This beautifully presented duplex was once a part of the Australian National University development that was built to house the academic staff in the 1960s. Built around a common green the development was cleverly designed to encourage a tight-knit community, which still continues today.The home has been cleverly transformed to now offer two separate living areas, a study, kitchen, laundry and second toilet on the lower level. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, a study nook and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is very generous in size and includes a north facing sitting area with a sunny outlook to adjoining parkland.The owners have maintained the property very well over the years and have spared no expense in improving the energy efficiency of the home by installing tilt and turn double-glazed windows throughout. They have also upgraded the kitchen and bathroom and carried out significant painting throughout.An added bonus is the studio, which is attached to the semi-enclosed carport. It offers the new owner the perfect opportunity to set up a hobby room or to work from home. It opens into the private and sunny courtyard garden, which is ideal for a relaxed barbeque.Don't miss this opportunity to purchase in popular Hughes and be a part of Canberra's history. Just move in and enjoy this upgraded separate title home which is only moments from transport, local shops, excellent schools and is an easy walk to Woden, the hospital precinct and only a short drive to the Parliamentary triangle and the CBD.Living size approximately 129 square metresBlock size approximately 326 square metresFeatures:Double glazed UPVC tilt and turn windowsSplit system air conditioningEnclosed carport with automatic doorStudioFully fenced private courtyard garden with drippersDownstairs:Family room opening onto small north-facing deckCombined north facing lounge room and dining roomStudyUpgraded kitchen with dishwasherSeparate upgraded laundry Powder roomLinen cupboardUpstairs:Generous master bedroom with sitting area and built-in cupboards and shelvesDouble bedroom with built-in robeStudy nook with built-in deskUpgraded bathroom
