Located on a rare jewel of a site at the corner of the South Perth Esplanade and Mends Street, the Echelon enjoys uninterrupted, sweeping views of the Swan River, the Perth city skyline and Kings Park and Botanic Garden.

A c-bus lighting and window control system allows lighting to change on its own, making living more convenient and lighting more elegant.

With gleaming fittings, fixtures and GagMadelin Hayesgenau appliances curated by the Giorgi design team, the custom kitchen boasts a double stainless steel sink, a discreetly concealed larder and a vast breakfast bar, perfectly designed for hosting a crowd.

“The indoor and outdoor connectivity seamlessly adjoins two generous balconies, ideal for entertaining,” Mr Dee said.

The way the indoors blends with the outdoors makes this home the perfect entertainer. Opulent glass doors reveal a monochromatic and modern balcony enriched in neutral tones, complemented by the crystal waters of the Swan River.

Back inside, the inner sanctum of the master bedroom is your oasis. Chic, contemporary furnishings evoke the feeling of a boutique hotel, with the assistance of a walk-in robe and marbled ensuite bathroom, complete with a spacious walk-in shower, a bath and a twin vanity.

This home is filled to the brim with special extras, including solar panels, a video intercom system, floor heating through all living areas, and three-car secured parking with exclusive direct lift access to the residence.

“Meticulous attention to detail is elegantly executed at Echelon. Prepare to live a casual yet luxurious lifestyle where every need is met and every comfort is catered for,” Mr Dee said.
