Overview

Kingston Living. Right In The Middle Of It.

Some apartments promise the inner south lifestyle. This one delivers it from the front door. Set on the second floor of the prestigious first stage of Kingston Place, this one-bedroom plus study apartment sits 100 metres from the cafés, restaurants and shops that make Kingston one of Canberra's most sought-after addresses. Green Square, Supabarn, Manuka and the Foreshore are all within easy reach. Leave the car. Walk to everything. Inside, the apartment is considered and well resolved. Floor-to-ceiling glazing throughout draws the north-westerly aspect deep into the living spaces, flooding the interiors with natural light across every season. High ceilings with shadow line details, concealed bulkhead pelmets and linear diffusers give the home a quiet architectural quality that lifts it well above the typical apartment finish. The designer kitchen delivers both presence and performance - stone benchtops, Gaggenau appliances and ample storage, positioned to connect seamlessly with the open-plan living and dining zone. The oversized balcony is accessible from both the living area and bedroom, providing genuine outdoor space rather than a token ledge. The bathroom features dual Bagna vanities with Methven tapware. The walk-through robe is impressive in scale. A European fold-away laundry with vanity and dryer completes the package. The north-westerly orientation and floor-to-ceiling glazing contribute directly to the 6-star EER rating - meaning very little energy is needed to heat or cool the apartment year-round. For first home buyers wanting blue-chip Kingston positioning. For downsizers wanting lock-and-leave living in the heart of the inner south. For investors wanting proven rental demand in one of Canberra's tightest precincts.
