39/1 Gordon Street

Exclusive Top-Floor Penthouse at the Metropolitan.

What You See:
From the moment you arrive, you know this is something special. Perched atop the Metropolitan complex in a quiet corner of Canberra City, this penthouse offers sweeping panoramic views of Black Mountain, framed by the city skyline. The energy of the city sits at your doorstep, with gourmet cafés, fine dining and ANU just moments away. Yet up here, peace and privacy take over.

Step inside and you’re greeted by sunlight flooding high ceilings, highlighting freshly painted walls, new carpets, and luxe Karndean hybrid vinyl flooring. The kitchen commands attention with stone benchtops, a feature island, new Smeg appliances, and a newly renovated chef’s pantry, perfect for storage and added convenience.

Across two levels, 148m² of space is well-designed. The lower floor hosts three spacious bedrooms, including a master retreat with private balcony, spacious ensuite, and new walk-in wardrobe. Upstairs, living, dining, and kitchen areas spill onto a sun-drenched wrap-around balcony, ideal for summer entertaining or taking in city lights at night. All three balconies feature lighting, while north-facing windows fill the home with natural warmth during
winter months.

Outside the apartment, resort style amenities complete the experience: a heated indoor pool, sauna, two gyms, a BBQ area, a Japanese garden, and meticulously landscaped grounds. A well managed body corporate with healthy funds ensures smooth, secure living with onsite management, top tier security, and brand new lifts arriving July 2026. The Gordon Street tram will be just steps away, adding another layer of connectivity to the lifestyle on offer.

What We See:
The best of the city at your doorstep and evenings spent unwinding above the city rhythm.
