Brilliant location?.walk to everywhere!

The view grabs you when you walk in, a wall of glazing capturing the cityscape and the surrounding mountains. From the elevated balcony you can see Black Mountain Tower and out to the Nishi building. The lower lying heritage rooftops gifting a soothing vista of the Lake, that will never be built out. Living is arranged in an open plan design, orientated towards the light, the panorama of big skies, ever changing colours and epic sunsets.

Set amongst the culture and bustle of the city, akin to the dynamic New Acton precinct, this enviable locale makes inner-city living a dream. Stroll across to the iconic Nishi building for a coffee, hanging out in the roomy, eclectic lobby or take-in, a spontaneous weekend movie at Palace Electric, grabbing some popcorn, perfectly timing your arrival to dodge the ads! Or think, early morning run or walk along the trails that hug the shores of the Lake, with the reward of a warming brunch at the community hub, Mocan & Green Grout.

This peaceful haven within is all creamy off- whites with soft carpet and pops of warm timber. The bedroom floats you amongst the mountainous skies?think falling asleep beneath a bowl of stars as the epic wall of windows welcomes the night within. There is a generous jack-and-jill bathroom with adjacent internal laundry brimming with storage, and a walk-through-robe to keep the clutter at bay. Soft timber cabinetry meets striking black granite worktops within the perfectly arrayed corner kitchen. There is a convenient movable island that can be pushed away to make more room when you entertain.

The Metropolitan building itself sits opposite the heritage Ian Potter House, rising above the city with grandeur. The lobby awash with the textures of stone and timber, with lofty voids strung with elegant pendant lighting and gilded wallpaper. Stainless steel lifts whisk you to the sixth floor where the apartment is housed. And there are wonderful amenities - secure park space, storage cage, indoor heated lap pool and fully equipped gym, sauna, and landscaped communal barbecue area.

You are perfectly situated within the cities western district and close to the walking and biking trails that hug the shores of the Lake. Surrounded by tree lined laneways and pedestrian walkways and with leafy landscaped gardens, the development extends a perfect combo of dynamic urban and relaxing lifestyle. The ANU is also close by, while to the north there is a dynamic enclave of eateries, pubs and cafes bounded by London Circuit, connecting you to the heart of the CBD. The home is within walking distance of all the eateries and bars of the Melbourne building, Civic, and the Braddon precinct. It is also just metres from an upcoming light rail stop and the Capital Metro City Station connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
