Once completed, Port of Airlie will encompass a luxury international resort, 15 oceanfront homes, a public boardwalk, a 289 berth marina, a new cruise ferry terminal, as well as the Boathouse residential apartments. All of which will set new world-class standards in luxury waterfront living.
This Penthouse of Port of Airlie is designed by visionary architect, Gary Hunt. The penthouse and marina berth is part of The Boathouse apartments in Queensland’s Airlie Beach.
The brand new apartment includes 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, powder room, private roof top garden terrace and its very own 24m mono marina berth.
The massive 315 square metre penthouse apartment is truly one of a kind in design and features. Using a unique blend of materials, it incorporates wide openings with the use of louvers, shutters and screens and light hardwood flooring with caulking between the boards making the floor like a laid deck of a luxury yacht.
The Port Douglas based architect has lived and worked in the tropics for over 30 years and is a great believer in traditional, open-planned Queensland architecture to best suit to the climate.
With the Port of Airlie development as the new gateway to the 74 Whitsunday Islands, the penthouse apartment has been designed to capitalise on its premium waterfront position.
With balconies bordering three sides of the penthouse and the private rooftop garden terrace, stunning panoramic views of the Whitsundays have been maximised. The apartment also directly overlooks Port of Airlie’s very own world-class marina in which the 24m mono marina berth can be seen.
Set in a rich tropical landscape the Boathouse apartment buildings will also be surrounded by a suite of exclusive boutiques and restaurants.
Having commenced construction in May 2009 the Boathouse apartment buildings are currently on schedule, with completion expected at the end of the year.
As part of Meridien’s $750 million 5-star marina residential development, Port of Airlie is set to introduce a new standard of living in the North Queensland region, Australia.
