State-of-the-art 1920s home for sale in Griffith

7 La Perouse Street, Griffith

Price guide: $2.5 million +

QUOTE: “The owners love the character of the property, including its combination of old and new, its proximity to Mauka and the best of Canberra’s attractions, and the enjoyment of an extra large pool set in an established and exquisite garden.”

High-end finishes and state-of-the-art features are concealed behind the understated facade of this charming 1920s home.

The four-bedroom property was completely renovated and extended nine years ago, with every detail carefully considered.

The kitchen is complete with a suite of Miele appliances including a double oven, double dishwasher and induction hotplates. It also features a Vintec wine fridge and a ZIP hot and cold filtered water dispenser.

A large butler’s pantry doubles as a second kitchen with extensive cupboards and bench space.

The formal and informal living rooms are north-facing and feature Spanish marble fireplaces. Cedar doors open these spaces up onto sandstone terraces.

All four bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, quality carpet and underlay. The lavish master suite is segregated and features large picture windows, a walk-in wardrobe, an en suite with a double vanity and access to its own terrace overlooking the main entertaining area.

The alfresco spaces include shade sails and a fountain and lead the way to a large, sparkling lap swimming pool. They are surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens.

In-slab heating, double-glazed windows, a study with built-in cabinetry and chandeliers are just a few of the other inclusions.

All of this is just 400 metres from the heart of Manuka.
