With elevated views across Haig Park, this tastefully updated three-bedroom apartment sits in a prime position within the vibrant Braddon precinct. A clever neutral palette creates a soothing, minimalist air. Moments from Lonsdale St, on the edge of the city, yet amenable to ample green spaces, including the nature trails of Mt Ainslie, the home is both nurturing retreat and yet centrally located within the cosmopolitan milieu.
Spatial ingenuity displayed over two levels- the master suite occupies the entire upper floor and commands both bedroom, office and ensuite, while the ground floor accommodates open living, couplet of bedrooms and family bathroom. There is a consistent language throughout the home - neutral colours and natural materials - creating a simple elegance and cosiness. Blackbutt timber floorboards flow underfoot and sweeping ceiling heights add to a felt experience of airy, spaciousness.
The open living, dining, kitchen extends to sunny north facing balcony, connecting the interior to the outdoors. From here you look out and over the ancient pines of Haig Park, drawing in the fragrance and breeze. This is a gorgeous spot to relax with family and friends, sharing food, story and laughter.
The modern kitchen is open and refined, with a mood of Nordic happiness - banks of soft grey cabinetry, marbled stone benchtops, subway tiling, timber shelving - functional as well as beautiful, designed for an ease of cooking, sharing and interacting.
The mezzanine master bedroom, with built-in-robe and ensuite, has a Zen like quality with its elevation and open views, out to void and living area beneath. Skylights draw soft light into the space and a timber office nook, adds texture and warmth. The deep blue wardrobe doors, contribute contrast and depth.
Two bedrooms, both with large windows with verdant aspect, are sheltered and shaded by plantation shutters. Perfectly located, close to bathroom, set back form the living area, allowing the kids to retire, while the parents entertain with friends into the evening.
Large Italian marbled floor tiles, frameless glass showers and crisp white vanities with timber accents continue the signature material story. The downstairs family bathroom has a lovely soaking tub and both wet areas extend an ambience of calming oasis.
