars, shops, and the Palace movie Theatre.

Amenities within the Metropolitan complex include an indoor swimming pool, gym, sauna, communal gardens, and barbecue area.
