Overview

The City at Your Doorstep

What you see: On level six of a well-known building in the heart of the city, this two-bedroom apartment is a simple, well-sorted package with plenty of natural light and an outlook that keeps going. The kitchen sits neatly in the corner. It has dark stone-look benchtops, timber cabinetry, an electric cooktop and oven, a range hood and a dishwasher, with plenty of room to cook without the space feeling crowded. Carpet runs underfoot through the apartment, and ducted reverse cycle heating and cooling keeps things comfortable whatever Canberra throws at you. The master bedroom is at the far end of the apartment. It has mirrored built-in robes and opens straight onto the balcony, with views back towards Black Mountain Tower. The second bedroom has its own separate access door, which suits a housemate, a guest or a home office. The bathroom is two-way, with a vanity, a shower and bath combination and a toilet. The laundry is separate, with a tub and space for a stacked washer and dryer. Outside, the fully covered balcony looks across the city skyline. Pull-across blinds let you control the light and privacy without giving up the view. What we see: Living in the city without the car. Morning coffee and a walk through Glebe Park, lunch around Petrie Plaza, then a show at the Canberra Theatre Centre or a night out on Lonsdale Street in Braddon. The Canberra Centre is practically your corner store, and the light rail is a short stroll away. On weekends, Commonwealth Park and the lake are an easy walk from your door, and at sunset, Black Mountain Tower lights up from your own balcony. It's a lock-up-and-leave base for first home buyers, investors or anyone who wants the city on their doorstep.
