You will be delighted when you discover what lies behind the high fence at 400 Church St; a lushly planted front yard and an art-deco inspired, boutique block of only three apartments. No. 2 is up one flight of stairs, once inside you immediately get a sense of being in the treetops. Gorgeous city skyline views from the kitchen window and swaying silver birches from just about every other window creates a welcoming feeling. Bright and spacious, featuring stunning spotted gum hardwood floors, lovely high ceilings, large windows, and a gorgeous sunken lounge. The feeling is one of privacy, tranquility, and exclusivity.
The entrance hall leads to two good-sized, carpeted bedrooms, both with excellent built-in robes and double-glazed windows. A handy and recently installed Euro laundry fits discreetly at the end of the hall, it's fitted with plenty of shelves for all your cleaning products. Also, newly renovated is the stunning bathroom, a stylish blend of charcoal floor tiles, elegant, grey mottled hexagon wall tiles, and a large shower.
Moving through to the dining room, kitchen and lounge your eye is drawn into the distant views, surrounding rooftops and the beautiful sunken living room - it's a cool mix of New York loft and Art Deco chic. The smart black and white kitchen is spacious, it offers generous granite benches and plenty of cabinetry, it's fitted with stainless steel appliances and has a cute study nook in one corner. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large dining room where many lively dinner parties will be enjoyed and beneath it is the inviting lounge. The tall windows are adorned with smart panel blinds and off to one side is the access to a super cute balcony, this is the perfect spot for coffee or a glass of wine as the sun begins to set.
This wonderful property also comes with a lock up garage accessed from Dickmann St, attached to that is a lockable store and an additional undercover storage area with a handy clothesline. From here you simply stroll to grocers, butchers, and bakers and of course several coffee shops and the delectable and always popular Gelato Messina. The walkability to countless tempting restaurants and cafes is one of the major highlights of this fantastic location; everything is just minutes away!
