CLAYFIELD

THE DEAL

Set within a tightly held boutique building of just seven residences, this architecturally reimagined apartment offers a rare combination of character, quality and lifestyle convenience in one of Clayfield’s most desirable pockets.

Renovated in full over the past two years, the home has been thoughtfully designed with a calm and cohesive feel throughout. The north-facing living area and main bedroom are filled with natural light, while the southern side of the apartment looks out to a private, leafy backdrop that brings a real sense of peace and privacy.

The open plan living and dining space flows easily to the balcony and is anchored by a stunning custom kitchen with natural Sicilia marble benchtops, quality appliances and beautifully finished cabinetry. Every detail has been carefully considered, from the bronze hardware and ABI brushed nickel tapware through to the linen curtains, feature lighting and soft, neutral colour palette which compliments the hybrid timber flooring.

The bathroom continues this level of finish, with stone surfaces, in-wall cistern, rain and hand shower and a layout that feels more like a boutique hotel than an apartment. Both bedrooms are well sized and fitted with new carpet and flyscreens, while the solid brick construction provides excellent insulation, acoustics and year-round comfort.

The building itself is a big part of what makes this home special. Built in the late 1960s, it is home to a friendly mix of owner occupiers and long term residents, creating a genuine sense of community. The original timber windows are a rare and beautiful feature for Brisbane apartments and add warmth and character throughout. The building has been well maintained, with recent repainting, professional cleaning and a clear plan for ongoing works in the years ahead.

Practicality has also been well thought through, with a single carport, plenty of street parking, exclusive use of the laundry, healthy sinking and admin funds and sensible body corporate fees.

The location brings everything together. You can walk to Albion, Wooloowin and Eagle Junction stations, Oriel Park and the Albion precinct. Newstead, New Farm and the airport are all around ten minutes away by car. Despite this incredible connectivity, the home sits in a quiet, affluent pocket with no road noise.

This is a home that feels easy to live in, beautifully finished and genuinely special.
