16/1 Stadium Drive, Floreat WA 6014

Occupying a prime corner position within the stunning “Empire West Apartments” building on the historic old Perry Lakes Stadium site, this quality 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment will impress you with its modern style, privacy, space and openness, as well as a unique northeast-facing elevation that allows for splendid natural internal light and a lovely tree-lined outlook when entertaining out on the balcony.

A generous open-plan living, dining and kitchen area oozes class and doubles as the central hub of the residence, separating the wraparound balcony and rear master suite from the second bedroom and main bathroom-come-laundry that makes the most of the wall space on offer. Aside from two tandem under-cover parking bays and your own hidden lock-up storeroom off the balcony, residents can also enjoy exclusive use of a fully-equipped lounge area (with a boardroom and kitchenette), a billiards room, upstairs gym and external barbecue facilities – all nestled away within the 1962 British Empire and Commonwealth Games scoreboard building that still stands today in its refurbished form.

Perfectly situated between the coast and the city, this exceptional pad is just a short walk to Floreat Forum and The Boulevard Hotel, less than five kilometres to restaurants aplenty at the beautiful City and Floreat Beaches and only 10 minutes from first-class shopping, entertainment and dining in both the CBD and Claremont. With “living convenience” written all over it, this dream down-sizer is ideal for those seeking something more “lock up and leave”!
