The apartment features arched windows unique to Level 8, entry hall, a spacious bedroom, light-filled living room, a dining room that cleverly doubles as a sunroom, large bathroom, and modern custom-built kitchen. A separate internal laundry is discreetly concealed.
A port-hole window, finished in gold leaf, between the kitchen and the sunroom provides views out to Sydney Heads.
Bespoke interiors are by award-winning architect Scott Weston and include a bedroom named one of House & Garden’s Top 50 Rooms. It features a “floating” built-in timber veneer bed and side tables, concertina wall panels, Artemide lamps, and a floor-to-ceiling library inset with gold-leaf showcases.
Adjoining the bedroom is a walk-in wardrobe with silver-leaf shelving and customised joinery that also accommodates a functional home office with a million-dollar view.
The living room has a feature wall of chinoiserie wallpaper and the sunroom custom-made banquettes with ample storage.
The flexible floor plan can be configured for a second bedroom / dining room or home office / study.
