Find your grand Art Deco at the gateway to Albert Park... with the lake in view, the parklands and golf course within quick safe reach, and park-like shared grounds! Positioned alongside the pedestrian crossing to the Park in a tightly-held group of Art Deco apartments, this spectacularly scaled approx. 85 sqm, first-floor, two-plus bedroom apartment exceeds all expectations of space, serenity and lifestyle. Light-filled and lofty with gracious double-doored living catching a filtered lake-glimpse, this impressive apartment features a multi-purpose room (ideal as business-at-home office, nursery, formal dining or sitting-room), and oversized bedrooms; including master with room to retreat. Scaled up with room to dine in a well-appointed modern kitchen, a full bath for the big bright bathroom, and a discreet European laundry area, this fine period residence retains authentic Australian hardwood floors, lofty ceilings and a vintage fireplace-mantle...all set against a backdrop of the thickest double-brick walls painted in today's freshest, whitest scheme. Panel-heated and fan-cooled throughout with excellent storage including built-in robes (with dual his-and-hers robes including a sleek full-wall for the master), this impressive apartment offers even more outdoors with auto-gated carport parking (from Queens Lane) placed securely at the centre of the gorgeously groomed botanical grounds. Aristocratically addressed in this parkside, park-access position, this grand apartment enjoys one of Melbourne’s great lifestyle locations with the St Kilda Rd tram within 200 steps, Middle Park beach and St Kilda’s Fitzroy St hospitality a walk through the park (and around the lake), Chapel St’s vibrant shopping precinct within walking distance, and the CBD within 15 minutes by cycle or tram.
