Overview

Views, Light and Lifestyle in the Heart of Coombs

Set on the first floor of the boutique Orion complex, this light-filled two-bedroom apartment offers unbeatable views, smart design, and a lifestyle defined by nature, convenience and easy living. With uninterrupted outlooks over the National Arboretum and Black Mountain, you'll enjoy a sense of calm and connection that's hard to find in apartment living. Inside, the east-facing layout has been thoughtfully designed to maximise space, light and privacy. Full-height glass sliders draw in natural light and open to a generous balcony-your own elevated outdoor retreat with a front-row seat to sunsets over the treetops. The modern kitchen includes a Haier induction cooktop and oven, a full pantry, and generous bench space, while the open-plan living and dining area flows effortlessly out to the balcony and is kept comfortable year-round with a reverse-cycle split system. Both bedrooms are well-separated and offer direct access to the balcony-ideal for indoor-outdoor living. Each includes a built-in robe and ceiling fan, while one bedroom also features its own reverse-cycle split system for personalised comfort. The central bathroom is sleek and well-appointed with a walk-in shower and neutral finishes, and a European-style laundry is neatly tucked away. NBN Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) keeps everything connected, and there's also a single allocated carport with a secure lockable storage cage. Getting around from here is effortless. With quick access to major arterial roads, you're just 15 minutes to the City, 12 minutes to Belconnen, and 10 minutes to Woden. Whether it's the daily commute, dinner plans, or catching up with friends across town, everything is within easy reach-making this one of Molonglo's most connected and convenient addresses. Surrounded by parkland, walking trails and local amenities, the apartment also offers a lifestyle that's both peaceful and practical.
