Have you ever longed for the slower times of yesteryear, when the kids swung from the hills hoist and played cricket in the backyard of that quarter acre block, when you enjoyed the sounds of birds in a well-established, and maintained gardens, when you worked 9 to 5 and when life was much simpler?

9 Pelsart Street gives you that opportunity to enter the time warp and experience what it was like to live in Canberra in the 1960s, but with the modern conveniences.

Located in the prestigious inner south of Canberra, this almost untouched 1960’s four-bedroom home is a must-see for all Canberrans and buyers interested in a unique home in such a central and prestigious location.
