Several windows run along the northern wall to ensure the living domain is always basking in natural light, with the cooling convenience of the coastal breeze on hand in Summer.

With 103sqm on title and further enhanced by an undercover car space and storage space, this exceptional apartment is perfect for the astute investor, first home buyer or downsizer looking to claim their piece of beachside bliss.
