Breathtaking city views with Skyworks on your doorstep

IMAGINE having a balcony big enough to fit family and friends, while you kick back with the BBQ on and a glass of bubbly in your hand, watching the Skyworks from front-row seats.

It sounds like a very expensive hotel, but in fact, it’s just one of the incredible features available as part of the beautiful house-sized apartment at 601/1 The Esplanade in Mount Pleasant.

“You can’t put a price on just how good the views are that offer a panoramic vista of the Canning River, Swan River, and Kings Park,” said vendor Rob Whitesmith.

“My wife Michelle and I have lived here for four years and we both have wonderful memories of sitting on the huge balcony with family and friends while watching the Skyworks over Perth – the apartment is easily big enough to have extended family over.

“The balcony also offers a full-sized BBQ cooker which is rather rare for an apartment – especially as we benefit from the complex being small, residential, and very quiet.

“The beauty of the property is it’s a single level but split over two towers – with bedrooms on one side and all of the living areas on the other. Both have huge terraces, so a veggie garden is always another option.

“There’s also a fully-fitted office with workstations already in there so that’ll really suit buyers who are now working from home more than they used to.

“We’ve also been told that a rooftop position with three car bays in a boutique-sized complex of only 18 residents, on the actual waterfront, is about as exclusive as it gets for apartments.

“We actually had to spend two weeks in quarantine here when we got back from South America and we loved every minute of it – what a wonderful place to be in isolation.

“We moved from a house to this apartment and I was a bit apprehensive about the change – but it genuinely feels like a house as it’s so big – it will appeal to so many buyers.

“It’s also positioned wonderfully with a 24-hour IGA across the road, great restaurants, and is just 400m* from the station, which is one stop to Elizabeth Quays, so it has it all.”

Ray White Applecross Specialist Noel Rogers said the property provided a very special opportunity to buyers who wished to make the move to apartment living whilst maintaining the luxury of genuine spaciousness.

“This is arguably the most generous open-plan styled apartment residence of any kind along the actual waterfront,” Mr Rogers said.

“It’s a masterstroke from award-winning architects Overman Zuideveld, with many natural design elements that embrace its premium position, and without fuss.

“It's so large a cinema-sized TV screen, several over-sized sofas, an extra long banquet table and a grand piano would all feel at home in this magnificent north-east corner.

“Other superb selections include West Australian Blackbutt floors, stone benchtops, twin Miele ovens, automated blinds and drapes, raked ceilings, fully ducted air conditioning and quality fabric window treatments.

“Every luxury lifestyle amenity is at your immediate convenience, including a 20-metre pool, sauna, gymnasium, conference room, outdoor function area, commercial size lobby area for guests and undercover visitor parking.

“Another standout feature is that the complex is only six floors. This means the penthouse is the perfect height to enjoy the views, but also the theatre of activity on the river with the dog walkers and joggers, it’s just a beautiful place to live.”
