Elevation and unrivalled views at new Altura townhouses

Luxury and functionality are the core features of Denman Prospect’s newest premium development, Altura.

Designed by award-winning DNA Architects and constructed by renowned Living Design Projects, these three and four-bedroom townhouses combine artistic innovation with striking architecture.

From the outset, it’s clear that ample thought has gone into the design of this development, with each of the 26 townhouses having uninterrupted views of surrounding parkland, a basement carpark and a north-facing balcony or courtyard.

Some dwellings also have internal light wells that shoot through two, or even three levels, to ensure natural light fills all areas of the home.

“When you grab your morning coffee and walk out onto your balcony or into your courtyard, you’ll be greeted by warm hues of the rising sun on your right,” developer Paul Dermatis says.

“The views in Denman Prospect are unsurpassed. Because the suburb is elevated, you can see a combination of rolling hills, parkland, Black Mountain Tower, and parts of Lake Burley Griffin, all from your little piece of the capital.”

Inspiration for the external facade came from the neighbouring bushland and landscape of the suburb. The modern design comprises light masonry and concrete, complemented by timber cladding and dark steel fenestrations.

While Altura makes for a great investment or first home, it’s also perfect for downsizers who want the convenience of a terrace, with some added leg room.

The open design makes superb use of the space, which also features a neutral colour palette, double-glazed windows, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, and engineered timber floors.

Optional upgrades include home automation, integrated audio systems and video intercom.

“Being both comfortable and livable, Altura has been specially designed to meet owners’ needs,” Peaker says.

“It really is the pinnacle of contemporary living and will stand the test of time.”

Construction is due for completion towards the end of 2019.
