76 Duffy St, Ainslie ACT 2602, Australia
This home is all about location! Positioned on the high side of one of Ainslie’s most sought-after streets, with sweeping views to Black Mountain and Telstra Tower, this property offers an exceptional opportunity to renovate or knock down and rebuild (STCA) in a tightly held Inner North locale. While the home is in need of love and attention, the generous 703m2 block make it an exciting prospect for renovators and rebuilders ready to transform it into something special again.
The existing property is not without charm and holds plenty of original mid-century details. It features a generous living and dining area with spectacular views and two bedrooms sharing an original bathroom. A third room has been opened up to extend the lounge but could easily be reinstated, while the kitchen is also in original condition, offering a solid footprint for renovation.
A spacious north-facing rumpus room is drenched in sunlight, with wall-to-wall windows and sliding doors connecting to the outdoor entertaining area, ideal for weekend barbecues, family celebrations, or simply relaxing in the warmth of the sun.
Completing the picture is a lock-up garage with an adjoining workshop or storage room, and a carport for additional off-street parking.
Both the front and rear gardens are well established, with beautiful sandstone retaining walls providing a timeless foundation for a creative upgrade. The yard is fully fenced, offering space for kids and pets to play on the lawn, as well as lots of room for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the peaceful, leafy surrounds.
Set in the foothills of Mount Ainslie in one of the Inner North’s most sought-after suburbs, this home is just a short stroll to nature trails, the award-winning Ainslie IGA, and the vibrant Edgar’s Inn-perfect for a morning coffee, a sophisticated dinner, or live entertainment. A selection of quality public and private schools are within walking distance, while Dickson shops, dining, and the city are just minutes away, offering the ideal blend of tranquillity and convenience.
