Last Listing description (April 2018)

Brighton England is known as a costal getaway from the hustle and bustle of London, a place to get away, relax by the water and enjoy the company of some close friends. Well, 'The Brighton' in Kingston lives up to its namesake as it is far enough away from the Kingston Foreshore to be quiet, tranquil and relaxing, yet close enough to walk down on a Friday afternoon and enjoy a beer with friends. This resort style complex also features a pool, tennis court and gym so you can sit back and relax.

Stepping inside you can be somewhat surprised about where to put your furniture, not because it's too small that you're going to have to cull furniture but because it's so spacious and large that you may not have enough. It evokes a sense of presence and solidarity, and its smart design featuresstunning flow out onto the leafy outlook, a separate toilet and ample storage space.


Number 161 would be ideal for an owner occupier or an investor with an expected rental return of $450 - $460 per week. The Kingston rental market has been tightly held this summer and we have seen a large increase in the returns provided to investors. This should continue in years to come.

'The Brighton' is located within walking distance to Kingston shops, the Kingston Foreshore, Manuka and Lake Burley Griffin. It is also therefore within walking distance to the Parliamentary Triangle, a short drive or bike ride to Russell, the CBD or the airport for a transient owner.

Features:
Spacious and filled with natural light Located on the quiet side of the building and overlooking the swimming pool Walking distance to Manuka, Kingston and Barton Gym, pool and tennis court. Separate toilet Situated on tree-lined Kennedy St 90m2 internally
