2E/481 St Kilda Road, Melbourne

Offering a brilliant connection to Fawkner Park and spectacular green outlooks from every window, this residence delivers an elegant and refined "lock up and leave" lifestyle with resort-style amenities in this highly regarded St Kilda Road building. Designed by the architect of the Myer Music Bowl, Barry Patten, Parkside Apartments consist of just 37 apartments, all of which are tightly held and enjoy direct access to Fawkner Park. A home of this size and scale in this iconic stretch of St Kilda Road is something of a rarity. Situated on the second floor, and located in the favoured north-east corner of the building, this apartment brims with natural light. Glorious views over Fawkner Park create a great connection to nature. A balcony extending the full width of the apartment overlooks the park, while at the front of the building St Kilda Road beckons with trams to the CBD, the Arts Precinct, cafes and boutique shopping. Parkside is also close to some of Melbourne's best schools. This outstanding residence offers up to three living zones, three bathrooms, including an ensuite, a powder room, two car spaces and a large storage cage. The wide entrance hall opens to an expansive living and dining room with built in cabinetry on one wall and spectacular vistas of the park's dramatic seasonal foliage. The casual living zone connects seamlessly to the balcony for indoor-outdoor entertaining where the trees seem to be almost within touching distance. The large dine-in kitchen also has commanding park views. The sheer size of this apartment allows the bedrooms to be zoned well away from the living rooms. The luxurious main suite with walls of windows includes a lounge area, fitted walk-in wardrobe, dressing room and a marble spa ensuite with twin vanities. Two additional bedrooms with built-in robes share a marble central bathroom. This residence, with a sense of openness and proportion, is further enhanced by a marble powder room, heating and cooling. Residents can enjoy facilities of swimming pool, sauna, gym, tennis court and BBQ areas. In the tradition of all great buildings, it also boasts a 24 hour concierge.
