The PRJKT

Cento combines sophisticated, luxurious and modern apartment living with an attractive Inner City location, allowing you to live large! This impressive nine storey building features eight levels of apartments, a ground floor and two levels of secure basement parking. It is equipped with desirable amenities that invite you to embrace a life without limits. Dip into a resort style pool with a secluded outdoor space, and break a sweat at the fully equipped private residential gym.

Originally constructed in the early 2000's, the building was once Pacific Suites, a hotel boasting one of the most sought after locations in the city. It is the hotel's enormous proportions that became the bones of this now stunning apartment building. Following a complete refurbishment, the established architecture has been creatively re-imagined by the acclaimed and trusted teams of Blackett Commercial and the Dept. of Design. (Yes, the building has not just had a botox "refresh", but a full face-lift!). These move-in-ready apartment homes offer convenience, style and certainty, presenting to you a fully refurbished building with an established body corporate. The stand out atrium of the building has been re-designed with arguably one of the largest murals in Canberra, "Between Mountains by Lymesmith", drawing inspiration from Black Mountain and Mount Ainslie, and is a refreshing reminder to residents of the prime location of these apartments. Everything you need to live large is waiting for you at Cento.
