Unbeatable investment - 3 bedroom en-suite townhouse on separate title

Private Sale - inspections by appointment only

Increases in property value come from land. Buildings, on the other hand, slowly lose value. This townhouse has title to its own land. So it outclasses properties where land ownership is complicated by the politics and annual charges of a body corporate. The property is currently earning a great rental return. The icing on the cake is that the title allows commercial use of the ground floor, making it ideal for professionals like doctors, lawyers and accountants.

This is a stylish two-storey home designed for a low-maintenance lifestyle and built around a completely private sunny courtyard bordered by a small garden bed. There are established trees front and back, an in-ground watering system and rain water tanks.

Open the well-designed window treatments and natural light floods into any room. Double glazing keeps the temperature pleasant all year and boosts the energy efficiency of the air conditioner/heater.

The gourmet kitchen features ample work space and storage with modern finishes such as Caesar-stone benches, sleek cabinetry, breakfast bar and quality appliances. It has a lovely courtyard outlook and is the home's natural gathering place, linking the lounge room, family room and barbeque area in a smooth-flowing open plan design with elegant high ceilings - an entertainers dream.

Completing the downstairs picture, a door at one end of the family room leads to a powder room, a well equipped laundry and internal access to a double garage with a remote-controlled panel-lift-door that opens onto the quiet rear street. In the garage is a ducted vacuum system, shelving and a door to the under-stairs storage.

Upstairs, all three bedrooms have ample built in robes and the main bathroom includes separate bath and shower. The master bedroom has its own sizeable ensuite and the other two bedrooms enjoy an outdoor sitting area on a pergola-covered balcony with views to the CIT horticultural gardens, the AIS playing fields and Black Mountain Tower.

Location, location, central location! Bruce is Canberra's rising executive suburb, not least because Gungahlin, Woden, Tuggeranong, Belconnen and Civic are an easy 10-20 minute drive on highways with two lanes in each direction.
