This two-bedroom apartment in a boutique block of just six has been renovated by someone with real imagination, and it strikes you the moment you walk in. There's character at every turn, more space than you'd expect, and a private deck out the back that is like gold in this area.
The living and dining room is generously sized, with a split-system air conditioner to keep things comfortable through summer and winter, and it opens straight onto the alfresco area. It's hidden away and wonderfully secluded, a lovely spot for a slow weekend breakfast or friends over on a warm evening, and there's a shed out there for the bikes and beach gear.
Then there's the kitchen, which is hard not to linger in. Timber benchtops, a farmhouse sink and a copper rangehood set the tone, while the gas cooktop, underbench oven and dishwasher take care of the everyday. Glass-paned cupboards give your favourite pieces somewhere to be seen, the light fittings are worth a second look, and yes, there really is an indoor vertical garden, which is handy if you like a few fresh herbs within reach while you cook.
Both bedrooms have robes, and the bathroom carries the same creative streak with splashes of blue mosaic tiling and a timber vanity topped with a vessel basin. Laundry taps and a car space look after the practical side of things.
You're moments from the cafés and cake shops of Acland Street, the beach, the St Kilda Botanical Gardens and Peanut Farm Reserve, with Luna Park and the Palais Theatre close enough for a spontaneous night out. Trams make getting around easy, which is nice on the days you'd rather leave the car where it is.
First home buyers, downsizers and investors will all find a lot to love here. It has size, attitude and individuality.
