Apartment 2C (aka 203) / 3 Plimmers Steps
This immaculate two-bedroom penthouse on an iconic site next to a 175-year-old oak tree offers an extraordinary inner-city lifestyle just minutes from everything that makes downtown living so dynamic. Exquisitely refurbished throughout, complete with a supremely-appointed kitchen, it's one of only five apartments in the Plimmer Emporium - and the only one with its own remarkable rooftop space. This 200sqm (approx) haven of outdoor living in the heart of the Golden Mile lends itself to everything from entertaining and recreation to a super-sized roof garden set amid towering high-rises and vibrant cityscapes. It overlooks "Plimmer's Oak", the landmark that entrepreneurial settler John Plimmer planted in 1850, and is on the second floor of an equally historic building that opened in 1917 as the Rutland Private Hotel.
Wellington architects as notable as Sir Ian Athfield and Sir Roger Walker contributed to its redevelopment, which in the 1970s included such celebrated institutions as Slack Alice nightclub and Toad Hall restaurant. The heritage status of the wedge-shaped building is reflected in the penthouse's captivating character, which blends Edwardian hallmarks, like high ceilings and sash windows, with contemporary sophistication, comfort and functionality.
The centrepiece of the open-plan interior is an entertainers' kitchen fit for any chef, from the premium Bosch appliances and custom cabinetry in birchwood ply to the lustrous Italian floor tiles and checkered stainless steel island with strip lighting. Where better to entertain guests amid the plushness of new carpet, the warmth of European-style heating, and the ambience of adjustable gallery-style lighting that can be dimmed to spotlight the art with which you'll want to grace the expansive wall space. And for the ultimate in luxury, there's an opulent bathroom that would rival any resort's, with its Grohe tapware, rainhead shower and floating vanity with washplane sinks. It also has underfloor heating and de-mister mirrors while the penthouse's ventilation system optimises filtered ambient air throughout.
The boutique character of this low-rise complex means there's no need for a lift, hence a body corporate fee that's surprisingly low given this apartment offers so much more than you would expect, from the full-size kitchen to the exclusive rooftop bonus. This truly is a penthouse with a point of difference in a location that couldn't be more central if proximity to the CBD, waterfront and Parliament are paramount.
