THE DEAL
The perfect professional’s retreat, downsizer’s domain, or base for regular travellers and those balancing country and city living, this self-titled, street-fronting gem weaves space, simplicity, and flair into one of Melbourne’s most celebrated lifestyle pockets.
Designed with sympathy for the Victorian terraces its surrounds are famous for, a modest, sophisticated façade preludes first-class interiors where space is optimised, light is maximised, and everyday function is placed at the fore. Two impressively sized bedrooms are joined downstairs by a smart bathroom with a stone vanity top, while above, a stone-top kitchen with upscale Smeg appliances serves an open-plan living/dining area. An enclosed, north-facing terrace is usable year-round and superb for an evening drink before venturing out to local nightspots, while the home’s other highlights include ample street parking, reverse-cycle heating/cooling, re-sanded timber floors, an alarm, study space, and 2.7m ceilings for a delightful sense of space.
SEALS THE DEAL
With Walk and Transit Scores of 97 and 100, it’s no more than footsteps to steps to bars and pubs, world-class coffee, Queen Victoria Market, Arden and North Melbourne Stations, Arden Street’s oval and fitness centre, leading universities, and Parkville’s major hospitals, while trams reach Melbourne Central in less than 10 minutes.
