In expansive resort-like tropical grounds, this exceptionally spacious apartment is the ideal downsize without compromise.

Just one of nine in a boutique complex, it sits at the quiet end of Parnell's prestigious St Stephens Avenue.

With three large bedrooms, a home office and two bathrooms plus powder room and separate laundry, it is undoubtedly substantial. Thanks to a high stud and huge picture windows on three aspects it is sun-filled and light.

The living room basks in warm light, capturing glorious sunsets, views of the city and Sky Tower. External sliding shutters shade the sun when required and air conditioning throughout ensures perfect temperatures all year round.

A sheltered terrace off the living area and the master bedroom offers a sunny outdoor spot to sit and relax, overlooking the sparkling pool and spa. Two bedrooms with Juliette balconies share a family bathroom while the large master suite includes a walk-in dressing room plus ensuite.

Although this pet-friendly escape with expansive resort-like grounds is away from the bustle, it is also incredibly handy to Parnell village, the waterfront and the CBD. With two-car secure basement garaging and a storage locker, the DGZ apartment offers ‘the best of both worlds'.

An absolute downsizer's delight. Ignore the CV and enquire today.
