Apartment

Block size: 331 m² approx.

Top floor apartment with a balcony off every room and views for miles!

Elevated in a quiet boutique building of only six, this immaculate modern apartment offers space, security, and sweeping green vistas.

Boasting an ultra-convenient location just footsteps from express CBD bus routes, cafes, shops, and parkland, plus a 5-minute drive to Westfield Carindale, the property represents an unmissable opportunity for first home buyers or investors to enter ever-growing Carina.

A unique design sees covered alfresco balconies run the entire width of both the front and rear of the residence, capturing abundant natural light, fresh cross-breezes and superb treetop, parkland, and district views across to Whites Hill Reserve.

Creating the perfect indoor-outdoor lifestyle, two expansive sets of glass doors connect each of the living, dining, and kitchen spaces with the main alfresco entertaining terrace. Meanwhile, both privately positioned bedrooms, including the master with ensuite and walk-in robe, enjoy their own access onto a rear balcony set amongst lush palm trees.

Featuring Daikin reverse-cycle air-conditioning to the living areas, as well as ceiling fans and security/insect screening throughout, the property also enjoys the insulation benefits of solid brick and concrete construction.

Additional highlights include secure intercom entry; a spotless modern kitchen with breakfast bar and stainless steel dishwasher; large second bathroom featuring a designated internal laundry area; soft carpeted bedrooms with plenty of integrated storage, and space for a study nook in the lounge.
The apartment's private remote garage with extra storage is conveniently positioned right at the building entrance, while visitors are offered additional onsite and plenty of unrestricted street parking.

And location-wise, this address is simply unbeatable! Walk in around 5 minutes to bus stops, a gourmet IGA supermarket, specialty shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants including the popular Elios Italian. Footsteps from Joe Bradfield Park with playground, dog area and hireable tennis-courts, residents are also moments from bikeways, the local library, Carina Leagues and Bowls Clubs, Clem Jones Fitness/Swim Centre (currently undergoing an incredible multi-million-dollar redevelopment), the new public Minnippi Golf Course, as well as a choice of top schools and childcare.
