Rare opportunity to secure a home in the acclaimed Nightingale 1 development, a multi award-winning building designed by Breathe Architecture. Perfectly positioned on the second floor with a prized northern orientation, this exceptionally spacious apartment blends the character of an industrial warehouse with contemporary comfort, all while embracing the building's core philosophy of genuine environmentally sustainable living.
The striking façade combines recycled bricks from the original warehouse with natural timber, setting the tone for the apartment's distinctive interior. Lofty raw concrete ceilings, reclaimed timber flooring, copper, brass, steel and exposed timber create a warm, sophisticated home with timeless appeal.
One of the building's standout features is the expansive communal rooftop, offering a welcoming space to relax, entertain and connect with neighbours. Individual timber planter boxes allow residents to grow their own herbs and vegetables, while enjoying sweeping views of Melbourne's city skyline. The rooftop garden and north-facing vertical greenery help reduce the urban heat island effect while naturally cooling the building.
