36 Waratah Street, O'Connor ACT 2602

Newly built architect-designed O’Connor family home | 5 bed, 4 bath premium finish | 7.0 EER with double glazing | Prime Inner North school catchment position This property presents a rare buying opportunity in a tightly held O’Connor pocket, offering a turnkey executive residence with genuine competitive edge. The 339 square metre floorplan across five bedrooms and multiple living zones targets the family buyer seeking space without compromising on modern efficiency. The 7.0 EER rating with double glazing throughout positions this house ahead of most Inner North stock, reducing ongoing energy costs and improving comfort. The school catchment proximity to Lyneham Primary and High School within walking distance is a strong demand driver for family purchasers. This property serves best the buyer who values contemporary design, low-maintenance living, and immediate occupation in a blue-chip location. The primary risk is price sensitivity given the auction format and the property’s position as a newly built house in a suburb where established homes dominate. The 663 square metre block is modest for the house size, limiting future extension potential and outdoor amenity. The concurrent rental listing suggests possible vendor flexibility or dual-strategy marketing, which may create negotiation opportunity for a cash-ready buyer. The high council rates and land tax figures indicate ongoing holding costs that should be factored into any offer strategy. The unimproved value of $1,069,000 provides a floor for land component assessment, but final value will depend on auction day competition among the executive family buyer pool.
