With just one apartment per floor, St Lucia’s Waterford complex offers an indulgent rarity – expansive full level living across some 348m2 with panoramic river views, premier pontoon and pool facilities and a picturesque position in a truly superlative locale.

Built far out into the riparian, each apartment has been designed to maximise the views with a sprawling terrace projecting out significantly, directly towards the water. Not only does this bring a rare level of privacy but also an uninterrupted 180 degree panorama that encompasses two wide stretches of the river, parkland, Toowong and the CBD. Additionally, being on the fourth floor, this particular apartment enjoys an almost perfect elevation – high enough to elicit far-reaching views but close enough ensure a strong connection with all the goings on of the river.

Inside the building, an elegant lounge and reception area provides a fitting introduction to Waterford, with single level lift access opening directly into each apartment’s private foyer. In relation to level four, this sees marble flooring and grand proportions immediately set the tone. Upon entry, an expanse of open plan living brings the vast terrace and those river views instantly into focus, as well as allowing living, dining and entertaining to all be undertaken in one versatile and impressive space. If cosy seclusion is needed however, an adjacent television room offers just that, with the space able to be closed off or easily incorporated in with the rest of the floor plan. The granite-topped kitchen is also located unobtrusively nearby, with a comprehensive selection of Miele appliances delivering precision cooking.

Balconies envelop much of the apartment, ensuring a natural relationship between the interior and the outdoors. This also brings daylight and natural cross ventilation straight into nearly every room as well as providing direct outdoor access to spaces such as the laundry. Very much promoting the space and feel of a grand sky home, the floorplan allows for a good separation between the master suite and the remaining two rooms which have been positioned in a private wing. With one ensuited and one having its own bathroom, each room offers privacy along with generous proportions. The main bedroom meanwhile, boasts river views and balcony access along with its own ensuite (with waterfront spa bath) and walk-in wardrobe. Naturally, there is air-conditioning, an intercom system and security. There is also plentiful storage throughout and three secure car parks. This premier lifestyle is furthered by the complex’s superior shared facilities that include exclusive use of a 14m deep water mooring pontoon and pool.

Being so superbly positioned, the property is within easy walking distance of the University of Queensland, as well as shops, parkland and the ferry terminal which gives easy access along the river in both directions with the CBD just two stops away. Indulgent and expansive with panoramic river views, this is a rare opportunity to experience prestigious waterfront living in a truly superlative locale.
