'There's nothing quite like it in Canberra': Campbell penthouse in the sky is simply breathtaking

This penthouse epitomises style and space and never compromises.

701/71 Constitution Avenue is a four-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home in Campbell that offers the best of apartment and house living in a one-of-a-kind package.

“There’s nothing quite like it in Canberra. It is unique,” Bastion Property agent Antony Damiano says.

Occupying the entire top floor of the building with more than 300 sqm of internal space, the property is a true penthouse, which means privacy, views and an unbeatable lifestyle.

The home’s biggest draw is a private terrace featuring an outdoor entertaining area with a barbecue and outdoor kitchen, firepit, low-maintenance gardens and a private heated pool looking out to Lake Burley Griffin.

“The outdoor entertaining potential is limitless with 278 sqm of private terrace and the private pool. The terrace also has views of the National Library, the lake and, of course, Mt Ainslie,” Antony says.

The views are central to the home’s design.

“The panorama is breathtaking and constantly changes through the seasons, sunsets and sunrises – it is beautiful.”

With floor-to-ceiling windows, the views are brought to the forefront at every turn, while a large skylight brings more light into the north-facing open living space.

“The skylight is a really special part of the home. It makes the home so bright and welcoming,” Antony says.

“It’s rare for apartment living to introduce skylights. It just goes back to the fact that this is truly a home in the sky – without compromise.”

The living area connects seamlessly with the kitchen and allows for easy entertaining while also providing segregated spaces for privacy through thoughtful and aesthetically pleasing additions like the fireplace centrepiece.

“The space inside is fantastic. Everything is open while still giving you more intimate areas with the fireplace. You could easily host a function here with 100 people,” Antony says.

The quality and thoughtfulness of the entire penthouse are reflected in the kitchen with a timeless, sleek design centred around a stunning single slab natural stone benchtop.

“The kitchen, like the rest of the home, is custom designed and, of course, completely brand new. It’s just waiting for someone to move in,” Antony says.

A home chef will be thrilled at the kitchen’s features: Swedish V-Zug appliances, fully integrated fridges and a 170-bottle Vintec wine storage.

The designers went to great lengths to include the lifestyle features and amenities expected from a home of this calibre. Everything has been thought of.

“The property has a three-car garage with an additional car space, a private lobby entrance, and it occupies the entirety of the floor. The penthouse has all the best features of an apartment while being a private home in the sky,” Antony says.

Made with a family in mind, the home has four large bedrooms including a master with an ensuite and walk-in robe and a special guest room with an ensuite.

“There’s great potential here for a family. The master has beautiful views and a custom walk-in robe, and each of the other bedrooms is very special, too. The guest suite works perfectly for out-of-town visitors or older kids,” Antony says.

The location could not be better. Situated in the central suburb of Campbell, all the best of Canberra is within arm’s reach.

“It’s about five minutes to everywhere, which means great parks, the lake and national institutions. That’s to say nothing of the restaurants – the best of Canberra’s food scene is on your doorstep,” Antony says.

A penthouse like this coming on the market is exceptionally rare. Simply put, Canberra doesn’t have many homes like this, a stunning residence offering privacy, custom design, views to die for, and indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces with a private heated pool.

“There’s almost too much to talk about. You really have to see it to understand how special it is,” Antony says.
