Chandler Lakeside Apartment is a fully renovated, beautifully designed and carefully furnished apartment that offers vast lakeside views. Enjoy the extensive private balcony, perfect for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing at sunset. It is on the third floor of a three story block.

The apartment offers full reverse cycle ducted air-conditioning. Remote controlled blinds across all windows welcome the view and optically treated glass provide comfort all year round. A centralised smart home system controls lights and audiovisual with an easy all off function. High speed internet (26Mbps) allows seamless access.

The kitchen includes task lighting, modern storage, full cooktop and oven and a built-in fridge and dishwasher. Dishwasher tablets are under the sink. The alcove features a microwave, toaster, kettle and coffee machine. Beans available for guest use.
LIVING & DINING ROOM
Fifties style parker sofas create spacious and comfortable seating while the original restored fifties dining table seats six, over-hung with dimmable pendants. The dining table can be used as a workspace if needed and double sliding doors open on to the balcony. Large shelves contain Riedel glassware, a wide range of historic books and games.
THE BEDROOM
The bedroom includes queen bed with a premium mattress and a range of pillow types and a large built in mirrored wardrobe. Elegant twin sconces deliver dimmable light to suit all users. A second bedroom is locked for host storage and cleaning supplies.
THE BATHROOM
A generous new bathroom includes a frameless glass shower stall with a double shower head and unique feature tiles. The vanity mirror's automated lighting allows for use as night light. Luscious new towels are provided together with body wash, shampoo and conditioner. Sliding doors in the bathroom open to a Eurostyle laundry that includes a modern washing machine, a dryer and laundry sink, a vacuum cleaner, iron and ironing board.
THE BALCONY
The expansive lake views guarantees enjoyment of the sky's changing moods while an electric awning provides shelter and privacy. A bar table and stools together with a gas BBQ ensures relaxed outdoor dining. A carefully planted balcony garden includes rosemary and thyme. A gardener will come in once a week to tend to the plants. Permission will be sought beforehand.
GARAGE PARKING
The apartment includes undercover secure parking for one car with a remote provided. The remote works best when the car is close to the roll up door. Additional outside parking is available on site or on Chandler St.
ACCESS
There are two ways to access the apartment – either through a door to the stairs from the undercover garage or via the front door at the third set of stairs, down the path way from the outdoor parking. Each booking will have exclusive access to one undercover parking area (#48) via a remote control. The remote will be provided on arrival. The door to the apartment is operated by a code. Please generate a code that will be easy for you to recall after the booking is confirmed and deposit has been paid. The outdoor key can be sticky and will need a little jiggling but will work. Please remember to leave the front door key or swipe card and the garage remote control in mailbox #48 before you leave. AUDIO VISUAL GUIDE & SMART

The apartment is a shoe free zone. All the floors are brand new, so we ask that you leave your shoes just inside the front door. Of course, if it’s cool, wear socks or slippers.
