The find of the year is situated on the 6th Floor of The Realm Quarters, adjacent to the luxury award winning Hotel Realm. This was the first building built in the Realm precinct in 2009, and set new standards in Canberra for the fastidious and luxury apartment market. The sales over recent years has stood testament to the prestige and quality on offer for the discerning buyer.
The Realm will surpass your high expectations of quality facilities and amenities, and residents have a professional gym, a day spa and pool close by to enjoy.
There is simply no other precinct like this in Canberra.
This 118m2 two bedroom ensuite apartment includes a beautiful 'winter garden' room, and offers executive living and dining. A stylish Chef's galley style kitchen awaits with Caesarstone bench tops, Miele appliances, automatic soft-closing cupboards and drawers, and bi-fold doors in front of the stove top and oven.
Abundant light flows from the stacker glass doors opening out to a winter/summer room, which will provides a flexible indoor/outdoor solution at all times of the year.
Two spacious bedrooms both have glorious panoramic views that will always be there - the leafy surrounds of Red Hill, Manuka and Forrest - with substantial built-in robes. Both bathrooms are luxurious with full height tiling, white marble vanities, pearl mosaic feature tiling, mirrored cabinets and large showers. The ensuite boasts an elegant and deep marble encased bath, perfect for relaxation at the end of the day.
Ducted heating and cooling will ensure you are comfortable at all times of the year. The European laundry with dryer has been positioned to appropriately hide behind double doors in the main bathroom.
You will never want for storage with this apartment, with full length cupboards along the living room wall as well. Everything has been thought of - even block-out curtains - there is nothing to be improved!
Mostly comprising live-in owners, the building has been meticulously managed and maintained and has recently completed landscaping of common grounds, re-painting of all lobbies and hallways, installed CC TV cameras in the main lobby and basements, and improved basement gate security both ways. Secure entry and lift access ensures this particular building gives peace of mind and is completely private. The privileged group of fortunate residents who own apartments here can also be assured that the Executive Committee of the Body Corporate have a sizeable sinking fund, so the high standards are assured for the long term, without the need for excessive increases in future years.
Realm Quarters is located in the heart of Barton - walking distance to Lake Burley Griffin every morning for a bright start to the day - as well as less than 500m to Parliament House, and minutes to the City. The precinct has developed to offer a style of living not experienced elsewhere in Canberra, with formal and casual dining options aplenty just outside your front door downstairs. Equally, neighbouring suburbs of Manuka and Kingston provide an vast array of boutique stores, restaurants and cafés and are only a few minutes away.
