Tucked within the award-winning Ettaro development, this apartment doesn't just tick boxes. 110/24 on Barkly Street in Brunswick East offers a genuine lifestyle upgrade. Generously proportioned and beautifully presented, this one-bedroom home pairs quality finishes with an enviable set of resident facilities, all set within one of Brunswick East's most vibrant pockets. It's a blend of comfort, convenience and modern lifestyle rarely found in one address.
Wake up to birdsong and a leafy outlook over Canning Way – a rare and welcome dose of calm for an inner-north apartment. Inside, engineered hardwood flooring and down lighting run throughout, lending a warm, considered feel to every room. The open-plan living and dining area is bathed in natural light and flows effortlessly out to a private balcony, ideal for morning coffee or evening wind-downs, with air conditioning ensuring comfort year-round. A study nook offers a smart, dedicated spot to work from home. The kitchen is where form meets function, with stone benchtops, an induction cooktop and generous storage making it as practical as it is stylish. Underfoot, the bedroom is finished in lush carpet for a soft, hotel-like touch, and comes complete with built-in wardrobe that adds both storage and a sense of space. The bathroom continues that quality feel, with a wall-to-wall mirrored vanity, generous under-counter storage and an extra-large shower. A European laundry and split-system heating and cooling round out a floorplan that's been thought through for real, everyday living. Downstairs, secure basement parking – notably easy to access – comes paired with a separate storage cage close to the lift.
A handful of thoughtful extras add to the appeal: a new, powerful bathroom exhaust fan on its own separate switch rather than a compromised 2-in-1 unit, an additional power point in the living area, and a newly installed smoke detector. And then there are the neighbours – genuinely great ones, the kind that make an apartment feel like a home.
What sets Ettaro apart is what happens beyond your front door. Residents enjoy exclusive access to an indoor heated swimming pool and spa, a sauna and steam room, and a large, fully equipped gymnasium. The rooftop terrace garden is a standout, offering sweeping city views and unimpeded sightlines down tree-lined Canning Street toward Carlton Gardens – a front-row seat for sunset, complete with two outdoor spas to soak in the view. There's also an outdoor cinema, multiple BBQ entertaining areas, a residents' function room and even a bocce court, communal sharing libraries in the foyers and bespoke landscaped gardens throughout. Practical touches haven't been forgotten either, with bike storage, a dedicated recycling and hard rubbish area, and secure building access all managed by professional on-site building management. Ettaro is a well-maintained, medium-rise complex – and with an IGA supermarket right downstairs, the everyday errands practically take care of themselves.
Position is everything, and this one delivers. You're walking distance from some of the area's best cafes and restaurants, and just minutes from the tram, with two bus routes stopping right outside the building for an easy commute into the city. Nicholson Street, Lygon Street and Sydney Road are all nearby, offering an endless rotation of cafes, restaurants and bars, while Edinburgh Gardens and the Merri Creek parklands and cycling trails provide plenty of green space close at hand. Local shopping is equally well covered, with Barkly Square and Brunswick East Village just around the corner. Melbourne's CBD is only 4km away – an easy walk or bike ride – while the University of Melbourne, RMIT University and major hospitals are all within easy reach.
This is more than an apartment – it's a lifestyle worth waking up to.
