<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developments/broadbeach-qld-4218">Broadbeach</a> offers plenty of reasons to live vertically, but moving from a substantial family home into an apartment can expose the compromises of high-density living. Privacy, room for guests and usable living space tend to matter more when an apartment is intended as a permanent home rather than an occasional coastal base.

A typical residential floor at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/the-eveleigh-broadbeach-7-9-surf-parade-broadbeach-qld-4218">The Eveleigh</a>, on Surf Parade,&nbsp;contains just four apartments. The 94-residence development by <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/hirsch-faigen">Hirsch &amp; Faigen</a> is predominantly made up of expansive three-bedroom homes, with a limited collection of half-floor penthouses above.

Across the apartment floors, <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/architects/rothelowman">Rothelowman</a> has used the relatively limited number of residences to give each home greater access to natural light and outlook. Living spaces extend towards full-height glazing, while a series of bay windows frame selected views across the Pacific Ocean, city and hinterland rather than treating the building edge as a continuous wall of glass.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360965]

“The apartment floors deliver a collection of homes that embrace controlled outlook via a series of bay windows deliberately framing moments of view,” Rothelowman Director Kim Lowman said.

From outside, those projecting forms contribute to the tower’s faceted profile. Strong horizontal and vertical elements establish its proportions, while the changing position of the sun alters the light, shadow and reflection across the façade throughout the day.

The same attention moves inside the apartments, where the material palette combines warm timber, natural stone, metallic detailing and softer curved forms. Kitchens sit within the main living zone, with stone island benches, integrated joinery and European appliances, before the living areas extend towards the glazing and the outlook.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360981]

Three genuine bedrooms provide room to accommodate family and guests, while two secure car spaces and storage address some of the practical considerations that can become more noticeable when moving from a larger home. Feedback from the display suite has centred on the warmth and restraint of the interiors, with buyers commenting that the residences feel like homes rather than conventional coastal apartments.

A limited collection of half-floor penthouses occupies the upper levels, increasing the scale of the living spaces and adding private balconies and elevated finishes. From this position, the outlook extends between the ocean and hinterland.

Outside the private residences, The Eveleigh separates its shared spaces between the podium and rooftop. The podium is centred on wellness, with subtropical landscaping surrounding a swimming pool and pool terrace, yoga garden, private gymnasium, sauna and hot and cold plunge facilities. Landscaped retreats and pavilions provide additional places to sit away from the main recreation areas.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360966]

Higher in the building, a rooftop pavilion and private dining suite sit alongside resident lounge, barbecue and outdoor dining areas, opening towards panoramic views across the ocean, city and hinterland.

“Buyers are no longer just looking for an apartment, but a lifestyle where they can relax, reset, and enjoy a balanced way of living,” Hirsch &amp; Faigen Director of Sales Matt George said.

Interest to date has come from established owner-occupiers and interstate lifestyle purchasers, including buyers planning a future move to the Gold Coast. Many are coming from larger homes and want to reduce ongoing maintenance without giving up space for family and guests, privacy, two car spaces or the ability to entertain at home.

&nbsp;

[smartcode_project:default project_id=149670 project_image_fid=360969]

Much of that daily life can also take place beyond the building without requiring a drive. Kurrawa Beach and Pratten Park are an easy walk from Surf Parade, while Pacific Fair, Oracle Boulevard, The Oasis, restaurants, cafés, entertainment and public transport are also within walking distance.

The Eveleigh is Hirsch &amp; Faigen's fourth Gold Coast development since entering the market in 2021, following The Hemingway at Palm Beach, The Emerson at Kirra and Yves at Mermaid Beach. Each of the preceding projects sold out before completion.

“Broadbeach had been on our radar throughout our time operating on the Gold Coast,” the developer said. “Following our projects in Palm Beach, Kirra and Mermaid Beach, Broadbeach represented the natural next step for the business.”

The Surf Parade site brought together proximity to the beach, protected coastal outlooks and walkability to dining, shopping and recreation. Hirsch &amp; Faigen also identified the street as an emerging premium residential address, with enough separation from Broadbeach's busier destinations to retain a quieter environment at home.

