Occupying an enviable north-facing, top-floor position, this architecturally designed apartment delivers the space, privacy and sophistication of penthouse living. Enjoying a direct outlook towards Parliament House, the residence feels wonderfully secluded, offering a sense of peace and privacy that is increasingly difficult to find in apartment living. Beautifully presented and maintained, the home is filled with natural light, with impressive floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows and three-metre ceilings further enhancing its sense of space and openness.
Offering approximately 115sqm of internal living space, the thoughtfully designed floorplan features expansive open-plan living and dining areas, complemented by a beautifully appointed kitchen with quality Miele appliances, including a gas cooktop and oven. A feature gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting focal point, with the capacity to comfortably heat the entire apartment, adding both atmosphere and practicality.
The living area extends effortlessly onto a large, private balcony, providing an ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing and enjoying the outlook. With an established irrigation system and ample room for outdoor furniture, the balcony offers a wonderful extension of the indoor living space. Importantly, direct balcony access is also provided from both bedrooms, creating an additional sense of openness and connection to the outdoors.
Accommodation comprises two generously proportioned bedrooms, with the exceptionally spacious main bedroom offering an impressive private retreat. Complete with direct balcony access, a walk-through wardrobe and extensive built-in cabinetry, it is further complemented by a large private ensuite featuring a shower and toilet. The second bedroom is also well proportioned, with built-in wardrobes and balcony access, while a beautifully appointed main bathroom with bathtub services the remainder of the apartment.
Additional features have been carefully considered to ensure everyday comfort and convenience. Ducted heating and cooling, blackout blinds, upgraded electricals and a generous separate laundry with Miele washing machine and dryer provide excellent practicality. A built-in study offers an ideal work-from-home space, while additional storage is conveniently positioned near the entry.
Secure parking is another significant advantage, with two side-by-side allocated car spaces within the secure complex, a substantial separate storage cage and the added benefit of electric vehicle charging. Intercom access provides further security and peace of mind.
