Last Listing description (July 2025)

In the 60s ,70s and 80s Canberra enjoyed the creative design influences of some stunning architecture creators. Macquarie Court in Barton is one of those residential wonders located in our country's National Capital parliamentary precinct.

The complex has an excellent pedigree since it was built in 1985 with post-modernist design and an abundance of space and the intelligent ways of incorporating as much natural sunlight as possible for its apartment's interior residences enjoyment.

It can comfortably be considered as a 3-bedroom en-suite study executive apartment or as a 3 bedroom ens apartment with three living spaces if that suits your needs more by allowing the second upper-level space to act as a second sun filled lounge-room.
