Lifestyle, Light and Location
Occupying a delightful upper-level position within a charming and established corner complex of just eight residences, this comfortable and light-filled 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment encourages easy living for the likes of university students, medical workers or those simply wanting something a little more "lock-up and leave" in the most pleasant of riverside locations, metres from the stunning University of Western Australia grounds.
Amidst the leafiness, birdsong and overall serenity, you are welcomed inside by a spacious and carpeted open-plan living and dining area with split-system air-conditioning, large windows and access out on to a generous north-facing balcony that takes in lovely tree-lined views at the very same time. It is all overlooked by a tiled and functional kitchen upon entry - cleverly updated over time to include double sinks, tiled splashbacks, pantry storage, a microwave recess, an integrated stainless-steel range hood, a Devanti ceramic/electric cooktop, a Bosch under-bench oven and a white dishwasher of the same brand.
The sleeping quarters are separate and are headlined by a huge carpeted master bedroom with built-in wardrobes and both north-facing and west-facing treetop aspects, as well as magical sunsets come the evening. The carpeted and double-sized north-facing second bedroom also boasts a picture-perfect window outlook to wake up to, sitting opposite a stylish bathroom/laundry wet area with a shower, powder vanity, under-bench storage, a separate wash trough and extra cupboard space. A separate toilet and ample full-height built-in hallway linen storage complete the picture.
Absolutely everything is walking distance away from here, whether it be grabbing your groceries at Broadway Fair Shopping Centre (also home to the local IGA supermarket and popular Varsity Nedlands around the corner), embracing the café and restaurant lifestyle along Broadway or strolling to the lush Matilda Bay Reserve - home to the Matilda Bay Restaurant - and gazing out to the river for hours on end after sunrise, the convenience of this exceptional setting should not be underestimated. What a spot!
