A rare piece of Canberra history is up for sale.
Built in 1930, this house is one of the few remaining residential properties in the historic Manuka Housing District.
A sympathetic renovation has retained heritage features – like the Canberra red-brick fireplace, wood-fired oven and mint-green kitchen – while adding modern comforts and period-style fittings.
An oversized block presents opportunities to expand or to build a second house on a premium, separate-title parcel.

Take a good look at this home. Does anything seem familiar?
This late modernist masterpiece was designed by architect Clem Cummins, who is also the father of Canberra’s iconic bus shelters. That means you could be living in a beautifully updated slice of 1970s nostalgia.
Bold shapes, crisp geometric lines and dappled bricks make for a striking facade. Inside, the house is split across three levels, and a complete refurbishment has retained the signature modernist features. Living areas are drenched in sunlight through full-height windows. A double-sided gas fireplace warms the heart of the home.
This oversized block is essentially a private estate, offering complete seclusion amid manicured gardens and leafy hedges. An in-ground solar-heated pool, raised deck, and large paved areas (basketball, anyone?) present endless opportunities for entertaining or family fun.
“It’s an exciting offering so often sought and rarely available,” says the agent.

Experience family living on the grandest of scales at this modern home in the Molonglo Valley.
Covering almost 400 square metres over three levels, there’s space for entertaining, relaxing, working and playing.
Ceilings soar to six metres in the living areas, and a high-set gallery walkway leads to the luxurious master retreat, occupying the whole top floor. A self-contained ground floor suite with bedroom, bathroom and kitchen is ideal for extended family or teens.
