3/2 Victoria Street, Elsternwick VIC 3185

Directly opposite Hopetoun Gardens in a well-kept 70s block, this first-floor apartment gets all the essentials right: sunlight, space, and that all-important style. North-facing and entirely transformed with an eye for design and quality, it offers the best parts of its era with a fresh in-vogue look that’s easy to live in and even easier to love.

The open-plan living and dining area is genuinely roomy, extending to a northern balcony for indoor-outdoor enjoyment, with hybrid flooring underfoot and sheer blinds to soften the light through the day. The kitchen curves neatly into view, offering the perfect connection for hosting, complete with stone benchtops, chic handmade ceramic tiled splashbacks, Bosch appliances, including induction cooking and a dishwasher, and lush morning outlooks across the park below.

Both bedrooms are well-sized and zoned away from the main areas, each with custom robes,premium loop-pile carpet and great natural light. Between them, you’ve got a central designer bathroom, a separate WC and, rare for apartment living, a proper laundry. There’s also split system heating/cooling, intercom entry, plenty of storage, and a rear car space on the title.

Steps from the green open space of Hopetoun Gardens and moments from Glen Huntly Road, everything you need is within reach. Wander down to Coles, grab a coffee or bite at one of the many local favourites, or book a last-minute film at the Classic Cinema. With city-bound trams, Elsternwick Station and some of the area’s best spots just around the corner, it’s easy to see why this one hits home.
