Superlatives are often used by real estate agents to exaggerate the positive aspects of a property but are rarely appropriate. The best, the highest, unique, water views, private, irreplaceable – they all apply here. This apartment is a one of a kind.

Northshore Tower is located on the Esplanade just north of the centre of Cairns City but far enough away for no noise and close enough to stroll to dozens of restaurants and cafes. Two penthouses occupy the entire 14th floor of the building with this having the preferred northerly corner.

Set over two sprawling floors the apartment occupies an impressive 438m2 of living area. The entry level is dominated by sitting, lounging and dining areas that all soak up what must be the best panorama in Cairns. Views stretch as far as the eye can see from the distant lights of Cairns International Airport to the north and Marina to the south.

Each of the four bedrooms enjoys an outlook that will never depreciate. Ocean and city are captured from every bedroom and can never be replaced. The master suite is a perfect antidote for a busy lifestyle – oversized and with sweeping views of almost 180 degrees, this is the aspect that separates the great apartments from the rest.

Inspired interiors have been created by Sydney Interior designer, David Anderson. Timeless furniture pieces, both custom and imported, give this space a truly luxurious feel. Custom made rugs from America sit harmoniously on the newly laid Full Gloss Coffee bamboo flooring.

Remarkable lighting from Italy enables the apartment to bath in a wave of subdued ambience.

Perhaps the most alluring aspect of this residence is the rooftop plunge pool and deck. Copper coloured glass mosaic tiles and a free standing waterfall cap what is without doubt Cairns best.
