From Forde to Torrens: Top homes to inspect in Canberra this weekend

We’ve collated the best homes on the market right now in Canberra to add to your inspection planner this weekend.

Torrens

129 Gouger Street

Open: 12.30pm, Saturday October 18

Agent: Independent Property Group South, Jonathan Charles

When a home presents with manicured tiered front gardens and stone retaining walls against a backdrop of Mount Taylor, you know you’re in for something special. The stunning residence sits in an elevated position on an impressive 1316-square-metre block and makes full use of every inch.

“The home combines timeless architecture with modern updates and an enviable position,” says the agent.

A grand entrance leads into the foyer, where the split-level design unfolds. Raked ceilings and polished timber floors are a highlight in the main living area that flows seamlessly into a light-filled formal dining area through large double doors. 

Towards the rear, the gleaming kitchen offers leafy views and features stone bench tops, white cabinetry and top-of-the-line appliances. 

The rear of the home, however, is truly exceptional. Surrounded by irrigated gardens, with a salt-chlorinated pool, outdoor kitchen and ample space for al fresco dining, there’s nowhere else you’d rather be.
