1/36 Morell Close, Belconnen ACT 2617

A unique opportunity presents for the busy and discerning buyer looking for a permanent base in Canberra in time for the next financial year. This immaculate and light filled home may be your ideal private retreat.

Located in a peaceful residential enclave of quality homes close to the Belconnen Town Centre and Lake Ginninderra, this lovely apartment is being offered fully furnished and equipped. Move-in ready, all you will need is a toothbrush and your clothes!

Hakea is a tightly held private two-storey building in a fashionable HIA award-winning enclave developed as a niche residential estate by Madison Construction in 2005. This unique and well-appointed apartment is in a highly sought-after location away from the high rise but within easy access to excellent employment, shopping, entertainment, sporting and medical facilities in the Belconnen region.

Upon entering you will be impressed with the well-designed spacious living areas fitted with energy efficient Low E window glass film for comfort throughout all four seasons. The apartment is at the southern end of the building with a very private leafy garden outlook from all windows and a glorious wrap-around covered balcony and courtyard garden with rear gate access to the adjacent reserve lands.

The excellent design allows for an abundance of linen cupboards along the bedroom hallway and generous built-in robes to all bedrooms. There is a computer cupboard in the entrance hall and a utility cupboard and European laundry cupboard in the bedroom hall.

A comfort-adjustable king-size double bed awaits the weary traveler, and two minor bedrooms are furnished with comfortable single beds and study desks for students. Relax and sink into the soft leather lounge suite to enjoy a DVD at home with surround sound.

When you do not feel like cooking in the well-appointed kitchen, choose from the many eateries, bars, and cafes in Belconnen Town Centre just down the road. It is a 2 minute drive, or a 10 minute stroll along the new garden paths accessed from the adjacent reserve.

When you are ready for more action, Canberra has terrific bike paths to enjoy. Stroll or jog the 7km loop around Lake Ginninderra. You can even paddle a canoe on the lake.
