THIS fantastic Highgate apartment has loads of fringe benefits.

It’s got two courtyards, a communal pool, gym and lounge, and is one street back from Beaufort Street.

It’s also on the edges of the St Marks apartment complex, meaning you have access to the facilities but none of the noise and busyness.

Everything looks pristine and new inside this two bedroom two bathroom apartment (it’s been freshly painted) with the high-quality timber floors a highlight.

It feels light and airy with plenty of space in the open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area.

For an apartment, the kitchen is a good size and includes a water filtration system, dishwasher, breakfast bar and built-in pantry.

Both bedrooms are spacious and have built-in wardrobes with the main featuring a lovely ensuite.

It’s great that both bedrooms have large glass doors leading to the outside.

Having a private courtyard is important in an apartment, giving you that little bit of fresh air and outdoor space.

This has two cute courtyards and a little strip of artificial grass for your pets, which are permitted in this complex.

After a hard day in the office, head to the 21m lap pool to get some exercise and banish all that stress, or pop into the gym and pump some iron.

Lifestyle is another drawcard with this apartment situated in the heart of Highgate, around the corner from an endless array of cafes, bars and restaurants including the Queens, Bar Rogue, Ischia and Mary Street Bakery.

You could even walk into the city, or jump on the number 950 bus if you are feeling lazy.

Come Sunday, head to the nearby Forrest Park or Hyde Park, where you can chill in the cool, leafy surrounds.

The apartment includes split system air-conditioning in the living area and bedrooms, secure car bay, store room and has its own private entry off Stirling Street.

If you want a spacious pristine apartment in the heart of Highgate – this could be the one for you.
