75/44 Macquarie Street, Barton, Inner South

Perched on the top floor, this delightful property offers a myriad of views including Red Hill, Parliament House, some of the lake, and the heritage listed hotel Kurrajong.

With a generous 60m2 design plus large 19m2 balcony, and with no wasted space, this home will prove easy to furnish and spacious to live and entertain in alike.

Barton was established in 1922 named after our first Prime Minister Sir Edmund Barton, and houses some of Canberra's most iconic buildings including the heritage-listed Brassey and Kurrajong Hotels, and the Edmund Barton Building. Today, Barton also hosts some of Canberra's most popular and modern lifestyle attractions such as the Governor Place precinct including the Barton Grocer and the ever-popular Realm Precinct featuring Ostani and Leyla bars, and Chairman & Yip Restaurant.

Governor Place is located close to Bowen Park and Lake Burley Griffin; take a walk-through Telopea Park or the National Rose Gardens of Old Parliament House, see what's on at the National Gallery of Australia, catch up with friends at the Kingston Foreshore or newly revamped cafes in Kingston's Green Square. Treat yourself to some retail therapy in the famous Manuka boutiques or pampering at the local HALE Spa, and of course being in-area for some of Canberra's best schools available within the Inner South.
