36 Waratah Street, O'Connor ACT 2602

New build | 5 bed, 4 bath | Inner North enclave | Top school catchments This property presents a competitively strong offering due to its rare configuration as a new, architect-specified house in a prime Inner North location. The combination of five bedrooms and four full bathrooms across two levels, with premium Miele appliances and double-glazing, creates a low-maintenance, high-amenity proposition ideally suited for a large professional family seeking immediate occupancy and priority access to highly-regarded government schools. Its scale and finish serve this demographic precisely. Decision hinges on the premium for new construction within a settled suburb, where the unimproved land value constitutes a significant portion of the total estimated value. This limits short-term capital growth relative to renovation opportunities, but secures a decade of repair cost avoidance. The property should be acquired for long-term occupation to amortise its quality; it is not a strategic rental, given the high annual land tax liability. Proceed only if the school catchments and move-in condition are paramount.
