Last Listing description (March 2023)
The "Ivy" is the landmark address in the Woden Town Centre that makes a bold architectural statement. This modern penthouse apartment, the largest in the building, has a unique floor plan designed for livability and luxury.
Natural light from the 180-degree panoramic view across Yarra Glen to Telstra Tower reflects off the hardwood floors to create a warm ambience throughout the lounge/dining. The adjacent kitchen is as spacious as it is striking with dark tiles and stylish finishings creating a stunning contrast to wooden features, and bright white custom-built pantry and cupboards. The expansive waterfall stone island benchtop and Smeg appliances - including induction cooktop - will inspire you to don your chef's hat and cook up something marvellous.
The king-size master suite with walk-in robe shares the apartment's spectacular northern view to Black Mountain. The stunning ensuite with double vanity imbues a sense of luxury perfect for washing away the worries of the day. The other two bedrooms are spacious, with large built-in wardrobes, floor-to-ceiling windows and access to the balcony. The full-sized main bathroom is breathtaking, boasting a contemporary aesthetic of wood, floor-to-ceiling tile and glass that compliments the dusk colour scheme of the property.
Long, summer nights insist you kick back on the large balcony as the sun sets over the capital. Or, if it's indoor entertainment you crave, a separate media room makes a perfect home cinema or second living space - a rare find in apartment living. So too is the double lock up garage for peace of mind when parking your cars and storing your belongings.
The European laundry cupboard uses space cleverly and blends in with the incredible amount of storage this apartment offers.
Living at the "Ivy" is like always being on holiday. The recreational amenities include indoor and outdoor pools. The sauna, spa, plus cardio and weights gyms, along with landscaped gardens, picnic areas and barbecues provide opportunity to refresh the soul. The friendly Ivy community runs organised events and offers casual hallway chats if you want them, while the community newsletter and social media groups keep you up to date with what's going on.
Westfield Woden and the Phillip Business District, public and private schools, Canberra Hospital and the future Canberra Institute of Technology are within walking distance of the Ivy. The area boasts entertainment via the clubs, bars, restaurants, and cinemas.
This is a rare opportunity for a large apartment in central Woden, ideal for young professionals, families or downsizers. It is a genuine opportunity to establish yourself in this iconic complex where luxury and location come together to create the perfect home.
