Overview

This architecturally designed townhouse at 71 Forbes Street, Turner, represents a brilliant fusion of modern design and convenient inner-north living. Nestled within the award-winning Tempus development, known locally as the Copperstones, this residence stands out as one of the larger four-bedroom terraces, uniquely positioned in the distinctive curved section of Forbes Street. This ensures not only privacy but an elegant, established outlook.

The home’s thoughtful layout spans approximately 200 square metres of living space across four split levels, arranged around a central void and staircase that is illuminated by a skylight, bringing natural light deep into the interior. This design allows each living space to enjoy its own distinct ambiance and views, including stunning outlooks towards city towers, Black Mountain, and the surrounding hills.

Quality finishes abound, with polished concrete floors featuring in-slab hydronic heating, timber-tread stairs on a supportive steel spine, and floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows that assure comfort and energy efficiency. The designer kitchen showcases timber and stone materials complemented by premium, integrated appliances, serving as an inviting hub for both daily living and entertaining.

Bathrooms are crafted with stone finishes, backlit mirrors, floating vanities, and premium tapware, delivering a refined sense of luxury. The private, landscaped courtyard, approximately 120 square metres in size, provides a tranquil outdoor retreat with elegant features such as a Japanese maple over raked gravel, perfect for quiet moments or social gatherings in a serene setting.

Practicality is well addressed with secure double garage parking incorporating storage space, plus an additional allocated gated parking space. The garage benefits from natural light and offers the potential for conversion to expanded living areas if desired.

This property will particularly appeal to professionals or downsizers seeking a home that combines architectural distinction, generous space, and the vibrant inner-north lifestyle. It promises ease of access to the Canberra CBD, the ANU, and the dynamic Braddon precinct with its cafes and bars, alongside proximity to green spaces like Haig Park and the light rail corridor.

Presenting as virtually new and maintaining a high Energy Efficiency Rating of 7.0, this townhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a standout contemporary home in one of Canberra’s most tightly held, high-value locales.
