Located in the heart of Canberra this premium, top floor apartment combines inner city living with uninterrupted views of Haig Park.
This apartment features two bedrooms, both with ample storage space. The large, open plan design and large all-weather balcony leading from the spacious living area connects the apartment with park views and primes this apartment for relaxing and entertaining - a rarity among smaller city apartments.
The modern kitchen is fitted with high quality features including SMEG appliances, chrome tapware, stone bench tops and abundant storage with soft closures. A European laundry with dryer and a pristine bathroom with duel towel rails highlight the functional use of space in this as new apartment.
This apartment is north facing: comfortable and energy efficient with an EER of 6.0 requiring minimal energy to maintain an ambient temperature year-round. Double glazing on all windows and sound proofing in the walls creates a serenely quiet environment on the door step of bustling Lonsdale Street.
The IQ apartments draw their name from the smart technologies that the discerning buyer is looking for including Fibre NBN connection, SMATV system, Pay/FTA TV outlets, real time energy monitoring, video intercom and programmable ducted reverse cycle air conditioning (with compressor on the roof not the balcony). And as an "IQ" development, the building has a large lobby, a shared garden and BBQ area, as well as comprehensive security with restricted access, security cameras and reliable, patrolled visitor parking. The body corporate team are effective communicators and are committed to representing the owners.
In the basement, two designated car parks right next to lift will make you feel like a ‘rock star.' An easily accessible, extra-large concealed lockup storage space has plenty of storage room for boxes, multiple bikes etc.
The benefits of this apartment will continue to grow, as its value appreciates in the future. The IQ building is directly adjacent to a light rail stop on Northbourne Avenue (due 2019), a stone's throw from Lonsdale Street's cafes, bars and restaurants, a short walk to many amenities including the Canberra Centre, the Australian National University, the City Library and Lake Burley Griffin and just a 15-minute drive to the Canberra airport.
In considering the features of this apartment, it is hard to find a box left unticked for an owner occupier or investor. Currently tenanted at $550/week.
