'Best-outfitted apartments ever offered': London-inspired development slated for Wright

If Monopoly has taught us one thing, it’s that Mayfair in London is the hot property.

But what you might not know is that the premier street of this exclusive district is Curzon Street, and it’s one of the most affluent stretches of road in the city.

Apart from featuring in many a British novel, it was Curzon Street that provided the vision for Wright’s new development, the Curzon Apartments.

Designed by Cox Architecture and built by Mayfair Homes, the complex offers a total of 78 one and two-bedroom apartments with around 30 still available for purchase.

“The names Mayfair and Curzon are synonymous with quality and give potential buyers a taste of what is on offer,” says agents Tim and Justine Burke of Luton Properties Weston Creek and Molonglo Valley.

“It’s a boutique, high-end development at the gateway to the Molonglo. Once completed they will be the best-outfitted apartments ever offered in the area.”

The apartments themselves have been thoughtfully designed to ensure each is equipped for modern-day living. This includes features like keyless entry, quality finishes and multi-function rooms that maximise on space.

“When selecting their apartment, buyers can choose what is most important to them; whether that be aspect, outlook, floor space or balcony space – there are endless options with 12 floor plans to choose from,” Tim says.

Two interior colour schemes are also available – Urban and Nature – both of which are a stylish blend of contemporary paired-back tones mixed with intricate textures like Herringbone tiling.

“Anyone who has ever delved into apartment living before will understand that it’s the considered details that make all the difference, and that’s what we’ve tried to achieve with the Curzon Apartments,” Justine says.

“For example, to ensure residents can fully enjoy their outdoor space, all airconditioning units are located on the roof, allowing more useable space outdoors and no noise from the units.”

But while these homes are as luxurious as the British street they’re named after, what’s notably different is their connection to the Australian outdoors.

Each balcony offers vistas over the Molonglo Valley and the bush capital beyond. Not only are they a great place to sip a coffee, enjoy a meal or read a good book, they’re also a point from which you can scope out exhilarating weekends among the surrounding landscape.

Mountain bike tracks, scenic hiking trails and the nearby nature reserves are sure to entice plenty of outdoor activity. And when the day is done, the Curzon’s lush green barbecue area is an inviting spot for an easy dinner before heading back home.

Expected completion is May 2020.
