Waterfront prestige: Renovated sanctuary on the edge of Lake Burley Griffin

While there isn’t exactly an option for a true sea change in Canberra, this renovated lakeside home in the prestigious Waterfront complex might just be the next best thing.

Step inside the executive two-bedroom-plus-study apartment at 34/9 Eastlake Parade in Kingston, and you’re instantly greeted by uninterrupted, north-facing views across Lake Burley Griffin straight to the National Carillon and Mount Ainslie.

The sophisticated interiors completely elevate the space, blending large-format grey tiles with Venetian plaster walls that add a tactile texture and a luminous, stone-like aesthetic.

Agent Milton Gan of Luton Properties Manuka says the home is a statement in style and luxury, where “every detail has been reimagined”.

Foodies and entertainers will enjoy the bespoke kitchen, featuring a striking fluted timber breakfast bar with a hidden drinks cupboard, plus a pull-out larder, a Schock quartz composite sink and premium appliances.

Flowing effortlessly from the main living area and off the second bedroom is a cosy winter garden with underfloor heating.

It serves as a light-filled retreat for a quiet morning coffee or a convenient extension of the living space for when friends drop by.

The clever layout also ensures moments of privacy.

The segregated main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe that leads into a large en suite boasting a free-standing bath and double vanity.

If you’re working from home, the dedicated study has you covered with dual workstations, floor-to-ceiling custom storage and a sliding door you can shut for uninterrupted focus.

Of course, location is everything here.

The apartment is positioned moments from the bike paths that wrap around the lake, and from the buzzing Kingston Foreshore dining precinct.

Local shops are only about a kilometre away, while the Parliamentary Triangle is within a three-kilometre radius.

“This is a rare opportunity to secure the ultimate Kingston Foreshore residence,” Gan says.
