Overview

Character, Space & Location – Rare Art Deco Opportunity

Positioned within the historic Empire Apartments, this exceptional two-bedroom residence offers a unique opportunity to secure a slice of Melbourne's architectural heritage with all the comforts of modern city living. Spanning approximately 71sqm including a 5sqm balcony, the apartment showcases the classic proportions and period charm that define this tightly held 1928 Art Deco building – including soaring ceilings, decorative cornices, and a boutique low-rise ambiance rarely found in today's market. Freshly updated with new timber-look flooring and thoughtful contemporary touches, the home is superbly laid out. A large open-plan living and dining area flows onto the west-facing balcony, perfectly positioned above the leafy streetscape of Wills Street. The kitchen is house-sized and well appointed, featuring stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, dishwasher, and ample bench and storage space – ideal for both entertaining and everyday functionality. The main bedroom offers excellent storage via a walk-through robe and direct access to the central bathroom, which includes a full-sized bathtub and European laundry. A versatile second bedroom – also ideal as a home office or study – features custom joinery and offers flexibility for guests, remote work, or quiet retreat. Secure intercom entry, lift access complete the picture, of a building which itself boasts one of the most character-filled lobbies in the CBD, with a resident culture of long-term owner-occupiers and a peaceful, well-maintained environment. Situated just steps from Flagstaff Gardens, Queen Victoria Market, the legal precinct, universities, and an abundance of public transport options, this is inner-city living with a rare sense of grace and space. Whether you're an owner-occupier seeking charm and convenience, or an investor looking for long-term growth in a tightly held complex – this is one of the best opportunities currently on the market.