The Eveleigh is now under construction by Maxcon, with completion forecast for mid-2028. Three-bedroom residences are currently available from $2.87 million.

The Eveleigh brings house-like apartments to Broadbeach

A long-stalled Campbelltown development site is back in play, with new plans for 139 apartments set to supersede a mixed-use scheme approved almost a decade ago but never built.

The new proposal for 28 Cordeaux Street would deliver 116 market and 23 affordable apartments in a part 14-storey building, bringing a substantial new project into a Campbelltown market where new apartment supply remains limited.

Plans have been filed over the 3,092 sqm corner site at Moore-Oxley Street, around 600 metres from Campbelltown Railway Station and the city-centre retail core.

The site already carries a mixed-use residential approval dating to 2016. Doroch Architects has now been engaged on a larger replacement scheme, which is progressing as a State Significant Development Application following a Housing Delivery Authority determination in August 2025.

The apartment mix comprises 39 one-bedroom, 72 two-bedroom and 28 three-bedroom residences. Two-bedroom apartments make up just over half of the project, while three-bedroom homes account for 20 per cent.

<img alt="First look: New 139-apartment plans revive long-stalled Campbelltown city centre site" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="136dd5b9-3791-4da6-9e31-76f533f5b4de" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Campbelltown%20da2.png?VersionId=LgOSy9nwf5u.MGswBBwaGGxuX8QpHSl_" />

Of the 139 apartments, 23 will be delivered as affordable housing under the in-fill affordable housing provisions of the Housing SEPP. The affordable component represents 15 per cent of the residential gross floor area and will be managed by a registered Community Housing Provider.

Doroch has sought to break the scale of the building into two distinct elements, with a masonry podium of around four storeys establishing the street edge before the residential tower steps back above.

The corner position has shaped that approach. Cordeaux Street faces toward the commercial and civic centre, while Moore-Oxley Street leads into the lower-scale residential neighbourhood to the south, and the design verification report describes the site as "bridging the commercial core to the north and established residential areas to the south."

The podium will be expressed predominantly in face brick, while the upper levels shift to brushed and grooved concrete cladding with darker metal detailing. Recessed sections, deep balcony edges and landscaping break down the upper form, with an approximately 11.8-metre setback to the northern boundary addressing the adjoining St Peters Anglican School.

Campbelltown has been starved of new residential developments in the last decade.

The only other notable development set to come to market this year is ALAND's Queen Square, a mixed-use precinct on over two hectares that will comprise apartments above a vibrant ground-level retail and hospitality dining precinct.

First Look: Sherlock Construction pitches apartments for low-rise Deception Bay

Queensland builder-developer MAYD has revealed the first look at its major North Kirra beachfront development, lodging amended plans that reduce the number of apartments and increase the proportion of larger residences.

The project is planned across a substantial 4,742 sqm amalgamated site spanning seven lots at <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/2-6-pacific-parade-bilinga-qld-4225">2-6 Pacific Parade</a> and 27-33 Golden Four Drive in Bilin​ga, directly opposite Nor​th Kirra Beach.

<a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/developers/mayd-group">MAYD</a> secured the site for $32.5 million in 2025, in what was one of the Gold Coast's largest property transactions of the year.

The development will be delivered across two stages, with the first stage carrying an estimated gross realisation value of around $360 million.

The latest amendments seek to reduce the overall apartment count and shift the project further toward the owner-occupier market, with larger residences designed for buyers wanting considerably more space than traditionally offered in a beachfront apartment.

The residential mix will include townhomes, oversized two-bedroom apartments, substantial three-bedroom residences and four-bedroom homes.

MAYD has appointed Cera Stribley to lead the architecture and interiors, with the Melbourne-based design practice drawing on the beachfront setting through a series of ocean-facing terraces and heavily landscaped balconies.

Strong horizontal forms and curved balconies will define the exterior, with subtropical landscaping integrated throughout the building to soften the built form and increase the connection between the residences and the beachfront.

The project will also include an extensive collection of resident wellness and lifestyle facilities, continuing the broader shift across the Gold Coast's luxury apartment market toward larger homes supported by resort-style amenity.

