1/2 Stanhope Court, South Yarra

Exuding old world luxury and style, this grand apartment provides a spacious place to retreat in the very heart of South Yarra. Positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac, its enviable location is unrivalled, with luxury accommodation reflecting the prestige of its address. Its ground floor location provides easy street access from the foyer. A welcoming entry hall with high ceilings sets a gracious tone. The master suite resembles a grand hotel in its proportions, with extensive mirrored built in robes leading to a spacious bedroom that overlooks the stunning Parterre Garden with ornate fountain at its center. A marble lined ensuite with double vanities and spa bath completes the picture. Next, a second bedroom, currently used as a study, again overlooks the garden and provides flexibility to the floorplan suiting many purposes. A second bathroom opposite, and a well-positioned full-sized laundry add both convenience and amenity. Flanked by floor to ceiling windows overlooking the stunning garden, the central main living and dining area is flooded with natural light and mimics the proportions of a stand alone home. A second more casual living area provides a place to retreat. A large kitchen complete with Siemens appliances, designer joinery and stone benchtops is perfectly equipped for day-to-day living, or more elaborate affairs should the need arise. Moving outside, a wraparound veranda, with decorative iron lacework and sandstone paving perfectly complements the lovingly manicured, established Parterre Garden. Here, clipped hedges combine with decorative urns and wooden arbors, along with an ornate pond and fountain to provide a tranquil and private retreat, that can be enjoyed both indoors and out. An automated irrigation system and garden lighting ensure maximum delight. Wanting for nothing, the apartment has two secure underground car spaces, and a storage area all accessed by lift. Secure entry adds comfort and convenience. Situated moments from Toorak Village, Chapel St shopping and dining, Como Park and the Yarra River, not to mention plentiful public transport options, the options for enjoying the area are endless.
