Penthouse Perfection With Unparalleled Views: Live the High Life in Honeysuckle

Indulge in unparalleled views from this signature apartment perched on the top floor of an absolute waterfront Honeysuckle complex. Enjoy being nestled in the heart of this dynamic precinct brimming with nightlife and recreational activities. Promising the epitome of urban-meets-beach lifestyle, this rare offering boasts prime waterfront views as a northeast penthouse in the building.

Positioned perfectly on the north-east corner, this prime location grants mesmerising vistas spanning from Newcastle Harbour to the golden sands of Birubi Beach. The home's wall-to-wall glass stacker doors, paired with soaring 2.8m ceilings, flood the space with natural light and frame the picturesque outlook, while the apartment's north-south orientation invites cooling coastal breezes to effortlessly flow through.

The home's substantial living area is thoughtfully appointed with wall-to-wall built-in storage, seamlessly blending style with functionality, while the dining area's generous proportions invites convivial dinner parties.

The master bedroom serves as your exclusive sanctuary, featuring a private door leading to the balcony, allowing you to immerse yourself in the harbour views. Within, the ensuite indulges with opulent fittings - a luxurious freestanding bath, rain shower, and dual vanities, promising a spa-like escape.
