17/28 Black Street

This regal three-bedder is arrayed across two levels and is bookended by cooling courtyard gardens, alive with ferns, climbing vines and pretty plantings. High brick walls privatise and enclose and there is a lovely feeling of lushness that feels oh so invitational. The home itself brims with texture and tone, is arrayed across two levels and delivers on generous proportions. There is a magic, soulful with notes of mid-century alongside a rarified specialness. Perhaps it's the pedigree of the early 80s solid brick build, the enveloping greenery and of course, the divine location. Yarralumla Shores lives up to its namesake, as charming brick townhouses edge the lapping waters of Lake Burley Griffin. No.17 nestled within a complex of shady trees, old world gardens and informed by tranquillity and story. It is an easy stroll to Yarralumla Beach and the endless expanses of Stirling Park. This whole area made special by its gorgeous natural surroundings, water views, fabulous local shops, impressive array of embassies and easy proximity to the Parliamentary Triangle House, Manuka and the CBD. The ground floor is given over to social spaces that commune with generous grace. There is a big living combined dining that flows to an enormous kitchen. Both social spaces spill to your choice of courtyards, perfect for following the light and entertaining. There is a laundry and downstairs with a separate toilet, so nobody has to traipse upstairs. We love the welcoming feel of the kitchen with its pop of emerald, green set against mint cabinetry and earthy tiled floors. There is enough space for a meals table set beneath the big windows. Banks of cupboards and open shelving take care of storage and display, while the appliances are all electric and include a dishwasher. Glass sliders deliver you to fresh air and restorative natural immersion, including a secret alfresco nook, beneath a vine twined arbour. All three bedrooms are privatised upstairs and serve up excellent built-in-storage. The master bedroom is huge and opens to a balcony, so you can step outside to greet the beauty of the well-tended surrounds. A walk-thru-robe is tucked away behind a clever bedhead wall, and there is the privacy of an ensuite bathroom. Bedroom two also enjoys balcony access and both additional bedrooms sit close to a large family bathroom. Here delicate marbling in a blush of pink, steals the show and there is a relaxing bathtub. It is an easy meandering stroll to the local shops, where favourites include- Farmers Daughter Café, Bees & Co, the iconic Turkish Halal Pide House and Minima for exciting Asian fusion. Deakin shops are just moments away with Double Shot serving up great coffee, and it is a short trip to the boutique shopping and dining experiences of Manuka and Kingston. Parliament house and the historic Hyatt Hotel are nearby landmarkscroquet anyone? And it is a short walk to the Yacht Club for relaxed lunches on a fab waterside balcony. Red Hill nature reserve stretches to the south with its elevated views over Canberra. The home is close to a variety of schools and transport and it is less than 9kms to the CBD. features. .soulful and spacious three-bedroom townhouse in coveted Yarralumla .dream location right on the water's edge .iconic boutique development nestled within beautiful common gardens .flowing to private garden courtyards on two sides .solid brick build with vintage charm .generous proportions and balanced plan, arrayed across two levels .double garage with storage and internal entry .spacious combined living and dining area opening to both courtyards .big kitchen combined meals spilling to courtyard with alfresco dining beneath a vine twined arbour .kitchen with lots of storage, pops of texture and colour, electric wall oven, electric cooktop and dishwasher .downstairs laundry with separate toilet .master bedroom upstairs, opening to balcony with sweeping treetop views .walk-thru-robe and ensuite .second bedroom opening to a private balcony with a built-in-robe .third bedroom also with a built-in-robe .big family bathroom with bathtub .large linen cupboard .underfloor heating .easy stroll to Yarralumla shops, Stirling Park and Lake Burley Griffin .close to local schools and transport .prime inner-south locale, moments from Capital Hill, Deakin, Barton, Manuka and Kingston .less than 9kms to the CBD Fine details (all approximately) Build Size: 160 sqm EER: 3.0 Built in: 1982 Rates: $6,771 p/a Body Corporate: $1,402.92 p/q Strata Manager: Link Strata Management Number of units in complex: 26 Disclaimer: The information contained in this advertisement is derived from sources we deem reliable.
