Governor Place - Executive Central Apartment in the heart of Canberra

Spacious 1 bedroom apartment available in the central and vibrant suburb of Barton. The apartment, which is part of the Governor Place complex, was the display apartment for the complex and features views of Red Hill from the living room and Parliament House from the bedroom.

The apartment was built 2 years ago and is very warm throughout winter and stays cool throughout summer. Lake Burley Griffin is on your doorstep as well as many of Canberra's iconic landmarks: Parliament house, old parliament house and the popular Kingston foreshore.

Key features:
* Recently built complex
* Communal garden/BBQ area
* Lake Burley Griffin approx 2 mins walk away
* Cafes, restaurants and local grocery store next to apartment
* Secure underground car parking
* Central location in business district
* The best of both worlds: Bustling during business hours and a very quiet and peaceful location
* Close to Parliament House, Old parliament house and Kingston Foreshore
* Reverse cycle heating/air conditioning

Other things to note:
The apartment is fitted with a dehumidifier. Please note that running this during the winter months is appreciated to prevent condensation from occurring on the windows. Instructions on running it are provided with the welcome pack for guests.

Property was fine.
The neighborhood was nice, and had a few amenities within walking distance. Check in was difficult as the video sent didn't work, and took a bit to reach the owner. Laundry was left in dryer and washer and while we went ahead and completed washing and folding - received no response from the owner. Other than that, a straight forward rental. Nothing special but served the purpoose.
