8 Menkens Court, Phillip ACT 2606

Privacy and individuality, synonymous with the unique design principles of the Swinger Hill development are demonstrated in this separate title (no body corporate levies) double storey townhouse.

The open plan living areas flow out onto a terrace with an easterly aspect and leafy outlook into the tree top canopy, which provides a private space to entertain family and friends.

The modern kitchen with dishwasher and electric cook top and oven has plenty of cupboard and bench space as well as a breakfast bar for those informal mid-week meals.

On the upper level, bedrooms 1 and 2 also have access onto the balcony through large glass sliding doors allowing natural light into these areas.

All three bedrooms have built in robes.

Electric reverse cycle air conditioning (ducted on the top level and wall mounted on the lower level) will provide year-round temperature control.

Double glazed windows and doors to the lower and upper levels to the rear of the townhouse allow natural light to flow in.

A built-in bookcase on the landing is a great way to store all your treasured books and have them easily accessible.

Car accommodation is provided by a double enclosed carport with remote controlled door and a generously sized cupboard for storing suitcases etc.

Swinger Hill is a suburb within Phillip but separated by Hindmarsh and Athllon Drives from the main part of Phillip. The name Swinger Hill follows the pattern of calling local trigonometrical points after the surveyor Louis Walter Henry Swinger (1901-1943) who surveyed the area.

Its architect-designed streets and buildings comprising medium density dwellings of townhouses, terraces and duplexes characterise this unique place. The layout of the suburb, designed in the 1970s, is an architectural response to the hillside terrain.

Living at No. 8 with its cul de sac location, offers a low maintenance lifestyle ideally suited to first home buyers, professional couples or young families who will enjoy the vibrant village-like atmosphere being so close to the Canberra Hospital, Woden Town Centre, the local Swinger Hill shopping centre and the Mawson Pre and Primary school.
