Offering a winning combination of spaciousness, city views, location and convenience, this California-style corner apartment in a boutique complex of only six occupies an elevated position in a sought-after, tranquil city fringe area. The result is the perfect symbiosis of urban dynamics. Low Body Corporate fees add additional allure for investors as well as first-time buyers.
Stepping through the front door there is an immediate sense of space and size. Large picture windows frame fabulous city skyline views while taking full advantage of northern and eastern exposures that flood the interior with natural light and prevailing breezes.
The addition of a study annexe is a much-appreciated feature in the combined living/dining area which opens to a good-sized, covered balcony. This is the perfect spot to savour a morning coffee whilst relishing the stunning vistas, or relax with friends while enjoying an aperitif at the end of the day, watching as the city skyline lights up.
The integrated modern kitchen is offset by on-trend dark timber cabinetry and is complete with stainless steel Ariston dishwasher, Westinghouse oven and cooktop and an open servery bar. The two bedrooms are extremely generous and each shares the updated bathroom with excellent storage for toiletries.
Other features include ceiling fans, tiles in the kitchen and on the balcony, carpet and blackout blinds that create a restful environment both day and night. A lock up garage with undercroft storage space has the added advantage of undercover access to your apartment proving more than convenient on rainy days.
