Completely quiet and secluded at the rear of Bird de la Coeur architects’ 6-star energy rated and award-winning ‘Roi’ complex lies this light and large 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment savouring elevated easterly views. A spacious second-floor setting at the end of the hallway, this stylish single-level home captures streams of soft light throughout a brilliantly designed interior enhanced by split-system heating and cooling, video intercom and a full-width balcony with dual access ideal for undercover alfresco entertaining while taking in the exceptional outlook. Impressive from the outset, the layout is launched by an extensive open-planned space with north-side highlight windows that flows from a Blanco-appointed stone gourmet kitchen to dining and living areas before wide, full-height sliding doors with a retractable insect screen and the wonderful sun-splashed balcony. Central is an immaculate bathroom, while further are 2 great-size, east-facing bedrooms incorporating mirror built-in robes and flyscreens. The second projects onto the balcony and the main with a fabulous ensuite also offers a study nook and direct access outside to enjoy spectacular sunrises with a wake-up coffee. Additionally, this superbly-presented apartment includes a European laundry plus a secure covered car space and a storage cage, along with a residents’ rooftop alfresco area amid landscaped eco-conscious, access-friendly environs.
