This stunning two-bedroom apartment is distinctive, open, timeless and light. A rich organic material palette utilising a combo of raw brick, concrete and crisp white finishes nods to the unique history of the building and its ultra-edgy refurb.

The home floats above the dynamic happenings of the Woden precinct, moments from the inner north and the CBD. The twin 1960s Commonwealth buildings offering stunning views of the city, a beautifully curated rooftop social hub, with gardens, barbecue, and a sparkling pool. Beneath the buildings there is an exciting new retail and commercial precinct with large courtyards, gymnasium, brewery, restaurants, and small boutiques.

The Alexander & Albemarle buildings, which once housed public service offices have been given a new identity by the award winning Doma Group in collaboration with Cox architects. Much sought after, the A&A is part of the powerful narrative of reclaiming older spaces to offer an exciting, multi-faceted, urban lifestyle.

Expanses of white walls and the tumbled texture of raw brick are perfect canvases for curated artworks, to compliment the edgy artisanal vibe. The lofty interior volumes achieved by the soaring concrete ceilings, create a tranquil environment for thinking creatively and deeply. Walls of glass sliders welcome sunlight and there is an easy drift to breezy balcony from the open plan social arena.

Perfectly banked in one corner, with gleaming cabinetry rising from warm timber flooring, the kitchen is effortlessly spacious, with custom joinery maximising every square inch. Smeg appliances and soft touch closings, merge's function and style, while the wonderful open sociability fosters communion, easy entertaining.

There is ample storage in both generous bedrooms with soft woollen carpet keeping things cosy and lush. The adjacent bathrooms are finished in floor to ceiling tiling in minimal whites with terrazzo flooring, frameless showers and recessed shelving. Throw in double glazing and a 6-star energy rating and you have an easy, sustainable lifestyle, seeded within a great community, with the best of urban/village living at your doorstep.

Enjoy the peace of your inner sanctuary or step out to enjoy the buzzing restaurants and cafés of Phillip which is home to Westfield shopping centre and Hoyt's cinema. There is an array of health and fitness options at your doorstep, from yoga through to ice-skating. A multitude of independent restaurants, cafés and bars are a few steps away with local favourites including - Space Kitchen for amazing breakfasts and cakes, Eighty Six South restaurant and The Alby for a beverage or two and a game of pinball.
