71 Burn Street, Downer
Bright, beautiful, and featuring an impeccable architectural design, 71 Burn Street in Downer offers a truly fantastic opportunity to own a unique, sustainable, and character-filled property.
Agent Nic Salter-Harding describes the home as a fusion between a classic Canberran ex-government style and a modern European aesthetic.
“For me, my favourite part of the home is the front extension with the lounge room overlooked by the loft. This is such a great place to bring people together around the fireplace and has exceptional natural light throughout as well. It’s also very much a three-dimensional space, with astonishingly high raked ceilings and that loft-style home office or fourth bedroom,” says Mr Salter-Harding.
“The fact is it has been transformed with long-term living in mind. The owners hadn’t intended on selling when they did the work here, and the fact that this was all done for them shows in the quality and attention to detail. It’s not your typical cookie-cutter modernisation of a house.
“You can see the original footprint of the house and where it has subsequently grown, and everything old and new seems to fit right in here. The design is heavily Scandinavian inspired, with its solar passivity, high raked ceilings, double glazed tilt and turn windows. This has also contributed to the house having an impressive 5.5-star energy rating.”
The superbly located suburb of Downer takes advantage of the Inner North lifestyle and is just a stone’s throw from the revived Downer Village and rapidly growing Dickson precinct. Parks and playgrounds are only a short stroll away, along with quality schools, unique cafés, and an abundance of green spaces.