<img alt="MAYD" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="d1bcbb05-e659-4b47-8bd4-1e595315e2ad" src="https://s3.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/www.urban.com.au/s3fs-public/inline-images/Screenshot%202026-08-27%20at%202.05.03%E2%80%AFPM.png?VersionId=jj0XEud1X1DuLt7_KyElhjMdZGOXmLHP" />

MAYD Founder Todd Mould said North Kirra was increasingly appealing to buyers attracted to the more established, lower-density character of the southern Gold Coast.

"North Kirra presents one of the most compelling luxury residential opportunities currently emerging in Australia, combining absolute beachfront with the character and authenticity that buyers are increasingly seeking, and the same sense of tight-knit community that defined Burleigh and Currumbin perhaps 10 or 15 years ago," Mould said.

"With Gold Coast Airport on its doorstep, it also offers a level of accessibility that broadens its appeal across almost every market demographic."

The project comes as the southern Gold Coast continues to attract an increasing share of high-end apartment development and buyer activity.

Kirra in particular has emerged as one of the region's more tightly held beachfront markets, with its relatively low-density character, established surf and hospitality scene and proximity to Gold Coast Airport differentiating it from the higher-density markets further north.

Mould said those characteristics had informed the approach MAYD and Cera Stribley had taken to the project.

"We've worked closely with Cera Stribley to create a vision that is deeply connected to its surroundings," he said.

"Inspired by the coastline itself, the architecture has been shaped around space, privacy and resort-style living, creating a collection of homes that reflects the next generation of luxury on the southern Gold Coast."

MOTIV Managing Director Carly Cottam, who has been appointed to market the project, said buyer attention had continued to move south along the Gold Coast.

"Purchasers who may once have defaulted to Broadbeach, Main Beach or Surfers Paradise are increasingly recognising the value of a genuine beachfront location that offers lower density, strong amenity and a more established sense of community," Cottam said.

"Kirra has a powerful combination of growing demand and genuine scarcity. Beachfront supply is inherently constrained, the area remains relatively low density, and buyers are increasingly placing a premium on locations that feel established, uncrowded and authentic rather than heavily developed."

Cottam said the proximity to Gold Coast Airport was also proving increasingly important for interstate and second-home buyers.

"Being minutes from Gold Coast Airport makes it particularly compelling for interstate buyers, frequent travellers and second-home purchasers who can access an authentic coastal lifestyle almost immediately after stepping off a flight."

The acquisition takes MAYD's active development portfolio to more than $500 million, with the North Kirra project representing one of its largest undertakings to date.

MAYD is targeting an early 2027 launch.

First look at MAYD's North Kirra mixed-use precinct

<main data-perf-region="main">
Castle Hill, the longtime hub of the Hills District, has been one of the major beneficiaries of Sydney's Metro expansion, with improved connectivity helping drive continued population growth, development and buyer demand across the Hills District.

But despite that growth, the suburb has seen relatively few major new apartment projects brought to market over the past 18 months.

Hills District developer Reve Group is looking to fill that gap with <a href="https://www.apartments.com.au/new-apartments/nova-r-ve-castle-hill-2-garthowen-crescent-castle-hill-nsw-2154">Nova Rêve</a>, a major new mixed-use precinct on the corner of Garthowen Crescent and Old Castle Hill Road, a short walk from Castle Hill Metro Station and Castle Towers.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377679]

The project will comprise three residential towers alongside a hotel, restaurants, cafes and a skybar, more than 1,600 sqm of ground-floor retail and almost an acre of landscaped gardens.

It represents the largest project undertaken by Reve Group, the development arm of the Kassis family, which has been building across the Hills District for more than 30 years through Kassis Homes.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377675]

Nova Rêve also represents a significant step up from the family's first apartment development, Grand Rêve, which was delivered nearby on Garthowen Crescent.

Grand Rêve introduced larger, house-like apartment layouts and premium inclusions including Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances to the Castle Hill market.

Nova Rêve takes that approach to a precinct scale, combining the residential component with hospitality, retail and substantial public and resident landscaping.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377685]

Reve Group Managing Director Sam Kassis said the project reflected the family's three decades of building in the Hills, which has evolved from trophy homes on quarter-acre blocks to larger-scale apartment development.

