Overview

Large, light & stylish city-edge balcony oasis

A short stroll from Flagstaff Gardens and the Queen Victoria markets in a quiet city-edge pocket, a stylish, modern 2 bedroom apartment in the magnificent heritage Keep Bros & Wood building (c1920), which was converted to exceptionally large, spacious and airy apartments in the early 1990s. On the first floor rear of the three storey building, the apartment looks over the building's leafy private garden. The single-level apartment features a large entrance hallway, 2 big and bright bedrooms with built-in robes and garden views, a huge bathroom with a separate toilet and European laundry with a Bosch washing machine and dryer. There are wooden floors throughout, double-glazing in the lounge room, and French doors opening to an oversized entertainment balcony. The apartment has split-system heating and cooling, video intercom and double filter/block-out blinds on all windows. Solar panels have recently been installed on the roof. The sensational, open-plan living and dining room offers ample space to spread out in and enjoy the seamless connection to both the inviting balcony and a brilliant 4-sided kitchen featuring stone-topped benches, loads of storage space, a Fisher & Paykel fridge and a Bosch dishwasher. Behind the garden there is secure car parking on title. This energy-efficient oasis of impressive proportions presents a rare opportunity in a tightly-held building for buyers dreaming of an easy, lock and leave lifestyle on the verge of Melbourne's exciting CBD. Stroll or cycle into the city, and love the building's convenience to a wide range of cafes, restaurants and nightclubs. The William Street legal precinct, Haileybury school, the Queen Victoria Market, and Southern Cross Station are all just minutes away.
