34 Currong Street South, Reid, ACT 2612

So few opportunities arise in this tightly held suburb-fewer still offer such an inspiring foundation for home and land in the heart of the Nation's Capital.

A charming facade, the original c1926 period residence is a Federal Capital Commission Type 1, graced with charming character features. Lovingly restored and extended, it showcases faithful reproductions of original architraves, cornices, light fittings, fireplaces and tessellated tiles, all enhanced by heritage colour schemes in the living spaces. 

Set prominently on one of Reid's largest blocks, the home enjoys a superb rear north-facing orientation. The level, established gardens are a visual delight, with rolling lawns, flourishing borders, raised vegetable beds, and fruit trees-an abundant kitchen garden in full measure. A conservatory provides the perfect retreat to bask in the winter sun or unwind on balmy summer evenings, not to mention a flexibility of use, as a space for university aged children or extended families with older parents residing on the same block.

Accommodation includes three bedrooms, a lounge, dining room or fourth bedroom, and a generous open-plan kitchen/living space. The heart of the home is a spacious cook's kitchen, with dual preparation areas, ample storage, and large north-facing windows that draw in natural light. French doors open to the private gardens, seamlessly connecting to the garage/office pavilion. The extended double garage features two versatile rooms-currently used as a home office and guest space-plus a bathroom and rear conservatory.

A special home in a coveted garden city.
