9B/144 George Street, Fitzroy VIC 3065

Re-invented as a residential address in a style that respected its evocative c1936 Art Moderne origins, this ideally situated city edge building creates a great context for such a sensational apartment, architecturally designed by Russell & George. Original chevron patterned parquetry and soaring ceilings frame superb living/dining spaces accompanied by an inviting terrace and an open-plan kitchen fitted and finished with a clear focus on quality. On the upstairs level of a design that features a void of impressive volume, two double bedrooms, each with built-in robes, are complemented by two beautifully appointed marble bathrooms, including the main bedroom's ensuite. A dedicated study zone with a fitted desk adds to the attraction of an inspired conversion that's given this warehouse to a wonderful new identity. Marble powder room, ducted heating and air-conditioning, generous European laundry, car space and security. Surrounded by the best of Smith, Gertrude and Brunswick Streets, within walking distance of parks, gardens, the CBD and the MCG.
