Prime location selected for exciting new boutique apartments

Kingston – or technically Griffith in this instance – is prime real estate in Canberra, and it’s not often that opportunities arise to buy a brand-new apartment, especially of the calibre set for the new Walter & Whitley development on Leichardt Street.

Across two buildings, Walter & Whitley sees a total of 67 one, two and three-bedroom apartments come to market through Morris Property Group – a developer renowned across Canberra.

Here, you can enjoy the best of both worlds, where home is a retreat among the lush tranquillity of suburban life, yet the vibrancy of Kingston is just a short stroll away.

“Walter & Whitley is a result of feedback we received from other projects in the area,” says Morris Property Group real estate director Travis Welsh.

“People are drawn to the location, the beautiful tree-lined streets, the heritage buildings, the brickwork and the rich history of the area, which we, as a developer, have been part of.”

Welsh says this development has been designed for more mature owner occupiers; buyers who seek a unique boutique offering but who don’t want the fast pace of life in high-density areas such as the city.

“Walter & Whitley has the appeal of being suburban,” he says, “It’s slower, and more relaxed in a nice tranquil setting.

“It’s far enough out of the hustle and bustle but still close to enjoy amenity.

“I like to say that here, you can get a good night’s sleep. You can have your window open in the evening and get a nice fresh breeze, without the risk of being woken by the noise, and then can walk your dog in the morning down to the first-class cafes, shops and restaurants that Kingston has to offer.

“It manages to deliver on both of these things.”

When it comes to the homes themselves, there are options for everyone, crafted to optimise space with functional floor plans and added conveniences to enhance the apartments’ liveability.

The inclusions range from high-quality European appliances to hybrid timber floors as standard.

“The homes are high quality and the floor plans are very efficient and generous,” Welsh says.

“We also have a range of what we call ‘ground dwellers’, which are courtyard apartments that offer large ground-floor spaces with courtyards that provide loads of room for the dog to run around or for kids to ride their bike.”

Colours, textures and fixtures have been carefully chosen and meticulously designed to strike the perfect balance between luxury and liveability.

There’s a choice of two interior colour palettes, each of which is timeless and luxurious.

“This is one of my favourite developments I’ve done and I’ve been in the industry for some time,” Welsh says.

Expected completion is the fourth quarter of 2026.
