Positioned high above the streetscape, this top floor, double storey one bedroom residence delivers a refined Inner North lifestyle with a strong focus on light, outlook and intelligent design. With its elevated eastern aspect and sweeping mountain backdrop, the apartment captures the morning sun and offers a calm, ever changing vista that adds a sense of space well beyond its footprint.
A standout and genuinely rare feature for an apartment is the skylight set above the living area, drawing in natural light from above and giving the space an airy, architectural feel seldom found in unit living. Combined with its double glazed windows and high level position, the result is a living zone that feels bright, open and visually striking throughout the day.
The lower floor is dedicated to open plan living and entertaining, where generous glazing frames the outlook and connects seamlessly to the balcony. Clean architectural lines and contemporary finishes give the interiors a polished edge, while bespoke custom joinery and integrated shelving in the living room add both character and highly practical storage. It is a space that goes well beyond a standard apartment fitout and feels intentionally curated.
At the centre of the home, the kitchen has been specified for both performance and style. Stone benchtops with a waterfall edge, quality Bosch appliances, an integrated dishwasher, built-in microwave and soft close cabinetry combine to create a workspace that is as functional as it is elegant. Every element has been selected to support effortless day to day living and easy entertaining.
Upstairs, the bedroom level functions as a private retreat, well separated from the social spaces below. Generous in scale and filled with natural light, it enjoys the elevated outlook and a peaceful atmosphere. A built-in desk with integrated storage is already incorporated, making working from home or managing daily tasks simple and streamlined. The ensuite bathroom, finished with full height tiling and quality fittings, reinforces the residence's refined, low maintenance appeal. There is also loads of storage with a built-in robe and walk-in robe.
Residents enjoy access to an impressive suite of complex amenities designed to extend your living experience beyond your front door, including a fully equipped gym, indoor heated pool, shared cinema, and communal barbecue and entertaining areas.
Set in the heart of the Dickson precinct, you are moments from restaurants, cafés, grocers and nightlife, with light rail close by for easy access to the City and Gungahlin. It is a location that consistently proves popular for both owner occupiers and investors thanks to its energy, convenience and long term appeal.
This is a residence that pairs architectural interest with everyday comfort, highlighted by rare features such as the living room skylight and custom joinery, delivering an elevated, low maintenance lifestyle in a tightly held Inner North setting.
