This weekend, we shine a light on Canberra’s most beautiful properties for sale. Boot up the Allhomes app and browse through these new homes on the market, some of which you can virtually inspect via agents offering Facetime tours or book into a private appointment.

Outside, the entertainment area set under a canopy of wisteria will give you the perfect space for hosting family and friends (just as soon as we’re allowed to do so again).
