This spacious and superbly presented apartment is situated in the prestigious Monarch complex in sought-after Turner. The Monarch, designed by Ring Architects, is a high quality building positioned on the doorstep of Canberra's new light rail line. In close proximity to the Central Business District, the Monarch sits enviably on the axis to Inner North cafe and restaurant precincts. Urban Village Hubs planned along the Northbourne corridor will add future value and amenity to this already exceptional location.
Located on the first floor on the quiet David Street side of the complex, the apartment has been immaculately maintained since new. Offering high quality fitout and features, complemented by a spacious and versatile floor plan that is rare in apartment designs, it is a must to inspect.
Boasting a large 68m2 (approximately) of open-plan living with high ceilings, the clever layout includes a master bedroom, with separate living, dining and study areas adjacent to a central kitchen. Positioned at one end of the complex, the apartment features two side windows allowing cross-ventilation and extra natural light.
An outstanding feature of the apartment is the large study area that accommodates office requirements plus enough room for a guest daybed. With an opening window, this versatile space could be easily reimagined to function as a nursery.
The kitchen, featuring black granite finish and Smeg appliances, captures leafy views from the island bench to the established trees in the courtyard. A separate pantry and generous cupboard space create extra utility for the would-be chef. The functional dining area sits adjacent to the kitchen island.
Double sliding doors from both living and bedroom allow abundant airflow to the apartment and provide access to the sunny, east-facing balcony overlooking internal gardens and reflection pools. At approximately 11m2, the balcony is spacious enough for a potted garden, bbq and outdoor dining setting.
The master bedroom features a walk-through robe to a stylish two-way en suite with granite benches and oversized shower. Opening onto the private balcony with its leafy views, the room has a relaxing, tranquil ambience.
A large entry hall, separate toilet and separate laundry further enhance the apartment's design. For year-round comfort there is reverse-cycle air conditioning, with the addition of 'Magnetite' double glazing throughout (worth approximately $5,000) that provides a high degree of thermal insulation.
The Monarch is a very secure complex and is excellently maintained by a live-in Building Manager. Secure lift access to your apartment door is shared with only two other apartments. Other entitlements include a secure single car space in the basement, a storage shed, access to an indoor heated swimming pool and gymnasium, and ample visitor basement parking.
As it is an easy walk to the City, or stroll to the bustling restaurant precincts of Braddon, O'Connor, Lyneham and Dickson, this immaculate apartment awaits the savvy investor or live-in owner. Come and inspect for yourself!
