Cool urban retreat: airy apartment

In a secluded position in a boutique collection of apartment homes is the perfect urban retreat: a fabulous sense of space and openness, and total convenience and centrality. Walk to Gilberts for fresh produce, enjoy the local cafés, make the most of easy public transport, or head down the road to central Freo and the beach. You can be the first to own this beautifully designed home, with striking exteriors in natural brick and charcoal hues, set amongst native landscaping. This elevated apartment is something special, with your own private entry lobby and stair adding volume to the interior space, taking you straight into the airy open plan with green outlooks everywhere.

Pale oak-look flooring, engineered stone tops and glossy white cabinetry in the kitchen and bathrooms, soft latte tones in the splashbacks, and quality neutral carpeting in the bedrooms are among the fine finishes that give a serene feel to the interior styling. The open space of the stair, with high windows to the west and east, is incorporated into the air-conditioned living, making everything feel spacious and light. The smart L-shaped kitchen wraps around the dining area, flowing to the living space and opening to the balcony. Windows all around invite the outdoors in, with long vistas to gum trees and Norfolk Island pines.

Past the concealed European laundry is the bedroom zone: air-conditioned master suite with walk-in robe and a finely designed en-suite bathroom, a second bedroom with mirrored built-in robes and more leafy outlooks, and the main bathroom with long vanity and frameless glass shower.

The dedicated carbay is by your front door, with a secure storeroom opposite. Entry is through automatic gates, with an intercom for guests, and it all offers easy flexibility to lock up and travel. The industrial-style architecture, fine finishes, and convenient location of this boutique development are a real drawcard, and number 12 is a standout.
