Set on the top floor of a tightly held block of just six, this is the kind of two-bedroom apartment that genuinely feels like a home. No one above you, leafy treetops through the windows, and the sort of quiet you rarely find this close to everything Ascot has going for it.
Being up top has its perks. The front balcony catches the north-easterly breeze, and up here you get the best of it, along with the light and the privacy that only a top-floor position gives you. The living room opens straight onto that full-length covered balcony, longer than the room itself, so your morning coffee and your Friday evening wind-down both have a home. Air-conditioning and ceiling fans keep things comfortable through every Brisbane season, and the tiled open-plan living and dining are easy to look after.
The kitchen sits at the centre of it all, with a second balcony off the dining for a few herb pots or a quiet cuppa in the sun. Both bedrooms are proper doubles with built-in robes and their own leafy outlook, and the main enjoys a private ensuite. The main bathroom keeps the bathtub, a small luxury you appreciate more with every passing year. Both bathrooms are tidy and comfortable to use now, with plenty of scope to add your own stamp down the track. Two bathrooms in a unit like this is genuinely rare, and it is the kind of thing you only notice once you have lived without it.
There is a remote lock-up garage with room to spare for the bikes, the gear and the bits that never fit anywhere else, plus a separate internal laundry so nothing eats into your living space. The whole complex is secure and set back from the street, with a gated entry and intercom access.
