Mahere Papa
Sustainability meets innovation in this high performance dual-level penthouse, atop the multi award-winning Ferrars & York development. Enabled by HIP V. HYPE, designed in collaboration with Six Degrees Architects and built by Ironside, this remarkable residence delivers enviable living steps from South Melbourne Market, cafes, bars, restaurants and the light rail. All-day light streams through the open-plan living and dining room, enhanced by the soaring 5m raked ceilings, reclaimed hardwood timber floors, and premium Swiss V-ZUG kitchen appliances with honed granite island and stainless steel benchtops.
A private northeast-facing terrace is a seamless extension of the living and dining spaces, offering panoramic views of the city skyline and market below. Living across two levels makes the apartment live larger, separating sound between living and bedrooms. The lower-level accommodation offers solace for the bedrooms, headlined by the master with a walk-in robe and ensuite, plus two additional robed bedrooms and a central light-filled bathroom.
This penthouse is highlighted by European tilt-and-turn windows, premium Australian made products, ducted heating/cooling, an Energy Recovery Ventilation system for a constant supply of fresh, filtered air, ceiling fan to living areas, remote controlled external blinds and a full sized laundry. The apartment achieves a high 7.8-star (out of 10) NatHERS energy rating and is powered by 100% renewable energy, creating a sanctuary of remarkably quiet and comfortable living all year round, together with significant cost savings on energy bills. With the communal roof yard garden, BBQ and open fire place, as well as secure parking fully provisioned for EV charging, mezzanine storage and bike parking, minutes from the CBD, Albert Park Village, the beach, celebrated restaurants, and leading schools.