"Grand Rêve was our first apartment project here and it showed us what this pocket of Castle Hill could be. Nova Rêve is the refinement of that idea: not just apartments, but a place the whole suburb can use," Kassis said.

A key part of that approach is the hotel, which has been designed to operate as an amenity for the wider Castle Hill community rather than solely hotel guests.

It will include restaurants, cafes, skybars and all-day dining, alongside conference and event facilities catering to business functions, community groups and private events.

At ground level, more than 1,600 sqm of shops and cafes will open onto the surrounding streets and landscaped areas.

Almost an acre of gardens designed by Land and Form Studios will run through the precinct, incorporating pathways, seating, barbecue areas and children's play spaces.

[smartcode_project:default project_id=152737 project_image_fid=377680]

Reve Group's Romio Georges said creating an active ground plane had been central to the planning of Nova Rêve.

"There are gardens with pathways, barbecues, seating and play areas, shops and cafes opening onto the street, and a hotel with restaurants and a skybar that anyone in Castle Hill can walk into," Georges said.

The project's elevated position on one of Sydney's highest ridgelines will also provide apartments with outlooks toward the Sydney skyline, surrounding parkland and the Blue Mountains.

More than 80 per cent of the apartments will occupy corner positions, with Turner responsible for both the architecture and interiors.

The former Bachelor contestant Bec Chin and her fiancé Dean Vicelich are on the move.
Their Wentworth Point apartment, with water glimpses, has been listed for August 18 auction.
McGrath Concord agent Ania Aquino has listed the home as the couple, who will marry in September, are off to Chipping Norton.
The dietitian was in the 2015 series where Sam Wood chose Snezana Markoski in the show’s finale over runner-up Lana Jeavon-Fellows.
Sydney Confidential wrote Chin was fairly quiet on the Channel 10 reality dating show which was filmed at the historic Fernhill Estate at Mulgoa.
Dean Vicelich, a former rugby league player in the NSW Cup grade, and Chin have a baby, Savannah Rose born last December.
He is a director at Smart Property Projects, a building and refurbishment company specialising in healthcare projects.

There is a $720,000 price guide for their well-appointed apartment which occupies a private corner in the Lipari block.
It also has a rare oversized study.
With fresh paint and new carpet, it enjoys an outlook over a landscaped courtyard in the pet friendly block.
There is a residents' only pool plus proximity to the Pulse Gym.

The former Foxtel chief executive Richard Freudenstein and his wife Jane have stayed on the Mosman property merry-go-round.
Having sold their mansion for around $23 million, and setting a then record for the suburb, the couple have snapped up the Stenmark family home, Cardross.
It was where Australia's hottest twin modelling exports, Zac and Jordan Stenmark grew up.
Matriarch, Susie Stenmark, a former model herself, and her husband, successful marketing businessman Damien Stenmark accepted a bullish pre-auction $11 million offer through Brendan Warner at Raine &amp; Horne.
It had been bought in 1998 when the twins were six for $2.65 million.

As the scaffolding comes down from St Kilda's Gatwick Hotel, the location of next month's series of The Block, its executive producer Julian Cress has formally cut ties with Sydney.
The buyer of his redundant Annandale warehouse paid a record $4,275,000 through McGrath agent Damien West.
The space, which failed to sell at its March auction, had come with a price guide of $4.5 million.
Cress inherited the Johnstone Lane warehouse from his late father, the Archibald award-winning artist Fred Cress.
The prior top price for a converted warehouse in Annandale sat with the $3.7 million paid last June by fellow artist Jonathan Newton, the son of Britain’s Gravity Media Group boss John Newton.
Julian Cress commissioned architect Julian Brenchley and Block designer Darren Palmer to undertake the recent conversion which was recognised with the 2015 MBA's Excellence in Housing Award.
Set at the end of a laneway, the home has four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a ground floor gallery.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2018/7/30/annandale%202.jpeg" alt="">
The warehouse features polished concrete, exposed brick and soaring ceilings, interlaced with exposed steel and timber trusses.
There's an open plan upper level integrated with a private rooftop terrace.
Cress and wife Sarah have been based in Albert Park after The Block became more permanently based in Melbourne.
Over the years Cress became critical of nitpicking Sydney council approvals in his pursuit of development sites for the top rating Channel 9 show.
He has been executive producer of the hit show since its first series in 2003 where they launched with its renovation a block of apartments in Bondi.
<img src="https://www.urban.com.au/images/2018/7/30/annandale%203.jpeg" alt="">
Cress sold to Andrew Parker, the Qantas executive for government, industry and international affairs, who also was a board member of Australians for Equality during the gay marriage debate. 
Parker recently sold his Potts Point apartment to Tom Dery, the former worldwide chairman of ad agency M&amp;C Saatchi, for $4.55 million.
The purchase comes after Dery sold his luxury 1890s Paddington home for $5.1 million late last year.

