Abode

Within a grand, historic brick building, this ground-floor apartment checks all the right boxes: well proportioned, fresh and updated, with a lovely wraparound courtyard.

Arrive through wrought iron gates to a striking entry framed by arched balconies, rich clinker brickwork, and terracotta tiles. Within the home, the floor plan is practical with lovely flow. The living and dining spaces enjoy front and back garden views, original cornices, and a working fireplace, while the kitchen is light-filled and functional with plenty of cabinetry and direct access to the courtyard.

The two bedrooms have great natural light, built-in robes, and are spaced privately on either side of the central hall. The bathroom is renovated in neutral tones with a walk-in shower and storage.

Outside, the brick-paved courtyard wraps around the rear and side of the apartment. A cement-rendered wall creates a beautiful, private boundary around the space, which features multiple, versatile zones within. There is also a separate laundry and secure access from both the street and the side.

Area

Enjoy one of Melbourne’s most beautiful locations, with the Royal Botanical Gardens and Fawkner Park on either end of the street. Albert Park is also a short stroll away, as are the fabulous bistros, boutiques, and villages of Toorak Road and Domain Rd.
