One Of The Finest Terrace Homes

Welcomed to the market is this exceptionally constructed high-end Terrace, positioned in one of Canberra's most sought-after suburbs. Placed amongst the most gorgeous tree-lined street that transforms through the seasons.

Rarely will you find a Terrace Home built to the very highest level of finish, that has been constructed with absolute attention to detail and a premium level of designer inclusions. From the Copper cladding with its evolving Patina.

The level of care that has gone into this entire project is evident from the moment you walk inside. Inspiration was drawn from the classic Brownstone townhouse architecture in New York, which offers a natural light drenched semi submerged basement.

TEMPUS was architecturally designed by renowned COX Architecture and showcases the very best in high-end Terrace living! Every terrace offers its own individual gated street access with individual street numbers and internal basement access. This home directly overlooks a private garden, never to be built out, offering a leafy outlook year-round. It is easy to see why TEMPUS was awarded a prestigious MBA award.

Number 59 is a stunning three-bedroom, two-bathroom Terrace that offers a two-car (tandem) garage plus an additional allocated car space. As you enter the home, you will be in awe of the sleek, modern, sophisticated palette. A gorgeously appointed front sitting room with custom cabinetry that could be easily converted into a formal dining room, a designer kitchen straight from a Home Magazine, finished with Cosentino Stone benchtops and quality SMEG appliances with an attached stone 6-seater custom stone dining table.

This is an entertainer's dream, as you welcome your guests for a summer night soiree with champagne overflowing and a selection of your favourite cheeses on display, the perfect space for a glamorous cocktail party. Offering two outdoor entertaining spaces; to the front your very own private garden with two mature Japanese Maples, the perfect space to enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee and bask in the morning sun. To the rear a generous paved entertaining courtyard that overlooks the leafy private garden with views to Telstra Tower and the very best sunsets Turner has to offer.

On offer is the rare chance to buy into the finest lifestyle, where from your front door, your new local could be the O'Connor shops, only a short 13-minute walk down the road, or the local coffee shop, only a 3-minute walk. The local IGA for your weekly grocery shop, the Duxton when you don't feel like cooking, pharmacy, GP, post office, florist, café. Perhaps on a Sunday, as the owner currently enjoys, a brisk walk to the Haig Park Village Markets, where all the delicacies are on offer, from fresh bread, coffee, dessert, pastries and fresh fruit & vegetables. Plentiful cafes and restaurants line the streets of Braddon, your new backyard, all a short walk from your front door. Your new Inner North lifestyle.
