2305/50 Haig St

Tucked just a few paces from the glowing buzz of Crown Casino, this not-so-ordinary one-bedroom sky sanctuary offers a lifestyle that’s part urban legend, part weekday fairytale. Sunlight floods every corner like it’s auditioning for a music video, and the proportions? Surprisingly generous for a home perched this close to civilisation’s glittering epicentre. Slide open the double-glazed doors and you’ll find a full-length balcony that doesn’t just offer views - it performs them. Watch the bay sparkle, wave at the clouds, or host a quirky dinner party where your guests pretend they’re at sea. The open plan living and dining space flows with the grace of interpretive dance, while the kitchen - fitted with a big fridge, microwave, and dishwasher - is ready for anything from burnt toast to Michelin-level magic. The bedroom, wrapped in floor-to-ceiling windows, invites sun, stars, and your existential thoughts. With built-in wardrobes that feel like portals to Narnia and an internal laundry (dryer included!), the only thing missing is your pet flamingo (BYO). Want a washing machine? We’ve got one - it’ll cost you an extra $5 a week, but think of it as a rental for convenience. Comfort isn’t an afterthought here - it’s engineered. Split-system heating and cooling keeps the vibe just right, while video intercom entry gives your visitors the dramatic entrance they deserve. A secure car park ensures your vehicle has its own little nap pod, and the building’s pool on the ground floor? Let’s just say it’s ready for your post-work mermaid routine. Location-wise, you’re spoilt. The CBD, Yarra River, South Melbourne Market, Docklands, Southgate, and Clarendon Street are all within arm’s reach. Public transport is practically throwing itself at your feet - trams, trains, and buses galore. So if you’re after a home that’s equal parts comfort, charisma, and low-key eccentricity - welcome to your Southbank hideaway. It’s not just a place to live. It’s a vibe. *Property is leased unfurnished
