For the current owners, this home in Farrer was just so nice they bought it twice!  

“They were lucky enough to buy the second time on their return to Canberra,” says LJ Hooker Canberra City sales manager and auctioneer, Kaylene King.

“[They] have said the location is just amazing for day-to-day convenience and the home is just instantly warm and inviting.”

Sitting on a 662sqm block – which extends beyond the courtyard walls – the three-bedroom home is filled with natural light and allows for indoor-outdoor living. The bathroom, kitchen and separate laundry have all been renovated, while the open-plan living area is spacious and versatile – perfect for any buyer.

“The outstanding feature of this home is the light; it is perfectly aspected to make the most of light and sun,” says King. “The high-set clerestory windows allow light to filter right through the home.”

She says the home would suit young buyers looking for an entry point into the popular suburb, or those looking to downsize, such as a “more mature couple who currently live locally, perhaps wanting to stay in the area but do away with a large block and stairs”.

1 Bruce Place also boasts a main bedroom with walk-in robe and ensuite, covered entertaining area and two outdoor courtyards. There’s also a walk-in pantry in the kitchen, reverse-cycle air conditioning and established gardens with dripper system, as well as a double carport with lock-up storage.

King says the location of this delightful dwelling is hard to beat, close to a range of amenities including popular café, Fox and Bow.

“The home is directly across the road from the local pre and primary schools, and an easy walk to the local Farrer shops for a great coffee, meal or groceries.”
