It's easy to think apartments are all the same, but we know they're not! Finding an apartment that ticks all the boxes – abundant natural light, lots of space, courtyards, and a bee's knees location – is harder than it sounds!
Impeccably presented by its current owner, the ijong.home is warm and inviting, with nothing to do; simply move in and enjoy. Extending to courtyards at both ends, this vibrant ground floor apartment is modernised with effortlessly easy living seamlessly flowing to the outdoors. Positioned in the heart of the coveted, leaf precinct of Braddon, you are just a short stroll from the bustle of Lonsdale Street.
A small development of twenty-one units and townhouses, the Arc has a high percentage of owner-occupiers with friendly neighbours and inter-connecting, leafy communal courtyards. A central entry corridor with an extravagantly vaulted ceiling and skylights provides an architectural entry sequence to this lovely ground floor home.
The spacious kitchen, living, dining is characterised by large windows and sliding doors that open to a front, north facing courtyard. Engineered timber flooring and a neutral palate perfectly complements this sun-drenched arena. At the end of the day, a quick close of the blinds transforms the home into a cosy space.
Both bedrooms are serene spaces, graced with morning light. The main bedroom has a walk-through robe and modern ensuite, with the added benefit of fresh air and cross ventilation as it opens via glass doors to the south-east facing rear courtyard. The second bedroom has a built-in-wardrobe and is aligned with a spacious family bathroom – adjacent to the main bathroom.
The rear courtyard has a paved alfresco dining area lined with established camellias. Spacious and private, it is the perfect space for relaxing. A gate provides access to connecting, communal courtyards - think tables under trees, a peaceful, leafy enclave in the heart of the city, summer barbecues, socialising with neighbours.
