AT238 Perth is located on 238 Adelaide Terrace, only two blocks from Perth’s CBD. The impressive 32-storey project is a fusion of contemporary high rise living and urban allure, on the doorstep of an energetic precinct where health and wellness, retail, and fine dining meet.

AT238 fuses organic themes of nature with a glazed façade that reflects the changing light and sky. Bold architectural panels create a striking counter point to the glass facade, creating a dramatic focal point from all angles. A honeycomb geometric form wraps the façade, blending modern elegance with contemporary appeal.

“It’s a very good-looking building. It’s different to most other buildings,” explained Hanssen Owner, Gerry Hanssen. “There’s more of a feature around the building itself.”

Great care has been taken to create a wholistic experience for residences, from street frontage through to the internal fitout. A peaceful ambiance flows through the entrance lobby, greeting residents and visitors with contemporary seating and modern artwork, complimented by the presence of an indoor Japanese garden.

AT238 features 119 residential apartments ranging from studios, one, two and three bedroom apartments, as well as a 3-bedroom penthouse on level 30. With a neutral colour palette, refinement has been considered
and implemented in every corner of the project.

“The Bubbledeck flooring, plus a lot of features on the outside such as enclosed balconies, bi-fold doors into the living area and a garden balcony, are all outstanding and are enclosed with glass, so they can utilise them better in the city,” said Gerry.

Building amenities include a roof top deck with outdoor cinema, Lounge and bar area as well as further amenities on level 6 incorporating a 20m swimming pool, gym, lounge and games area, gaming zone, dining room, theatrette, business centre, dog wash, steam room and outdoor facilities.

With health and wellness being at the top of everyone’s priority lists, a 20m pool, indoor gym and steam room ensure that unwinding will be a daily task, easily achieved.