Adman Terry Savage, the recently departed long-time chairman of the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity, has bought at Newport.
Savage and his partner Cheryl Wannell, who is the CEO of the festival, have paid $3.85 million for a brand new home on Pittwater.
The couple sold their luxury six bedroom Bayview home for $5.75 million. 
Their new purchase, constructed by a local master builder, spans three levels and has five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a study.
It sits in landscaped gardens with established plantings that run down to the water where there's a boatshed, slipway and deep water pontoon.
LJ Hooker Mona Vale agent Josephine Cowling sold the home.
Savage has been associated with Cannes Lions, formerly known as the international advertising festival, for over three decades.
He became the CEO in 2003 after starting as the festivals Australian representative. He became the chairman soon after and was previously the executive chairman of cinema advertising firm Val Morgan.

The London-based Aussie John Symond has sold an investment apartment for $7.25 million.
The Elizabeth Bay apartment was bought in 2015 for $6,125,000, reflecting 4.5% annual price growth during the near four year ownership by the retired mortgagee broking pioneer.
It was apparently superflouous to his needs, not a reaction to the declining market sentiment.
The three bedroom, three bathroom apartment had been a $3,900 a week rental after its 2015 acquisition. 
Symond retains two other apartments in the boutique complex.
His fashion designer daughter Deborah Symond who recently married Ned O’Neil, son of property developer Denis O’Neil lives in the complex. His Knightsbridge, London-based son, Stephen has the complex as his Australian bolthole.
Developed by the Hindmarsh Group, the complex, which comes with park and harbour views, is a six-level development, designed by PTW Architects' Andrew Andersons, and marketed as featuring interiors by Freedman Rembel.
Its flooring was a mix of timber, stone and carpet with fireplaces in the living rooms.
It is not the only investment property he's sold recrntly.
The other was a $13.5 million Point Piper penthouse, near his own home on Sydney Harbour, which was renovated after it cost $8.2 million when bought from Nati Stoliar. It was briefly a $5000 a week rental.
Last year he opted out of selling his Point Piper mansion despite an offer of more than $100 million. 
Wingadal, his Point Piper trophy home set on 2685 square metres, quickly piqued the interest of buyers, but its listing came with no compelling need to sell.
The copper-capped roofed and sandstone skirted home, once nicknamed Aussie Stadium, has a floor space of 2200 square metres over four levels.
The six bedroom home, all with ensuites, features two swimming pools, and 75 metres of absolute waterfrontage.
He married Amber McDonald at the home in early 2016.
On turning 70, he decided spend a bit more time in London with easy access to Hasna, a luxury 73 metre yacht on the Mediterranean. 
His superyacht was nominated in this year's Boat International Media World Superyacht Awards.
Symond previously lived in a Walsh Bay penthouse which sold for a record $16 million in 2006.
In 2016 the then Aussie Home Loans executive chairman John Symond suggested interest rates could remain low for a decade.
"I'm not saying it won't go up, but we won't see 6 to 7% interest rates for a decade plus," he suggested.

