1203/20 Festival Place, Newstead
Listing data updated 13 July 2026
A true one-of-one within the award-winning Luminare, Apartment 1203 brings together one of the building's most tightly held two-bedroom layouts with an extraordinary level of custom detail, technology and lifestyle amenity. Extensively upgraded with the ultimate home luxuries and inclusions, it is offered as a residence unlike anything else in the building. Designed for effortless living, the apartment opens into a beautifully considered open-plan living and dining area, where floor-to-ceiling glazing draws in natural light and creates a seamless connection to the wintergarden balcony beyond. The kitchen is refined, practical and quietly luxurious, appointed with stone benchtops, a generous breakfast bar, full-height joinery, integrated fridge/freezer, integrated dishwasher and premium Miele appliances. Further elevated by an upgraded granite composite sink, premium mixer tap, insinkerator and Buster + Punch feature lighting, the space feels tailored for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Flowing from the main living zone, the wintergarden balcony extends the apartment's sense of space and versatility. Designed as a true indoor-outdoor extension, it is enhanced by a Weber Genesis outdoor kitchen, made-to-measure wall-mounted outdoor bar bench with integrated fire pit, ceiling fan, and a striking green wall. Whether used for morning coffee, evening drinks or relaxed entertaining, this space delivers a rare level of lifestyle amenity within an apartment setting. Throughout the residence, a series of custom upgrades create a level of finish rarely found in comparable apartments. A CTech Mirror smart home system, compatible with Apple HomeKit, integrates modern convenience into daily life, while Sonos in-ceiling audio to the living room, bathroom and balcony allows the home to shift seamlessly from calm retreat to entertaining space. Buster + Punch door hardware throughout and a Schlage electronic door lock further reinforce the apartment's considered, design-led edge. The primary bedroom has been transformed into a bespoke private retreat, featuring a custom floor-to-ceiling upholstered headboard and bed base, complemented by custom bedside tables with integrated wireless phone charging. Mirrored joinery adds both polish and practicality, with dedicated storage for fragrances, jewellery and eight integrated watch winders. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned, complete with built-in storage and direct access to the bathroom, offering flexibility for guests, children, a home office or a more private secondary suite. The bathroom is finished with double mirrored vanity cabinetry, generous shelving and the added comfort of integrated Sonos audio. Storage has been thoughtfully maximised throughout, with full-height joinery, generous pantry space, linen and broom cupboards, as well as a refit laundry with enhanced linen storage. A Miele washer and dryer are also included with the apartment, adding further ease to the everyday function of the home. Perfectly positioned above the Long Island Precinct and moments from the Teneriffe River Walk, Gasworks and Newstead's most established dining and lifestyle destinations, Luminare offers a lifestyle defined by design, convenience and connection. Supported by Cavalé's professional on-site property management team, residents benefit from a seamless level of service and lifestyle enhancements designed to make day-to-day living as effortless as possible.
