Positioned on the seventh floor of the Cirrus complex, 711/161 Emu Bank offers low-maintenance living in one of Belconnen's most convenient waterfront settings. Purchased as an investment, the owner couldn't help but choose an apartment with a northerly aspect and uninterrupted views across Lake Ginninderra. The apartment combines natural light, elevated outlooks, and a well-designed layout to create a home that feels both comfortable and refined.
Inside, the open plan living space is bright and welcoming, flowing directly to a generous balcony that makes the most of the panoramic lake view. Whether it is a quiet morning coffee, an easy evening at home, or simply enjoying the outlook from above, the apartment offers a lifestyle centred around ease, outlook, and everyday convenience, all while being set in the heart of Belconnen with excellent access to the surrounding amenity of the town centre and waterfront precinct.
THE HOME
Thoughtfully designed and finished to a high standard, the apartment offers a practical one-bedroom layout complemented by quality inclusions throughout. Floor-to-ceiling double-glazed sliding doors draw natural light into the living space and connects seamlessly to the balcony, enhancing both the sense of space and indoor-outdoor flow.
The galley style kitchen is finished with stone benchtops, timber-grained joinery, an under-mount sink, SMEG cooktop and oven and dishwasher, creating a space that is both functional and visually refined. The bedroom includes fresh carpet and two built-in robes , while the bathroom continues the apartment's modern design with a freestanding vanity, large shower and toilet.
Additional features in the home include split-system heating and cooling, a European style laundry with a Fisher & Paykel dryer. The allocated car space is positioned at the end of the row and is accompanied by a sizable lockable storage cage, adding further practicality to the home. Residents of the Cirrus complex also enjoy access to luxury communal facilities including an indoor pool and fully equipped gym.
