Best for 3 adults (a couple in the main bedroom + one adult in the second) or a family of 4 (two adults + two children under 12). Not recommended for four grown adults — the second bedroom sleeps one comfortably, or two children.

A brand-new boutique apartment in Canberra's Woden Valley, designed for professionals, families, and anyone who values space, quality, and a proper workspace (a private office with a 4K monitor). Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a private balcony, secure underground parking — and full 24/7 access to The Shard's resort-style building amenities.

Our apartment sits on an upper floor of The Shard, a 268-residence building by award-winning Cox Architecture and luxury developer Zapari, completed in early 2026. At 80 square metres (70 inside plus a generous 10 m² tiled balcony), it's twice the size of a hotel room and built to a standard most hotels can't match.

THE SPACE
Open-plan kitchen, living and dining at the heart of the apartment. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms off the side. 2.5-metre ceilings, double glazing throughout, whisper-quiet ducted heating and cooling in every room. Every piece of furniture and every appliance has been selected new. This isn't a property we've "done up" — it's been fitted out from scratch to a standard we'd live in ourselves.
