Stunningly situated in the much sought-after "Boans Warehouse" building that underwent an impressive residential conversion in the late 1990s, this industrial New York-style one-bedroom one-bathroom apartment with a spacious loft is perfect for the first-home buyer looking to enter into the East Perth market without compromising on location, design or quality.
The beautifully-tiled open-plan living, dining and kitchen area will charm you immediately and boasts exposed ceiling beams, stainless-steel splashbacks and matching modern cooktop, oven and dishwasher appliances. The practical bathroom-come-laundry is brilliant in its simplicity and features a huge shower, toilet, wash trough and a powder vanity for washing up.
Generous in its proportions, the bedroom is also tiled for low-maintenance living and has its own mirrored built-in wardrobes, plus an access ladder leading up to a huge extra 4.7m x 2.2m (approx.) storage-loft space that has been formed as a result of a striking angled ceiling. There is plenty of room to set up your studio workspace or guest sleeping quarters upstairs, with the mezzanine/loft level working perfectly as either a study/home office or second bedroom and overlooking the void and living room down below.
Sliding doors off the living space reveal a large tiled open-air courtyard - one of the biggest in the complex - and allow you to entertain in complete privacy and tranquility. There is also a secure single under-cover car bay for good measure.
