Up on the 12th floor of Infinity Towers, the light at 319/1 Anthony Rolfe Avenue becomes part of the apartment itself. From the living room to the balcony, the view across to Yerrabi Pond gives a one-bedroom apartment a sense of openness that can be difficult to find.
Inside, the layout keeps things uncomplicated.
The kitchen sits open to the living and dining area, with stone benchtops, electric cooking, dishwasher, and enough workspace for actual cooking. From here, the living room continues straight onto the northeast-facing balcony, so the outlook isn't something reserved for when you step outside.
The bedroom is well separated with a built-in robe, while the bathroom includes floor-to-ceiling tiling and a European laundry off to the side. Reverse cycle heating and cooling take care of Canberra's seasons, and there's secure basement parking with a storage cage for everything you don't particularly want living upstairs with you.
Then, of course, there's Infinity.
It's one of Gungahlin's most recognisable apartment buildings for a reason. The 25-metre infinity pool is the obvious showstopper, particularly with its outlook across the district, but residents also have access to a gym, BBQ areas, and outdoor spaces without having to leave the complex.
The location gives you two very different versions of Gungahlin within a few minutes of your front door.
Walk one way, and you're at Yerrabi Pond, with parkland, walking and cycling paths, and somewhere to escape the town centre for a while. Walk the other and you're amongst the supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, light rail, and everything else that makes living centrally genuinely convenient.
For a first-home buyer, it's an easy way to step into the market without giving up the lifestyle.
For an investor, it's a one-bedroom apartment in a location and complex that Gungahlin renters already know.
And for either, that 12th-floor outlook is a pretty good thing to come home to.
