Spectacularly renovated to skilfully blend modern interiors with the preserved industrial structure, Unit 11 immediately impresses with its cathedral height vaulted ceilings and grand living space. A corrugated iron roof sits high above exposed timber beams, framed by original brick walls and dark accents throughout, creating a moody, yet welcoming ambience.
Upon entering, stairs immediately invite residents and guests to ascend toward the magnificent heart of the apartment, updated, while respecting its storied past. The home is centred around the open plan living area on the main level, cleverly illuminated by skylights above.
Additional rooms and bathrooms have been placed along the outer walls of the property, allowing them to enjoy the gorgeous views of the home's surroundings, each luminous space featuring unique accents such as exposed beams, pipes or machinery, reminiscent of the building's rich history.
The dark kitchen blends seamlessly into the space, with ample storage and preparation space, a thick stone bench top and a large window with a marvellous view. The laundry and linen storage is tucked away behind a floating VJ wall, creating a sense of separation from the living and dining area, as well as cleverly concealing the bathrooms on this level.
The third bedroom at the opposing end of the home overlooks the rooftop deck, with a captivating city aspect and a unique sense of privacy and serenity, exuding charm straight out of a movie scene!
A spiral staircase leads you to a lovely loft, perched above the rest of the apartment with panoramic views of the surrounding suburbs. A versatile and secluded space, here presented as an art studio, this room and adjacent walk-in robe can be utilised however you desire!
Thoughtfully transformed to provide modern day comfort and class, while respecting the rich heritage of the building, this warehouse conversion on the border of Paddington and the CBD is a rare chance to own a prized piece of the city's history!
Located just seconds from the Petrie Barracks, bustling Caxton Street and Suncorp Stadium, enjoy easy access to Brisbane's western suburbs, South Brisbane and the CBD via main roads and public transport, as well as a vibrant lifestyle on your doorstep!
