Located between Maroubra and Kingsford on an Anzac Parade corner, this contemporary boarding house of efficient practical self-contained units rejects the old style run-down boarding house of the past, and instead reflects the growing needs of the young professionals and students in the area. It features:
- well appointed self-contained units — with each studio having its own bathroom, kitchenette and with most having its own courtyard or balcony
- community living encouraging socialising — with a shared common room, kitchen, laundry and landscaped courtyard with a fire-pit for barbecue entertaining
- aesthetics — generated by the site’s unusual, wedge shaped site geometry and corner position, feature balconies, and modulation of facades
- convenience — being close to buses, Pacific Square shops, Maroubra beach, hospitals, schools and UNSW
