Last Listing description (August 2025)

Located in the highly regarded and sought-after 'Oakleaves' development, this second-floor double brick apartment is a rare find in the Kingston market. It is positioned on leafy Howitt Street which is arguably Canberra's prettiest apartment street due to its large Pinoak Trees which line either side. Howitt Street is situated in a fantastic spot, halfway between the Kingston Shops and the Kingston Foreshore, making it walking distance to both as well as Lake Burley Griffin, the Parliamentary Triangle, Telopea Park and Manuka.

With only four apartments per stairwell, this spacious apartment is private and has windows on two sides to allow for both morning and afternoon sun. The floorplan has been well thought-out and the two bedrooms are generously sized, a study, separate toilet and given the apartment is constructed from brick walls it is extremely quiet.

From the moment you step inside you can see that this home has the 'wow factor'. You are met by a large living room that is flooded with sun. The kitchen has been renovated and bathroom has been renovated to a fantastic standard and is sure to appeal to all buyers.

This property is ideal for an owner occupier who wishes to live the best of the Kingston lifestyle or an investor who wishes to secure a long term solidly constructed property in the heart of the most popular rental market in Canberra.
