DESCRIPTION

Now, everyone has different opinions about floorplans and how they want to live. However, from my experience in this line of work, I can say confidently that this floor plan in the Ruby is in my top two for this building.

� Separated bedrooms for privacy, so no sharing walls while dreaming
� Two balconies that let in plenty of light and offer mountain views with stunning sunsets
� Privacy screens so your neighbours can't peek in and get jealous!
� Double oven - one to bake cookies in one and the other to cook a roast maybe
� Ensuite in the main bedroom - you could easily forget it's there because it's so discreet and doesn't impact the space. (During my walk-through, I was worried there wasn't a second bathroom!)
� The main bathroom feels spacious, and the hallway makes it feel like you're entering a home, not just stepping straight into the apartment
� Wooden styling flooring making it easier to clean and looks premium

For those who love to do their research, this building was built in 2020 by POD Projects and constructed by Core Development - the same team behind the Jade next door, Mezzo across the road, Mulberry in Dickson, Boulevard in Denman Prospect, and Salt in Kingston.

Next, you're probably wondering about the costs of owning this apartment. The body corporate is $4,437.80 per year, and ACT Rates $3,018.90 per year and Land Tax $4,326 approx per year, this only applies if you're purchasing this apartment as an investment. If you plan to live in the property, you won't need to worry about land tax at this time.

The beauty of living in the Ruby is how well the building has been maintained. The pool on Level 8 is a fantastic option for residents and families, especially with warmer weather coming. It's protected from the wind by glass and offers stunning views of the mountains as a backdrop. The gym on Level 16 is tucked away from prying eyes, with the hills as your only spectators. The building also features community areas, BBQ/pizza oven spots for residents, and a little community that maintains the gardens with seasonal flowers. It's a well-looked-after and managed development.

There are two side-by-side car parks on Level 1, with a storage cage on the same level. They're super close to the lift for added convenience.

Location-wise, you're close enough to feel connected but far enough to have your own space in Gungahlin. The tram line and bus stops at the shops are just a short walk away, and Siren Bar is nearby for after-work drinks (they do a great schnitzel too!).

If you need a bigger gym, Club Lime Gungahlin is right across the road. If plants and DIY are more your style, Bunnings and Spotlight are close by and ready to be your new best friends.

Furnishing your place has never been easier, with Kmart, Fantastic Furniture, and Big W in the area. You'll find everything you need to make your apartment a home.

The eateries in the Gungahlin shops are plentiful, with local favorites like Grease Monkey, Sunday Caf�, Dobinson's, El Jannah Chicken, Ramen, and Jade Dumpling House. Plus, you have all three major grocery stores - Aldi, Coles, and Woolworths - and plenty of other shops to help you live your best life in Gungahlin.

This is a great 2-bedroom apartment with a collective 97 sqm of space in a well-established and loved complex in Canberra's family-friendly suburb CBD. When you write your pros and cons list for this place, you might need more space for the pros!
