Sky-high sustainable living atop the iconic nightingale
Perched on the top floor of the award-winning Nightingale Housing Development at 219 Albion Street, this Brunswick apartment offers sustainable, design-led living with the best outlook in the building.
Step inside to an open-plan kitchen and living space, framed by 2.7-metre-high concrete ceilings and warm cork flooring throughout. The kitchen is fitted with timber veneer cabinetry, sleek stainless steel benchtops and premium integrated appliances, including an induction cooktop, electric oven and dishwasher drawers as much a space for cooking as for entertaining. The living area opens onto a large, undercover, west-facing balcony, the standout feature of this apartment. Positioned on the seventh and highest floor, it's a sheltered perch for uninterrupted sunset views over Brunswick, come rain or shine.
Both bedrooms face east, filling the rooms with soft morning light, and each comes with generous built-in robes. The bathroom is fitted with a modern sink, brass fittings and a walk-in shower. All rooms include block-out roller blinds for comfort and control.
As part of the Nightingale model, sustainability is built into every layer of this home. Cross-flow ventilation and ceiling fans keep the apartment naturally cool, while an embedded green electricity network removes gas bills entirely. An airtight building fabric and energy recovery ventilation system minimise heating and cooling loads, contributing to the development's outstanding 8.9 NatHERS rating. Commercial-grade, high-speed internet is shared across the building.
Residents also enjoy an exceptional range of shared amenities: a rooftop garden with sweeping 360-degree views, an electric BBQ and dining area, a communal veggie garden, eco-friendly laundry facilities, and a rooftop bathhouse with bath and shower for those who want a soak and unwind.
Top floor. Best sunsets in the building, all year round. A rare opportunity to secure a home at the pinnacle of one of Melbourne's most awarded sustainable developments.
