Elegant and plentiful spring to mind…the home balanced, simple, open to views and light. This lovely one-bedder spills to a deep balcony that takes in a sweeping panorama of treetops and mountains. A study nook takes care of creating from home and the bedroom window frames the landscape like a painting. It is a calming haven despite the fabulous locale and the well-connected lifestyle. Think stepping out to a world of great coffee, drink, food, shopping and community.
The Valonia building rises above Dooring Street with Art Deco grace - layered glass balconies, distinctive curves and portal windows. Pretty gardens, well-tended lawns, rows of stunning tree ferns deliver a mini-oasis in the middle of the metropolis. There is gymnasium and a shared barbecue area for fostering community and spending time outdoors with family and friends. And it is a leafy stroll to the Lonsdale hub, the CBD, Haig Park and the walking trails of Mt Ainslie.
Housed on the eighth floor the home enjoys an elevated privacy that allows you to embrace indoor/outdoor living freely. Glass sliders can be flung open to light and air, while soft neutral tones allow the gorgeous views to take centre stage. A clever study nook upon entry, fitted with seamless fixed cabinetry, is the perfect use of space for storage and working quietly from home. And there is the convenience of a European laundry, effortlessly tucked away.
The openly conversational plan makes life and entertaining relaxed yet dynamically informed by the ever-changing skyline. The kitchen sits back, serving up dark worktops, ample cabinetry in crisp white and quality appliances. Think daily rituals, coffee on the balcony, plating take-out from your favourite local restaurant or sharing a drink or two with friends. Think a feeling of possibility, of stepping out to greet all the potential of the city by day or night.
The bedroom is serene and invitational with a big window that captures lovely views. There is a built-in-robe for seamless storage and an adjacent bathroom - simply appointed in a mix of white and soft blue.
Braddon is famous for its unique blend of cool, independent businesses housed within old industrial buildings and sleek modern builds.
