Nestled within a classic mid-century brick complex, this two-bedroom apartment presents a lifestyle of ease and light-filled comfort, set in a sought-after pocket of Balwyn. The warm polished timber floors extend through the living areas and bedrooms, enhancing the inviting atmosphere created by generous natural light.

The heart of the home is its spacious lounge, boasting glazed double doors that open to the sun-drenched interior, complemented by climate control features including split-system air conditioning and heating, making it a perfect space for both relaxation and entertaining.

Adjacent to the entry, the meals area seamlessly transitions into the original-style kitchen. Functionally designed, it features ample white cabinetry for storage, a freestanding gas cooker with oven, and a stainless steel sink framed by a window that welcomes leafy treetop views, allowing connection with the serene outdoor environment.

Both bedrooms are well-scaled and include built-in robes, together with timber flooring and windows delivering abundant sunlight, enhancing the sense of space. The bathroom combines retro charm with pink tiles, and offers convenience with a separate bath and shower recess, accompanied by an adjacent laundry area.

A notable highlight is the separate sunroom, a versatile, bright retreat with a characterful brick wall and tiled-look flooring, ideal for use as a study, a reading nook, or a peaceful sitting area to unwind.

The apartment enjoys leafy outlooks onto established communal gardens and lawns, enhancing the tranquil ambience. Practical external amenities include a rear clothesline area, alongside the provision of one dedicated car space.

Strategically located for convenience, the property is close to Mont Albert Tram Terminus Village with cafés and specialty stores, and benefits from easy access to public transport including the 109 tram route to the city.
