One bedroom units sell in Moonbria between $441,000 AUD (back of the building with no balcony) to between $485,000 AUD - $525,000 AUD for the highly collectible front of building units fronting Mathoura road and located either side of Roy’s infamous circular staircase tower.

Want the buying hack?
​
Only six of Moonbria’s 21 units enjoy tree lined Mathoura road. They are units 1,2,3,9, 10 & 16. Of those units only four units 1,2,3,& 9 have BOTH the highly coveted lock up garages (on title) AND full width private balconies.

We colloquially like to call these units the ‘Collectible Four’.
​
If you are wanting to own and live in our magnificent Moonbria then one of these four blue chip apartments are unquestionably the best apartments in Moonbria to happily reside in. ]]><![CDATA[Adam The Carpenter]]>Sat, 28 Feb 2026 13:00:00 GMThttps://www.moonbria.com.au/community-board/adam-the-carpenterOver the next few days you’ll notice Adam repairing our rear gate, the laundry door and some garage wall dividers.

Over the years we’ve had a lot of enquires from students or potential buyers enquiring as to whether Moonbria has fireplaces. Well we can confirm that Mr Grounds designed all 21 apartments with feature fireplaces. Some of them work, others have been blocked off at the chimney stack level back in 2017. Many owners have retro fitted the original fireplaces with electrical units that mimic a fire, either way Mr Grounds original designs along with an original bath are a nod back to his family’s UK origins. In the cooler winter months there is nothing better than a sitting by the fire after a warm bath. So yes, that is a fireplace and all units had them originally so it’s best to check and test before you buy.
