Hidden away in the middle of buzzing Kingston is Canberra’s prettiest apartment street.
Part of the boutique The Holford building, the three-bedroom townhouse at 4/2 Howitt Street promises a tranquil retreat from the city.
Designed to soothe and inspire, this home delivers calm and comfort in equal measure, says agent Nick Purnell of Purnell.

Spread over three levels, expansive windows look out over leafy pin oaks, flooding the rooms with natural light.
The ground floor houses the main-bedroom suite with a private, sun-dappled courtyard.
A modern kitchen and two living areas occupy the middle floor, while the upper level has two more bedrooms and a flexible space with built-in shelving. This could be a playroom or the library of your dreams.

A stunning French Invicta Tipi fireplace warms the home and makes for a functional piece of art.
Purnell says Howitt Street is positioned just one street away from the Kingston shops and a short walk to the Kingston Foreshore.
“This means you will have the local cafes, restaurants, the Supabarn shopping precinct and Lake Burley Griffin all at your doorstep,” he says. “If you’re a Parliamentary Triangle worker, work will only be a short ride or walk through Telopea Park away.”
The December 13 auction has a price guide of $1.85 million-plus.
