Some homes have a view, this one has a horizon. On level 10 of Sylvan Grove, at the highest point of Dunmore Terrace, the Brisbane River curls past the green of St Lucia and the city skyline rises in the distance. Mornings start with sun on the water, and evenings end with the city lights coming on below. Inside, a beautifully renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom skyhome covers 153sqm on a single level. It's for people who have earned the right to live a little higher and keep it simple.
Features Include:
• Level 10 penthouse with 153sqm of single-level living, a perfect downsizer opportunity
• Uninterrupted views across the Brisbane River, city skyline and St Lucia
• Fully refreshed, vacant and ready to welcome you home today
• Generous main retreat with walk-in robe, ensuite and private balcony
• Two further bedrooms for visiting family, grandchildren or a quiet study
• Two stylish bathrooms finished to a high standard
• Generous kitchen at the heart of open-plan living and dining
• Entertainer's balcony framing the river and city in one sweep
• Two secure car parks with lift access straight to your floor
• A boutique complex of just 41 apartments with on-site management, two lifts, a backup generator, resort-style pool, tennis court and residents' community room
Step out of the lift and the noise of the world falls away. Light pours through the living room, catching the river as it bends towards St Lucia. The skyline sits on the horizon like a painting that changes every hour. Recently refreshed, the finishes of this beautiful sky home have been done with care and a confident eye, so there's nothing left on the to-do list. Cook in a kitchen that faces the view, pour a glass of wine and wander out to the balcony, and you'll find yourself lingering there long after the sun goes down.
The layout is beautifully considered with living spaces that are open and sociable, and the bedrooms tucked away for privacy, a kind of separation you rarely find in new builds. The master suite feels like a private hotel room, with its own balcony for that first coffee of the day. Two more bedrooms mean there's always room when the family visits, and a study space for whatever comes next. Everything is on one level, secure and lock-and-leave. Head off on that long-planned trip knowing your home is in good hands with on-site management downstairs.
Sylvan Grove has long been one of Auchenflower's quiet achievers and tightly held blocks: just 41 apartments, mostly home to owner-occupiers who chose it for life rather than a lease. Neighbours know each other's names, and the friendly on-site manager keeps everything running like clockwork. Days here have an easy rhythm. Start with a morning swim in the sun-drenched pool, play a few sets on the full-size tennis court or bring the family together for a long lunch around the BBQ. As evening falls, the residents' community room offers another avenue to socialise, with its library and bar ready for a quiet read or a drink with friends. Two lifts, intercom security, plenty of visitor parking and a backup diesel generator take care of the practical side.
Perched high on Dunmore Terrace, Sylvan Grove has the best of the Inner West at its door. Have Sunday breakfast on Park Road, catch up with friends at the Regatta Hotel or do the weekly shop at Toowong Village. It's close location to the Wesley Hospital and Coronation Drive make it an easy access point to important local areas, while still being private and secure. The Brisbane River Walk is moments away for morning walks, and Wesley Hospital is a short stroll down the road. When the city calls, the CityCat, Auchenflower train station and local buses make it effortless, and the car stays in the garage.
