The chance to buy a home in this quiet cul-de-sac only pops up once in a blue moon, but when a new family moves in, it’s usually for “the long haul”.
Butler Place in Campbell is at the city end of the blue-chip suburb, in walking distance to Lake Burley Griffin, the Canberra CBD and good schools.

Samantha Granter, of Belle Property, Kingston, said the five-bedroom home at number 3 is a “perfect example of classic Campbell real estate”, built in 1966.
“It’s in a cul-de-sac of only seven homes and all have [recently] transacted, bar one. It sounds like they’re all going to be in it for the long haul; a second generation settling in,” Ms Granter said.
“Butler Place is tightly held and has a community feel. This is a very attractive house from the street with a pretty unique brick facade.
“The size of the home and the rear gazebo pergola are also appealing aspects.”
Modern updates have improved the functionality of the charming mid-century interior, including a renovated kitchen with stone benchtops, stainless-steel appliances, a dishwasher and ample storage space.
Of the five bedrooms, two have charming bay window seats and all have built-in robes.
The generous layout also includes separate lounge, dining and family rooms, an enclosed sunroom, two bathrooms and a front veranda.
A large backyard deck and pergola elevates the outdoor entertaining capability, with plenty of established gardens and lawns to enjoy on the 994sqm block.
Other features include a double carport with internal access, ducted heating and cooling and a storage cellar.
No. 3 Butler Place will go to auction on Saturday 22 August at 11am.
