Positioned within one of Brisbane's most tightly held and historically significant residential addresses, this extraordinary residence in MacArthur Chambers delivers a level of renovation and finish rarely seen in the CBD apartment market. Set high on Level 8, this beautifully transformed 2 bedroom apartment combines timeless heritage character with the comfort and sophistication of a near new luxury fitout. With approximately $250,000 invested in renovations, every detail has been thoughtfully considered to create a home of substance, style and practicality. From the moment you enter, the rich herringbone oak flooring, soaring ceilings, decorative cornices and refined skirting boards establish an immediate sense of quality. The spacious living and dining zones are elegant yet welcoming, with electric sheer curtains opening at the touch of a button to reveal the added bonus of an outdoor balcony, a genuine rarity within MacArthur Chambers. The designer kitchen blends seamlessly into the apartment's heritage aesthetic, featuring stone finishes, plumbed double door fridge space, pantry storage, quality appliances, ceramic cooktop and retained original granite flooring that perfectly complements the overall design. Both bathrooms have been completely rebuilt to an exceptional standard, with an estimated $140,000 spent on these spaces alone. Floor-to-ceiling marble effect granite finishes (for ease of cleaning), frameless glass shower, premium tapware, backlit mirrors, sensor lighting and a deep soaking bath in the ensuite create a true hotel-style experience. The floorplan is as practical as it is beautiful, with two generous bedrooms, excellent storage, an additional powder room, concealed laundry, secure car accommodation, and a versatile open-plan office space ideal for those working from home. Residents also enjoy access to the recently refurbished pool and leisure area, adding further appeal to this landmark building. This is not simply another CBD apartment — it is a statement residence within one of Brisbane's most iconic heritage conversions, ready for its next proud owner.
