122sqm Boutique Living in a Tightly Held and Desirable, Leafy New Farm Pocket
Enjoying a quiet position behind established greenery in one of New Farm’s most tightly held streets, Apartment 1 at Tarcoola delivers a rare balance of space, privacy and long-term appeal. Set within a solid mid-century brick building on a substantial landholding, the residence offers generous proportions and a sense of ease that is increasingly difficult to find in inner-city living. Secure low-level placement adds everyday convenience while preserving a feeling of separation and calm, creating a home that feels both connected and quietly removed from its surrounds. Air-conditioned living and dining areas unfold across a broad open-plan layout, where polished timber floors and large windows invite natural light and leafy outlooks across tree-lined Langshaw Street. The proportions comfortably accommodate both a full dining setting and relaxed lounge arrangement, flowing seamlessly to a covered balcony framed by striking external shutters. This outdoor space enhances year-round liveability, offering a private setting for relaxed entertaining. The kitchen balances clean design with everyday practicality. White cabinetry, generous bench space and a wrap-around layout provide excellent storage and preparation zones, complemented by stainless steel appliances, electric cooktop, oven and dishwasher drawer. The window above the sink brings in light and ventilation, with calming views over established greenery and surrounding residences. Accommodation is well considered, with two bedrooms thoughtfully separated for privacy. The master bedroom is generously sized and includes a built-in wardrobe, air-conditioning, ceiling fan and direct access to the balcony. The second bedroom is equally well presented, also featuring a built-in wardrobe and ceiling fan, making it ideal for guests, home office or shared living. A renovated bathroom offers contemporary finishes, complemented by an integrated laundry and separate powder room. Beyond the apartment, Tarcoola stands out for its scale and setting. The boutique complex comprises just 24 residences across nearly 2,000 square metres of land, with established gardens, a predominantly owner-occupied feel and the added benefit of a secure single lock-up garage. Its classic construction and generous grounds underpin strong long-term value and future potential. Langshaw Street is widely regarded as one of New Farm’s most desirable addresses, celebrated for its leafy character and proximity to the river. New Farm Park, Powerhouse, Merthyr Village and Jan Power Farmers Markets are all within easy walking distance, while James Street, Howard Smith Wharves, Gasworks and the CBD are close at hand. Opportunities combining space, land value and lifestyle in such a location are rarely offered, and inspection is strongly encouraged to fully appreciate what is on offer.
