6/3 Howard Street, Morningside QLD 4170

Perched high in the most coveted pocket of Morningside, just metres from the cafes and parkland of Hawthorne, this stunning apartment boasts extraordinary space, style and accessibility.

One of only nine in a secure boutique complex completed in 2016, the as-new residence enjoys elevation and city skyline views with the rarity of direct pedestrian access from street level. There are absolutely no stairs. Lift access is also provided from the basement carpark.

The grand open-plan living area is enhanced by soaring ceilings of up to 3.2 metres, extra-height doorways and wall-to-wall glass doors leading out to an expansive entertaining terrace. All three bedrooms are very generously sized with plenty of integrated storage. The privately positioned master features its own ensuite and east-facing balcony, perfect for that morning coffee!

Enjoying the luxury of reverse cycle air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout, the apartment also features high-end finishes including stone benchtops, 2Pac joinery, European Smeg kitchen appliances and Villeroy and Boch basins. Large format floor tiling and a soft contemporary colour palette create spaces of pure elegance. Meanwhile, a separate laundry, video intercom and security screens to capture hillside breezes also feature.

Striking inside and out, the building’s foyer is finished in polished concrete and rich hardwood. A communal herb garden has been established for residents and the beautifully maintained building offers reasonable body corporate rates and four onsite visitors parking spaces.

Offering the perfect vantage point for Brisbane’s New Nears Eve fireworks displays, this unique address is just footsteps from great coffee shops, a bakery and Hawthorne Park, with easy walking distance to bus transport, the ‘Garage’ gourmet grocer and Hawthorne’s vibrant cinema, dining and bar precinct. It is also metres from excellent local schools or childcare, with access in minutes to the stunning riverfront, spoils of Oxford Street Bulimba and the CBD just 4km away.

Three-bedroom apartments have become increasingly difficult to come by, let alone ones of this calibre in such a location. Inspection is a must.
