Luxury Top-Floor Retreat in the Heart of Reid – Canberra’s Premier Escape

Indulge in effortless elegance at this stunning 2-bed, 2-bath top-floor apartment in one of Canberra’s most desirable suburbs. Bathed in natural light with premium finishes, it’s the perfect sanctuary for couples, small families, or business travellers. Steps from the CBD and a relaxed 20-minute stroll to Lake Burley Griffin.

Unwind in style with resort-like amenities including rooftop pools, secure parking, and more.

The space
This modern top-floor apartment has been thoughtfully designed as a true luxury retreat, blending contemporary style with every comfort for an effortless Canberra stay.

Two Serene Bedrooms
o The master bedroom features a luxurious Sleeping Duck queen mattress that cradles you for deep, restorative sleep after a full day exploring the capital.
o The second bedroom offers a comfortable double bed, dressed in premium, high-thread-count bedding to ensure a peaceful night's rest for all guests.

Two Elegant Bathrooms
Both feature spacious walk-in showers with endless hot water. Pamper yourself with premium Aesop hand and body wash—the calming, harmonious scents help melt away the day's stresses. Each shower is equipped with Well Verti filtration pods that reduce chlorine, heavy metals, and VOCs while infusing Swiss minerals, leaving your skin feeling refreshed and nourished.

Light-Filled Open-Plan Living Area
Sink into the cosy, sun-drenched lounge with sleek modern furnishings and premium touches. Unwind in front of the stunning Premium Frame TV (which doubles as elegant wall art when not in use) or stream your favourites via the fully set-up Apple TV—Netflix, Apple TV+, Plex, and more are ready to go. Perfect for relaxed evenings or quiet downtime.

Fully Equipped Gourmet Kitchen
Cook with ease in this sleek, contemporary space:
o Full-size fridge/freezer with filtered water and ice-machine, oven, stovetop, microwave, and dishwasher for seamless meals and cleanup.
o Quality cookware (pots, pans, baking trays, sharp knives), plus all essential utensils, cutting boards, plates, bowls, glasses, mugs, and cutlery (ample for families or small groups).
o Starter pantry essentials including olive oil, salt, pepper, Nespresso coffee pods, tea, and sugar to kick things off.
o Cleaning supplies (dish soap, sponges, tea towels, foil, cling wrap, bin bags) so you can focus on enjoying your stay rather than shopping.

Whether you're preparing a quick brekkie, enjoying takeaway from nearby spots, or cooking a proper meal, everything is set up for self-catering comfort in style.

Your retreat awaits—come home to luxury and recharge in the heart of Canberra.

Other things to note
Prime Location in Charming Reid
Reid is one of Canberra’s most desirable inner-city suburbs—leafy, heritage-rich, and perfectly positioned just moments from the vibrant CBD. Enjoy tree-lined streets and easy access to everything: stroll to the Canberra Centre for shopping, cafes, restaurants, and bars; hop on public transport or take a quick drive to Parliament House, the National Gallery, National Museum, Lake Burley Griffin (ideal for relaxed walks or picnics), and the Australian War Memorial. No car needed for city exploration, but secure parking is included if you have one. It’s the ideal base for blending culture, history, and laid-back Canberra living.

Important House Notes
o Check-in & Access — Secure 24/7 entry.
o Quiet Enjoyment — We kindly ask for quiet hours after 10 pm to respect our neighbours. The top-floor position naturally provides extra peace and privacy.
o No Smoking — Strictly no smoking inside the apartment to keep the space fresh and luxurious for all guests.
o Climate Comfort — Canberra summers can get warm; we recommend leaving the air conditioning running during your stay for consistent comfort. Our smart automation system pre-cools the apartment to a welcoming temperature before you arrive, and a Dyson fan is on hand for extra cooling as needed.
o General Care — This is a family-friendly retreat designed for relaxation—perfect for short city breaks, business trips, sightseeing, or quality time with loved ones. Treat it with care, and it’ll feel like home from the moment you step in.

We’re thrilled you’ve chosen our luxury retreat and look forward to making your Canberra stay truly memorable. If anything comes up, just message—we’re here to help.
