Cafes, parks, nightlife, beautiful scenery - Kingston has it all. Weekends buzz with coffee drinkers, kids play in Telopea Park, it's a short walk down to the foreshore of Lake Burley Griffin, and it's home to some of the best restaurants in the city. I've lived on Giles St. for the last five years, and I would never consider moving.
Sure, it is a pretty expensive part of town, but that's what you get for living in a place that is beautiful, stylish, and exciting.
Telopea Park school is a short walk across the park, there's a pre-school on Giles St., and it's a feeder suburb for Narrabundah College, which is consistently one of the highest-rated colleges in the territory. For those who want to send their children to private schools, St. Edmunds and St. Clare's are within walking distance on Canberra Avenue.
This is really the cultural hub of the ACT. My apartment has views to the lake and to Black Mountain, and I can watch the sun set from my balcony over a glass of wine. Truly a wonderful place to live.
