11 Barkly Crescent, Forrest ACT 2603

In one of Canberra's most beautiful tree-lined streets this charming and stately residence has all the hallmarks of an original Oakley and Parkes home and the property sits proud on a generous 1,880m2 block surrounded by mature gardens.
The current residence is bright and airy and boasts 3 bedrooms, a study, and a wide entrance foyer as you enter. The kitchen, and the formal and informal living rooms overlook a substantial rear garden, while a delightful, sunny family room has French doors and opens out to a paved entertaining terrace. Old world charm is evident throughout, with high ceilings, oversized windows, and generously proportioned bedrooms making this a comfortable home and providing well for a family. The home can also easily be upgraded and provides the ideal opportunity to either renovate the existing residence or embark on a more significant project and completely rebuild to add value in this premier location.
This property comes with pre-approved plans by Collins Pennington, one of Canberra's most sought-after architects.
Whether you choose to renovate or rebuild, your stunning new home will be secluded behind a mature hedge and the gently elevated position will take advantage of the true northerly sun to the rear of the property. Plus, you'll be just minutes to top Canberra schools, Manuka Village, and the Parliamentary precinct.
