23 Shackleton Circuit, Mawson ACT 2607

Seeing is believing. This property is for anyone who yearns for the freedom of a huge backyard! Build another residence or just enjoy the sublime privacy and personal space to run wild.

Occupying one of the largest blocks on prestigious Shackleton Circuit, designed by renowned architect Michael Dysart and built by David Trend Homes, this is special. Most of the original contemporary features are intact, ambience and comfort assured with the glorious aspect and the majority of the rooms facing the northerly park-like gardens. Then look at the valuable addition of the matching separate studio, currently the owner's art studio, potentially a self-contained garden flat that can generate income, be a work from home office or extra family accommodation with its separate access.
