Supremely located on Kingston's Kennedy Street with an abundance of local cafes, restaurants and bars at your doorstep, this spacious two bedroom apartment is in the heart of the action. Further away but still a short walk is Lake Burley Griffin, the Kingston Foreshore and the Parliamentary Triangle. This means you will have all of the best amenity at your doorstep.
This offering marries the older style brick construction with the updated finishes seen in newer units, meaning you have the latest mod cons but the quality construction of an older building. The brick construction means it has great thermal and noise insulation. It has windows on both sides and unlike newer apartments this means it is filled with natural light. In summer you are able to get great cross ventilation as the sliding doors can be opened to both of your large balconies.
Stepping inside you will be taken aback by the generous size of the apartment as it has separate living and dining areas, whilst not compromising on space in either one. This gives you the option of having two meals areas or a large living space. The property is also located on the end of the complex and therefore has only one neighbour.
The property will suit an owner occupier or an investor looking to secure a fantastic Inner South property.
In Summary: - Great location - Great condition but also a great renovation prospect - Two large balconies - Separate toilet - Air conditioning - Brick construction - Flooded with afternoon sun
