8/15 Fitzroy Street, Forrest, ACT 2603

Positioned in one of Canberra's most tightly held blue-chip precincts, this single level, two-bedroom residence offers an exceptional walk-to-everything lifestyle. Stroll approximately 900m to the vibrant Manuka Shops for cafés, restaurants, boutiques and everyday conveniences, around 1km to the village atmosphere of Green Square in Kingston, and approximately 1.5km to the waterfront dining and café scene of Kingston Foreshore. The much-loved Old Bus Depot Markets are also close by (approx. 2km) for weekend produce, artisan shopping and local culture as are the Fyshwick Fresh Food Markets.

Beyond the cafés and culture, the everyday amenity here is outstanding. Walk to Manuka Pool for summer laps, enjoy nearby green spaces/parks including Telopea Park, and access Lake Burley Griffin's walking and cycling trails just 1.5km from your front door. Families will appreciate being less than 100m from Telopea Park School, with Forrest Primary School approximately 600m away, while the proximity to Parliament House adds another layer of prestige and convenience.

Whether you're a professional seeking a walkable Inner South base, a downsizer wanting a lock and leave lifestyle, or an investor drawn to enduring demand in a premium location, this address offers convenience, long-term appeal and a leave-the-car-at-home lifestyle few Canberra locations can rival.
