Ease of living, a lovely balance of space and the warmth of natural materials are hallmarks of no. 45 Furzer, a home that engenders loving connection within a contemporary sensibility. Enriched by a creative design language that pays homage to the history of the site, the home forges connection with the past and embraces the modern urban. Open plan living flows to balcony and a consistent minimalist materiality contributes to a felt experience of sanctuary.

Cox architects and the Doma Group are the creatives behind the project that transformed the Alexander & Albemarle buildings from tired Government office buildings, into dynamic urban dwellings. The A&A extends plenty of spaces for connection or privacy - beautifully landscaped rooftop garden and sparkling pool, green courtyards, restaurants, gymnasium and brewery.

Light floods the open living, dining, kitchen via full height glass doors that extend the living space to alfresco dining with sweeping views. There is a layering of past and present via an honest expression of materials - off-form concrete panels to ceiling, feature raw brick wall, exposed piping - honouring the architectural language of the building's historical civic use. Lofty ceiling heights contribute to a feeling of space, while rich timber flooring flows underfoot and the neutral palette of white on white, a lovely canvas for meaningful objects, adds to the paired back aesthetic.

The sharp white kitchen sits beautifully along the exposed brick wall and features stone benchtops and splashback, Smeg appliances, soft touch cabinetry. Merging function and style the space is ideal for bringing people together - think, warm summer evenings, showing off your culinary skills…spilling to balcony, celebrating the pleasure of living, surrounded by family and friends.

Both bedrooms are restful spaces, with luxe carpet and ample built-in storage. The ensuite and family bathroom continue the narrative of chic, simplicity with sleek wall hung basins, expanses of white tiling and frameless, glass screened showers.

With double glazing to all windows and a six-star energy rating, there is a serious sustainable agenda. Other features of note are the internal laundry and remote access to single garage.

The A&A buildings are just minutes away from the buzzing restaurants and cafés of Phillip which is home to Westfield shopping centre and Hoyt's cinema. There is an array of health and fitness options at your doorstep, from yoga through to ice-skating. A multitude of independent restaurants, cafés and bars are a few steps away with local favourites including - Space Kitchen for amazing breakfasts and cakes, Eighty Six South restaurant and The Alby for a beverage or two and a game of pinball. Surrounded by green spaces including the nearby Red Hill Nature Reserve and with excellent access to transport and a variety of schools, the home also provides easy access to the wonderful restaurants and shops within the boutique suburbs of the inner south.
