Overview

Ground floor. Pet-friendly. Built-in study big enough for actual thoughts. A short stroll to Kingston or the Fyshwick markets. This one’s not playing hard to get.

Most apartments force you to peer into someone else’s life (or worse, let them peer into yours). This one politely declines. It’s that rare ground-floor unicorn with a proper 25sqm courtyard, high ceilings, timber floors, and the kind of privacy that makes you forget you’re in an apartment block. No shared hotel-style lobby. No awkward lift chats. Just you, the courtyard, and the quiet satisfaction of not living in a vertical sardine tin. It’s the easy lock-up-and-leave lifestyle with enough space to actually live in. Move in, put the kettle on, and enjoy the fact that convenience is already built in within walking distance. The numbers (approx): • Living: 52sqm • Courtyard: 25sqm • Rates: TBC • Land tax (if rented): TBC • Strata (inc. sinking fund): • Current tenancy: $530 pw and tenant would like to stay for investor buyer • Settlement: Live-in buyers can have vacant possession with a 60-day settlement What’s inside: • A large built-in study/desk (because “work from the couch” has its limits) • Spacious courtyard • High ceilings that make the place feel bigger than it has any right to • Timber floors • Open-plan living that actually flows • Floor-to-ceiling windows • Fully tiled bathroom with a semi-frameless shower screen • Stone benchtops • Stainless steel appliances • Ducted reverse-cycle heating & cooling • Spacious bedroom with floor-to-ceiling mirrored robes The Archer extras: Intercom entry, well-maintained common areas, an intimate ground-floor lobby shared with just two other units, and a restricted-access basement car space complete with storage cage. No drama. No excess pools or gyms. Location flex (Google Maps distances): • Opposite St Clare’s and St Edmund’s Colleges • 350m to bus stops on Wentworth Ave • 600m to dog-friendly Kingston Oval • 850m to Fyshwick markets • 1km to Kingston shops, cafes, bars & Green Square • 1.1km to Kingston Foreshore • 1.4km to Manuka Private. Courtyard-blessed. Ridiculously convenient. The kind of apartment that makes you wonder why more of them aren’t like this.
