2218/551 Swanston St

Floating 22 storeys above Melbourne’s chaotic brilliance, this fully furnished 2-bedroom wonder-pod isn’t just a place to live - it’s a philosophical perch with sweeping views and a personality disorder (the good kind). It doesn’t whisper “apartment”; it howls “perspective” into the wind - both metaphorically and literally. Perched precisely where the Paris End of the CBD gently high-fives Carlton’s leafy charm, you’re moments from Melbourne Uni, RMIT, Carlton Gardens, and the pasta-scented vortex that is Lygon Street. Trams hum below like metallic caterpillars, and everything your heart or stomach desires is either under you, next to you, or close enough to smell. Step inside this architectural haiku and let the eastern light kiss your morning face through windows that know poetry. The kitchen is cloaked in stone benchtops and quiet confidence, complete with a fridge and dishwasher, plus storage spaces that could hide a midlife crisis. The open-plan living area invites you to host intimate dinners, ponder the void, or binge-watch reality TV on your brand new two-seater couch while your TV judges silently from across the room. The 4-seater dining table stands ready for feasts, crafts, or half-written novels. Each bedroom houses a queen-sized bed with mattress and built-in robes that threaten to Narnia your belongings into another dimension. The bathroom? A minimalist spa dream with a rain shower and a mirror that’s witnessed more than it lets on. And tucked discreetly in the shadows - your loyal washer/dryer combo, ready to spin your socks into oblivion. This apartment doesn’t just come furnished - it comes pre-equipped for the peculiar poetry of real life. All you have to do is move in, float up, and breathe in the absurd magic of city living done differently. *Property is leased furnished
