The space
Positioned in a sought-after pocket of North Wollongong, this sunlit contemporary apartment is designed for comfort and connection. The entry opens to a generous open-plan living area, where an oversized sofa invites you to stretch out and relax with a book or a movie. Wide windows fill the space with natural light and views of the surrounding greenery. Stay comfortable year-round with split-system air conditioning and heating in the living area.

The kitchen continues the modern aesthetic with stone-look splashbacks, sleek white cabinetry, and quality appliances, including a full-sized fridge, oven, dishwasher, Nespresso machine, and a washer–dryer combo for laundry convenience. Enjoy drinks at the breakfast bar before gathering around the flexible fold-out dining table for shared meals and easy conversation. Step out onto the breezy balcony for a quiet retreat among the trees, unwinding on the outdoor lounge as you soak up the coastal air while dinner sizzles on the nearby BBQ.

Both bedrooms are filled with natural light and feature built-in mirrored wardrobes to keep the spaces tidy, along with blackout blinds for restful sleep. The primary bedroom offers a queen bed and direct access to a small private balcony. The second bedroom includes a single bed and a dedicated study nook—perfect for quiet work, reading, or unwinding after a day by the sea. The bathroom features a walk-in rain shower, sleek vanity, and complimentary toiletries for a refreshing end to your coastal adventures.

Located on level three, the apartment offers lift access and a peaceful position within the building. A private garage is available for a small car only, with free street parking nearby.
