#soldbyholly $565,000

A sweeping open plan living, dining, kitchen flows onto an expansive balcony, capturing elevated views of building scapes, blue sky and Mt Ainslie; a rare find in a one bedroom inner city apartment. A wall of glazing welcomes daylight and glorious sunrises over the mountains onto this light filled oasis.

Sitting above the bustling public realm of Lonsdale St, is this one-bedroom sanctuary. Located in the Ori building, a sought after boutique development, known for its balanced, open floor plans that flow to extra-large balconies. With its distinctive origami folds, and bare industrial materials, Ori is an idyllic example of cutting edge urban architecture with a nod to Braddon's distinct balance of old and new.

Ground floor entry is via a cool plaza with soaring ceiling voids a mix of high end retail and hospitality experiences. Entering the apartment you are welcomed by a generous foyer/office nook including coat hooks, ample built in storage and a European laundry.

A continuous thread of organic materials - stone kitchen benchtops, and feature mosaic bathroom tiling - lend a timeless elegance to the space. High ceilings contribute to the bright, airy vibe while warm timber accents are woven together with crisp whites. Soothing and minimal, the whole apartment is imbued with luxury, from the relaxing bathtub to the luxe stainless steel appliances within the sleek kitchen.

The master bedroom with its banks of mirrored robes opens to the east via a folding wall of plantation shutters. This innovative feature connects the bedroom with the social spaces, drawing in light and aspect, taking full advantage of the stunning panoramic blue sky views. Think coffee in bed, a precious weekend lingering, bathed in sunshine…glass sliders flung open to welcome breezes.

Slip out for a morning brew at Barrio Collective, lunch with friends at Elemental Café after yoga, take home artisan ceramics from Timber and Tailor, fill your space with gorgeous blooms from Moxom and Whitney…it's all at your doorstep. A famous mix of old and new informs a thriving, eclectic urban culture - a haven for expressive cafes, restaurants, bars, and boutiques. Just a few steps from Haig Park, this dynamic, central locale also places you within walking distance to the CBD, ANU, and the New Acton precinct. Dickson, Ainslie and O'Connor shops are all close to hand. Throw in ample green spaces, walking and biking trails, Mt Ainslie reserve, and you have an enviable city/village mix. The home is also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
