Overview

The Magnificent 'Malabar'

Superb location and orientation are keys to your new urban lifestyle at the gateway to Dickson's dynamic 'Chinatown' dining, shopping and entertainment district. 'Malabar' meaning city of hills, is a conveniently located mixed-use development built around a large central landscaped podium, positioned to take in vistas of Mount Majura, Mount Ainslie, Black Mountain and distant ranges. The coveted work of Canberra Architects Ring and Associates in collaboration with Dezignteam have delivered functional contemporary living at its best in a prized location. Inspiring and alluring, a bright executive Level 3 apartment with completely covered full length North-facing balcony taking in leafy district views, with the benefit of day-long natural light streaming to living areas and master suite. Interiors sparkle like diamonds with their thoughtful floor plan, a multitude of clever storage options, guaranteed to minimise clutter. Generously sized segregated bedrooms, a neat study alcove and a concealed practical European laundry are designed to maximise living area. Elegance and style abound with the ultimate gleaming white galley kitchen's timeless finishes and quality inclusions of a 'waterfall end' stone bench top. You'll cook like a Master Chef with pristine stainless steel Bosch cooking appliances, built-in microwave, integrated dishwasher drawers, double sink with extendable tap plus a plethora of storage with soft-close cabinetry. Creature comforts continue with an indulgent master bedroom with dual built-in robes, a luxe ensuite with deep bathtub, dual basins and a wall of mirror cabinets. Add cost effective sustainable central ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning and instantaneous hot water system, LED down lights, NBN internet connection and double-glazing. Eat, play and live in one fabulously central location. It's where you want to be. For entertaining, recreation and leisure, on Level 5 you'll enjoy a sophisticated cinema room, expansive rooftop terrace BBQ areas, a solar heated pool, a well equipped gymnasium, panoramic views and productive communal raised organic garden beds on podium Level 1. You'll be enviously spoiled for choice. Enjoy Summer evening breezes on your balcony taking in the vibe and buzz below, or duck in to the Tak Kee Roast Inn, a Canberra institution serving fine Cantonese fare, or to any of the iconic Dickson restaurants on offer. Walk to Woolworth and Coles supermarkets. The Light Rail stop and bus interchange across the street will quickly take you to Braddon, the City or cosmpolitan Gungahlin Town Centre. With appeal as wide as its passageways plus two elevators and safety of restricted access, the apartment is well suited to owner occupiers, senior buyers relocating with their pets. Investors will appreciate the high yield rental returns in the complex.