The charmingly blunt property guru Andrew Winter has been busy reshuffling his investment property portfolio.
The longtime host of Selling Houses Australia, who also presents the Love It Or List It Australia series, has bought two southeast Queensland properties while selling another.
His building block on Brisbane’s outskirts has quickly gone under contract. 
The vacant 1100sq m <a href="https://www.realestate.com.au/property-residential%20land-qld-ipswich-202166850" target="_blank">Ipswich market</a> holding (pictured above) that cost $285,000 in late-2016, came with a price guide of $375,000 to $400,000 through Ray White agent Lisa Gill.
The official site value is $197,500 although the parcel has development approval for five, three-bedroom townhouses.
Winter and his wife Caroline have recently bought a $485,000 Paradise Waters, Gold Coast, investment house and a Portside Wharf apartment in Brisbane’s Hamilton that cost $255,000.
Just a year ago the Winters bought a $1.9 million Gold Coast home and, in between a busy filming schedule, they renovated the riverfront Tuscan-inspired five-bedroom house.
It appeared to be a savvy buy for the recent Gold Logie nominee since the Sanctuary Cove home had traded at $1.6 million 13 years ago.
The couple, along with their two daughters, Daisy and Mia, and two dogs, Louis and Scooter, resided just across the road from their renovation project.
The redundant home sold for $1.2 million, having been bought at $975,000 in 2015. It, too, had been bought well as the home had traded at $1,025,000 in 2004.
Winter believes homeowners often face a stay-or-go dilemma. “We’ve all been there,” he suggests.
It was 2006 when he decided to call the Gold Coast home after more than 20 years in real estate in the UK. His job had morphed into presenting one of the most popular television programs across the UK and Europe. His work on the show also offered visits to Australia, which was where Caroline’s parents resided.
Earlier this year Winter was rushed to Gold Coast University Hospital where he was diagnosed with Bell’s palsy, a condition that affects facial nerves and muscle control, from which he has recovered.

Tim Cahill's next move is a step closer after the veteran Socceroo's Melbourne home sold, five weeks after its listing.
The Sydney-born midfielder, and Australia's highest ever goal scorer, is quitting Lower Plenty with a move to the United States mooted with wife Rebekah and the couple's four children.
Cahill says he may continue playing club football outside Australia after retiring from national duties with the Socceroos.
His Lower Plenty home was bought in 2016 after joining Melbourne City on his return from China where he played for Greenland Shenhua, owned by the giant property group Greenland.
Paying $2,775,000, he was seeking offers of between $3.5 million and $3.85 million.
It is understood the sale to a Brighton family was at the lower end of the price guidance.
It had been renovated by his interior designer wife Rebekah.
He seems set to retain the family's hobby farm in the Byron Bay hinterland which cost $1.7 million last year.
<div>Cahill, who previously owned a Caringbah South waterfront which sold for $5.7 million in 2015, still owns a Horningsea Park property in Sydney’s west which was bought with the family in 1999 for $260,000.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>ESPN reported he owns a house in New Jersey, just outside of New York which was bought when he played for the Red Bulls.

The modernised New Farm home of Cordell and Justine Khoury, the owners of Brisbane's popular Italian restaurant Beccofino and Julius Pizzeria, has been listed for sale.
After paying $895,000 in 2013, the couple commissioned Chris Brumby of Big House Little House to transform the 1940s Queenslander into a contemporary family home.
Maintaining its classical features but with a completely new facade, the two level home now has four bedrooms and a rooftop terrace.
The outdoor entertaining area with wood-fired pizza oven overlooks the swimming pool.
Ray White New Farm agents Matt Lancashire and Tom Lyne have an August 18 auction.
Cordell, a professional chef, opened Beccofino in Teneriffe in 2004, with Julius Pizzeria in South Brisbane opening four years ago beneath Aria’s new Austin development.
Earlier this year Justine opened a new vegan cafe Dicki's in New Farm with her two siblings, naming it after their late father.
They converted a 1950s garage to create the space.
It is set to go under the hammer on 18 August.

The Mosman-based Lyn Cobley, Westpac's most senior corporate and institutional banker, has bought in Cremorne.
She has spent $1.9 million on a three bedroom, two bathroom investment Beau Monde apartment, which was quickly leased at $1100 a week, reflecting a tight three percent annual rental yield. 
Renovated throughout since last traded for $420,000 in 2004, the apartment spans 170 square metres, with two large balconies extending from a bedroom and the open plan living, kitchen and dining area.
