Nestled in the heart of Canberra’s vibrant Inner South, in this stylish apartment right in the popular precinct of Kingston and its picturesque foreshore on Lake Burley Griffin. The neighbourhood is a compelling blend of old and new—heritage‑rich streets and leafy homes of “old” Kingston transition smoothly into the shimmering waterfront apartments and busy café‑lined promenades of the foreshore.
Just steps away you`ll find yourself strolling along the lakeside boardwalk, with scenic views and open water creating a calm escape from the urban buzz. Once an industrial waterfront, this area has been thoughtfully transformed into a hub of dining, walking trails, and relaxed waterside living. A short walk brings you to the lively Kingston Shops precinct—Kennedy and Giles Streets—where boutique cafés, top‑rated restaurants, and specialty stores mingle in a warm, friendly village‑style setting.
For guests staying in this apartment, this means you’re perfectly positioned: enjoy morning coffee just around the corner, wander home after dinner with a glass of wine, or head out for an easy lakeside walk at sunset. At the same time you’re only minutes from Canberra’s key cultural and government hubs, giving you superb convenience without sacrificing the relaxed, local feel. Whether you’re here for a weekend escape, exploring the capital, or staying a little longer, this Kingston location offers a distinctive mix of urban ease and lakeside calm.
Getting around this apartment on Dawes Street, Kingston, is simple and convenient. The neighbourhood is very walkable, with nearby bus stops along Wentworth Avenue and Eyre Street providing easy access to major routes across Canberra. From these stops, you can reach the city centre, Woden, and the lakeside foreshore precinct in just a few minutes.
For those who prefer walking or cycling, the area is perfectly suited for exploring on foot or by bike. Scenic paths along Lake Burley Griffin are just a short stroll away, offering pleasant lakeside walks or rides. The Kingston Shops precinct and local cafés are also within easy walking distance, making daily errands or dining trips effortless.
If guests plan to drive, the neighbourhood has a well-laid-out road network with straightforward access to the city and surrounding suburbs. Parking within the SALT complex may have limitations, so it’s important to note the difference between guest and resident parking, and to follow local street parking rules.
For visitors using public transport, buses are frequent and reliable, and stops are located just a few minutes’ walk from the apartment. The area is well connected, safe, and convenient, making it easy to explore Canberra while staying in a lively yet relaxed neighbourhood.
