Overview
This apartment offers a unique opportunity for design enthusiasts seeking an elevated urban retreat within an iconic architectural block designed by Daryl Jackson. Renovated to a high standard with Belgian minimalism influences, the home delivers a harmonious balance between style and comfort.
Accessed through fingerprint entry into a sisal-lined vestibule, the residence ascends via an exposed concrete stair to the main living space. This area benefits from northern exposure, opening onto a balcony that overlooks treetop and city views, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
The kitchen and dining area are a highlight, oriented towards those who enjoy hosting, featuring premium Bosch and Smeg integrated appliances, custom smoked blackbutt joinery, and luxurious silver ash marble benches. The adjacent lounge includes practical built-in cupboards and a striking white concrete TV plinth, complemented by a central Daikin reverse-cycle heating and cooling system to ensure year-round comfort.
Natural light permeates the skylit hallway, leading to the bathroom equipped with a shower over bath, infrared heating, and finishes combining blackbutt timber with marble joinery. The three bedrooms accommodate diverse needs, with two generously sized and a third cleverly designed with skylight illumination and an integrated loft bed. All bedrooms include built-in robes for organized storage.
Outdoor appeal is enhanced by shared native courtyards with towering lemon-scented gums and private pathways connecting to a beloved elm-lined park. Within the community grounds lies a communal citrus grove with established trees bearing lemons, limes, mandarins, and grapefruit, enriching the living environment.
The location invites an active lifestyle with nearby amenities such as a dog park opposite and convenient tram access via the No 1 tram line, leading to both city and beach destinations. Within walking distance are the Royal Botanic Gardens, Shrine of Remembrance, Anzac Station, Albert Park Lake, and the famous South Melbourne Market and various cafes, offering an enticing blend of nature and urban convenience.
This apartment is ideal for those valuing architectural distinction and a lifestyle combining tranquillity, entertaining potential, and excellent proximity to key cultural and recreational hubs.
