When you think of the ideal Inner North lifestyle, the picture doesn't get much better than the one painted at 41/217 Northbourne Ave, Turner. Single level, located in a great spot on level 6 away from busy roads and noise in a modern development.

Whether you're a busy professional or a remote work enthusiast, the open-plan living area offers the ideal blend of functionality and serenity. Come home to a space that works as hard as you do.

Getting to and from work is easy given the proximity to the City, a short walk, bike, scooter or tram ride will get you there. And while staying home is easy, with the incredible amenity that surrounds this property, you'll constantly be drawn out and about.

Weekends are well spent bouncing between the surrounding cafés, perusing the popular Haig Park markets or heading down to the Canberra Centre for some retail therapy. If you'd rather get amongst nature, you can venture to Lake Burley Griffin for a quintessential Canberra Lake Walk, or Mount Ainslie for an equally classic Canberra hike.
