A  WILD profusion of colourful daisies cascading down the high limestone wall of this North Coogee home proclaim this isn’t any ordinary apartment.

The ground floor dwelling at South Beach Promenade is fronted by its own garden, which creates a delightful alfresco area.

Sheltering hedging and a cast-iron fire pit add to the holiday feel of the apartment, which is just metres from the beach: “It’s magic at night,” the vendor says.

The three-bedroom apartment doesn’t have ocean views but does look out across beautiful landscaping and a huge artificial lake and water feature.

With its own attractive timber gate off the street, the secure main entry of the complex is rarely used by the vendor.

And the communal gym is never used, despite good intentions, she gleefully tells the Herald. The single level apartment consists of a sweeping open-plan living area, with floor-to-ceiling glass on two sides, which of course gives access to the alfresco area from the living, dining and main bedroom.

Light and space are what hit the senses as you step inside, nowhere more so than the huge kitchen with its sweep of white caesarstone bench tops, including an island and massive picture window overlooking parkland.

Soft-close drawers and a huge pantry ensure a happy chef in this very modern space. And there’s a study nook tucked into a corner for a bit of computer work while you wait for the pot to boil.

The main bedroom forms a parents’ wing, with a bank of built-in robes flanking the entry and a spacious ensuite with separate shower and deep bath.

This luxury apartment has 258sqm of interior and exterior space, and is walking distance from the rapidly expanding South Fremantle cafe scene.

Or hit the South Beach bike path and you can be in the Freo CBD in under 10 minutes.
