R.Iconic: South Melbourne's newest two-tower development
R. Corporation's latest apartment development, R.Iconic in South Melbourne, has welcomed residents into their new address at 259 Normanby Road.
The completed 31-level Plus Architecture-designed twin-tower development, one a hotel and the other an apartment building, offers various configurations from one-bedroom to three-bedrooms and penthouses, while the amenity on offer is as good as any project in the world.
Set among landscaped gardens designed by the renowned Paul Bagnay, R.Iconic features an expansive backyard featuring one acre of space.
Offering a calming welcome home is the project’s infinity lobby, leading residents to private lifts to their R.Iconic neutral white apartments.
Each residence is thoughtfully designed to maximise space and natural light.
The kitchens showcase sleek, reconstituted stone benchtops and mirror splashback.
Wooden floorboards, metallic and white joinery and brushed silver hardware are chosen to add warmth and timelessness to the space and to ensure a home that is durable and low-maintenance.
Health and fitness junkies will appreciate the abundant wellness amenities, such as the state-of-the-art gym, an infinity pool, a running track, fitness stations, a tranquil zen garden, and a floatation spa.
There are also many entertainment options, including outdoor dining pods, a cinema, a karaoke room, a wine vault, a whiskey lounge, a Mahjong room, a virtual golf range, and an adventure playground for children.
As a pet-friendly development, R. Corporation did not forget about the residents' furry companions and provided dog grooming amenities.
The adjoining hotel also boasts a wealth of amenities that are open and easily accessible to the residents. Starting from the relaxing lobby garden and clubhouse to the Coles Local and Liquorland right on the ground floor.
Other features and services include a bicycle café, Mercedes loan van, e-bikes and scooters, electric car charging stations, secure bike storage, business space and digital media rooms.
Surrounded by low-rise residential and restricted height zones, R.Iconic will be the only building with protected, never-to-be-built-out views of the city skyline and Port Phillip Bay.
The development also offers residents a unique opportunity to experience life in a "15-minute neighbourhood".
At R.Iconic, residents can step outside their front door and catch the light rail, connecting directly to Southern Cross train station. Whether residents choose to walk, bike, or drive, everything they require is just a 15-minute journey away.
