Effortless, elegant and freshly renewed, this two-bedroom residence at 5/10 Ovens Street delivers the quintessential Inner-South lifestyle without the upkeep. Positioned perfectly between Manuka and Kingston, you will be moments from morning coffee, boutique shopping, destination dining, and an easy stroll to Manuka Oval and the cosmopolitan Kingston Foreshore.
Inside, the home has just undergone a thoughtful and cohesive update. Untouched since completion, it now features a soft, contemporary palette, brand-new carpet in the living space and both bedrooms, fresh paint throughout, upgraded lighting and electrical, and luxury sheer curtains that add warmth and privacy. Year-round comfort is assured by a new reverse-cycle air-conditioning system, while the brand-new washing machine and dryer keep the practicalities simple.
The floor plan is both intelligent and exceedingly functional. The main bedroom boasts an ensuite, walk-in-robe and a large built-in robe for additional storage. The second bedroom is served by a built-in-robe, the main bathroom with corner spa-bath, plus a separate toilet — ideal for guests, an executive housemate, or the flexibility to work from home without compromising amenity. An open-plan living and dining zone flows to a private balcony for relaxed entertaining, while the secure single lock-up garage underscores the home’s lock-and-leave appeal.
From this address, life is uncomplicated. Excellent bus connections put Civic and the Parliamentary Triangle within easy reach, while key arterials streamline the commute. On weekends, stroll to the Foreshore for lunch by the water, catch a game at Manuka Oval, or browse the boutiques in Kingston and Manuka — all without starting the car.
For the owner-occupier, this is a polished sanctuary in a blue-chip position. For the investor, a high-demand configuration in Canberra’s most perennially sought-after pocket, with the finish and freshness that attracts discerning tenants.
