Last Listing description (November 2022)

Packed with potential and superbly located within a desirable pocket of Canberra's Inner North, this home is a must-view for astute buyers. There's no denying it, there is work to be done here however, the potential to add value is significant.

It's easy to see why this location is sought after. The local Watson shops are vibrant with The Knox Cafe and gourmet supermarket. Local schools are good and Canberra City is a short drive or Light Rail ride away. With the addition of the Dickson Shops and pool, farmers markets, wineries and walking trails close by, you will be enjoying all that Canberra has to offer without having to travel far.

Rent out each dwelling separately or live in one and rent out the other while you plan your renovation.
