This landmark apartment development, designed by prominent Canberra firm Colin Stewart Architects, is located in Canberra’s inner-south suburb of Deakin, on a site formerly occupied by The Embassy Motel. CIC acquired the site early in 2009 and construction began in July of that year, after strong pre-sales had been achieved.

The location some 800m from the Prime Minister’s Lodge and two minutes from Parliament House is an exceptional one and the site is adjacent to the existing local village centre, which includes cafés, shopping, licensed club, professional offices and a fitness centre.  A wide range of amenities including recreational open space, public transport, schools and health facilities are nearby. The apartments will have views to Red Hill, Black Mountain Tower and the Brindabellas.

The complex consists of four buildings from five to seven storeys, within a secure, landscaped setting that preserves the leafy character of the suburb. There are 102 one, two and three bedroom apartments and 12 large penthouses, complete with extensive balconies, set back on the top level of each of the buildings. Parking and storage is accommodated in the project basement, with lift access to all apartments.

The Ambassador will have a spectacular entry through a single-level gallery space that will include a reception area, lounge and private dining room available to residents. Covered walkways link each of the apartment buildings. Landscaping will complement the architectural style and provide a visually interesting and functional environment. Ground floor apartments will have enclosed courtyards. The apartments have an estimated completion date of late 2010.
