8 cosy Canberra homes on sale this winter
As Canberra days continue to get colder and we experience more minus-six degrees mornings, there is an often-overlooked solution to warming your home this winter.
While a portable heater is one way to keep the frost out, there’s nothing like settling by a crackling fireplace with freshly baked biscuits on hand and a warm glass of milk – pure bliss.
So for those on the hunt for a new home, we’ve gathered eight homes that feature either a traditional wood fireplace or a more modern take on the winter warmer in Canberra that will provide an alternative to ever-growing heating bills.
