108/77 Northbourne Avenue, Turner, ACT 2612

Imagine being able to walk everywhere from home… when your address is 77 Northbourne Avenue, walking is your new reality and 'The Avenue' is the closest residential development in Turner to the City. You are in close proximity to the Canberra Centre, North Quarter, Braddon's café and food district, the light rail, Civic bus interchange, the ANU, Acton Precinct & much more. The location is so good that you can even rent out the car space for around $70/week = $3,640/yr - what could you do with that extra cash every year?

Being vacant, it's perfect for live in owners wanting to move in quickly while also being ideal for attracting tenants and associated strong rental yields and future capital if you are an investor - you can even select your own tenant in the timeframe between exchange and settlement so you have no vacancy costs. 

The unit has new LED downlighting throughout. The bedroom includes an entire wall of sliding door, mirrored built in robes and an outlook towards Black Mountain which is also afforded from the living area. The modern, full-size kitchen has stone bench tops, stainless steel appliances and ample storage, even a walk-in pantry. Beautifully presented you can just move in straight away (even prior to settlement) if you are in a hurry. 

'The Avenue' development has dual, secure lift access from the basement and ground level. Residents also have the luxury of 2 swimming pools and BBQ facilities in the landscaped internal courtyard, a great spot for a weekend get together with family and friends.
