This corner Penthouse was never listed on the "off-the-plan" selling process when Glebe Park Residences was first released. Recognised as the very best of the best in the entire complex, it was put aside for a very savvy buyer. When circumstances changed, it then first became available to the market in 2010.

This perfectly aspected north-facing two storey Penthouse offers all the size and amenity of a large home, with the benefit of having permanent uninterrupted views of historical Glebe Park and Mt Ainslie.

The massive open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area has spectacular views from every angle with the floor to ceiling doors, and windows that can be opened for cross ventilation. Balconies work as practical living areas in their own right in this magnificent home in the sky, and create a seamless indoor/outdoor connection and feeling of spaciousness. The marble kitchen offers all the amenities expected of such a luxurious home, together with a temperature-controlled cellar.

The segregated and spacious second living area offers many options. New owners may use it as a 4th bedroom, or a home office, or a library/study, or home theatre.

The master bedroom is a true retreat with a stylish walk-in robe and a massive marble ensuite with a separated bath and shower. Bedroom 2 also has its own walk-through robe with its own marble ensuite. The marble bathroom for Bedroom 3 and visitors continues, commensurate with prestige quality fixtures and fittings on display everywhere. The master and Bedroom 2 can each easily accommodate king bed furniture, and Bedroom 3 is a comfortable queen bed size.

The upstairs Terrace area has a fully functional kitchen with barbecue facilities, dishwasher and granite benchtop and backsplash, with loads of space for a dining table and lounge furniture. The plunge pool with the deck provides 360 degree views over Canberra - a perfect addition to the second storey living which can maybe best be described as an entertainer's dream of a private low maintenance backyard in the heart of Civic with killer views.

The oversized secure garage in the prime location for the complex provides not only room for at least two vehicles, but also a great deal of additional storage and/or workshop space.

Owner's Comments:
"We love our gracious, peaceful and private light-filled sanctuary that seems to hover above Glebe Park. We never tired of the view that changes year round, with Reid disappearing into the forest out of which the War Memorial appears like a temple. The floorplan is incredibly functional. No matter where fireworks are launched – NYE over Civic, Skyfire over the Lake - we have the very best of views and great parties. Sunsets over the Brindabellas from the pool were always special. The location means you have just the right amount of separation from Civic, with a short but beautiful walk through Glebe Park to the Canberra Centre without crossing any major roads."
