Floor plan
What are the pain points of apartment living? Car is usually far from home, travelling in elevators, no easy access downstairs, and you don't know your neighbours. I know this is a peculiar way to start an apartment ad, but please read on for a surprise.
The Jade complex (developed by POD Projects and built by Core Development) is a corner complex completed in 2021, with 174 dwellings. Apartment 101/2 Gribble is the only one with this unique floor plan.
Located on Level 1, this light-filled, 2-bedroom corner apartment enjoys both North and East light, letting you make the most of the space.
To access your new home, you have two options: the side-by-side car park, also on Level 1, just steps from your backdoor. No neighbourly chit-chat - just park, grab your keys, and head in. Alternatively, the front door is on Gribble Street. With a secure, reinforced door, friends and family don't need to buzz in (although you have that option). They can simply knock and come upstairs.
The apartment was originally bought to live in, and you can tell. With sheer curtains, thick material curtains on pulleys in the main area, and Watson Honeycomb blinds in the bedrooms, you can block out the light and the tree view from your bedroom when needed.
The main bedroom includes an ensuite tucked away behind a sliding door, and the shared bathroom is spacious enough for some dancing and singing in the shower (you only have one neighbour next to you, so go for it).
The laundry, located in the bathroom, features stone benchtops - no European-style setups here.
Extra storage near the kitchen complements the integrated cooling and heating system, with units in the living, dining, and kitchen areas, plus a separate unit in the main bedroom.
Speaking of the kitchen, it features a large stone island, double oven, and integrated microwave storage. The double oven is a delightful surprise, and with induction cooking, you'll be the chef of the neighbourhood.
If you're not in the mood to cook, your downstairs neighbour is a fantastic option. Skip UberEats and simply walk down to order from Asian Noodle House or Kebabs. Wait on your covered balcony, then go pick up your food just steps away. Boom? best neighbours ever!
A short walk away from Yerrabi Pond, you can come home after a brisk walk straight to your apartment with street access.
You won't find an apartment like this again. It's the perfect blend of low-maintenance apartment living and townhouse ease with convenient parking and access. A true gem that shouldn't be missed.
