The Opportunity
Sitting above the city skyline within what will be one of Melbourne’s truly landmark buildings, this visionary residence has been created through the collaboration of a renowned design team who have had an instrumental impact on the evolution of Melbourne’s luxury apartment market.
Originally configured as three apartments, the property has progressed through a fully documented, customised redesign to comprise an expansive three bedroom plus study sub-penthouse. The entry foyer extends to a formal lounge with aspect across the CBD skyline, featuring a fireplace, built-in bar and glass enclosed wine cellar, transitioning to an expansive kitchen, dining and informal living area with customised cabinetry and herringbone timber flooring enveloped by full height glazing. The kitchen is complemented by a fully appointed scullery/butlers kitchen with a full suite of Miele appliances.
An impeccably designed master suite adjoins the entry foyer, absorbing premium views across the CBD skyline, Melbourne’s renowned eastern suburbs and distant Dandenong Ranges, whilst the family wing occupies the western façade, intelligently separated from the master suite and living spaces and incorporating a second bedroom with walk-in-robe and ensuite, third bedroom, full sized laundry with drying cupboards, and central bathroom.
The residence is complemented by six car spaces and expansive private storage.
The Building
Curated under the collaboration of Fender Katsalidis and Cox Architects, Sapphire by the Gardens will be a landmark mixed-use precinct redevelopment hosting exceptional retail, lifestyle and restaurant amenity, together with Melbourne’s first Shangri-La Hotel. The building will comprise two towers connected at the lower levels by a highly sculpted podium, and at level 46 by a spectacular skybridge, and represent one of Melbourne’s most remarkable architectural statements.
The Precinct
Positioned at the prime northern edge of CBD, experience a globally influenced inner-city lifestyle with immediate access to the very best of Melbourne’s renowned liveability, including the UNESCO World Heritage listed Carlton Gardens, theatre and arts precincts, galleries, high-end retail, restaurants and education precinct that define Melbourne’s world recognised lifestyle and support its calendar of festivals, sporting and cultural events.
