'Kia Ora' - 'Live well' in Art Deco charm and modern luxury
Peacefully nestled toward the rear of a leafy, landmark address is this top-floor, two-bedroom Art Deco sanctuary, its independently-positioned floorplan delivering ultimate privacy to a most convenient lifestyle. Enjoying direct access into the 100 verdant acres of Fawkner Park, Kia Ora - c1936, named after its developer's renowned cordial company, means 'to live well', and every aspect of its charming period space, modern luxury and unbeatable position allows this to remain true.
Offering instant appeal, the home's secure entry is welcomed by a corridor of lush Birch trees among pristine gardens. Beyond the elaborate detail of its curvaceous Art Deco façade, the elegant floorplan flaunts the lavish dimensions typical of its era's architecture. Decorative ceilings and cornices sit high above polished hardwood floors, while ornately glazed doors and textured plastering fill the rooms with retro grace. Adjoining living and dining rooms are filled with natural light by day, their balcony enjoying a sundrenched position for a morning coffee, while a cosy open fireplace warms the rooms by night. The kitchen is pampered with a full-appointment of European appliances and floor-to-ceiling storage, smartly garnished with timber benchtops.
Both bedrooms are extravagantly-sized with space for rest and retreat, the master suite containing a wall of fitted robes and a bright sunroom that offers flexibility for study or retreat, or as a potential ensuite or dressing room. Completed with a contemporary bathroom with European laundry, excellent storage including entry-foyer coat cupboard, and secure off-street parking, and in the year-round comfort of ducted heating and refrigerated cooling.
Live in luxurious style while indulging in a vibrant lifestyle, within walking distance of Melbourne's favourite arts, sports, shopping, recreation and culinary destinations with abundant transport surrounding. Mere moments from Albert Park Lake, the Royal Botanic Gardens, South Yarra food and fashion, and a leafy stroll into the CBD.
