Overview

Positioned within the tightly held Estate development, this apartment residence offers a unique blend of refined design and practical luxury. From the moment you enter, the home is filled with soft northeast light and boasts uninterrupted views toward the heritage church, creating an inviting and bright living environment. The interior design combines a sophisticated dark palette with warm, natural finishes that enhance the comfort and style of the space, making it a beautifully considered living area.

This unit stands out with its unique floorplan, with no other identical layout within the complex. It emphasizes liveability and generous proportions, featuring clever separation between entertaining and private spaces, and an impressive amount of storage rare in apartment living.

The heart of the apartment is the open plan kitchen, living, and dining area which flows seamlessly onto a large, oversized entertaining balcony extending the length of the apartment. This setup allows for an expansive and highly functional lifestyle space. The dark scheme kitchen beautifully contrasts with the lighter flooring and ample natural light, centered around a substantial island bench equipped with an integrated wine fridge, abundant storage, and premium Gaggenau appliances ensuring a high-end culinary experience. The apartment has been meticulously maintained and is presented in immaculate condition.

A key design feature is the thoughtful separation between the bedrooms and living areas, ensuring genuine privacy for guests, families, or those working from home. Both bedrooms are generously sized and provide direct access to the balcony and excellent robe storage; the main suite has its own walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom. The main bathroom includes a full bathtub, providing additional practicality and comfort, especially for young families.

Residents of the Empire building within Estate enjoy access to a private residents' terrace, enhancing the lifestyle offerings beyond the apartment itself.

The complex frequently hosts community events fostering a rare and inviting neighbourhood atmosphere within apartment living.
