$650,000
Beautiful recycled timber floors from Thor's hammer bring warmth to the open and airy interiors, complementing the neutral palette and creating a welcoming feel throughout. This two bedroom apartment combines contemporary design with thoughtful details like the clever office nook and automated blinds throughout, while the open plan living area flows through glass sliders to a deep, elevated balcony, offering plenty of space to enjoy the outdoors and northern aspect.
The Bradfield has a distinctive style, drawing on the architectural character of the old Downer school while introducing a contemporary approach. Designed by AMC Architecture, the building features an interesting mix of shapes, tones and textures. The landscaped old school courtyard now serves as a central gathering space, with communal areas for residents to enjoy. Pedestrian pathways connect the development to the surrounding neighbourhood, making it easy to explore on foot.
The living is arranged in a spacious open plan layout, with the kitchen occupying one corner. Finely grained cabinetry sits alongside light stone benchtops, with induction cooking, ample storage and an externally ducted rangehood adding everyday practicality. The kitchen connects naturally with the dining and lounge areas, while the second floor position offers a lovely sense of openness and privacy. White walls provide a simple backdrop for furniture and artwork, and the generous balcony is ideal for a morning coffee or evening drinks with friends.
The master bedroom opens onto the balcony and has the added convenience of an ensuite bathroom. The walk in robe doubles as a workspace, complete with a bespoke desk and shelving. The second bedroom enjoys a large window and excellent walk in robe. A main bathroom completes the arrangement, with both bathrooms featuring floor to ceiling tiling and a consistent, understated finish.
Positioned in the heart of Downer, the apartment is a short walk from the local shops and Gang Gang Café and Bar, a popular neighbourhood venue known for live music, trivia nights and flea markets. Explore the boutique shops of Braddon, pick up fresh sourdough from Sonoma or enjoy an evening at one of the many restaurants and bars. The Dickson precinct is moments away for shopping, everyday essentials and international cuisine. Nearby green spaces include Downer playing fields, Melba Street Park, Downer Micro Forest and the walking trails of Mt Majura. Schools and public transport, including the light rail, are within walking distance, with the CBD approximately 13 minutes away by car.
