Overlooking Albert Park Lake to the shimmering waters of the Bay, this luxury apartment's sophisticated balance of house-scale proportions and timeless refinement is just what makes The Metropolis one of St Kilda Road's most distinguished residential landmarks. Designed to provide an uncompromising lock-up-and-leave lifestyle, its generous proportions, comprehensive security and iconic Melbourne address are perfectly suited to those with high expectations and busy working lives, those seeking to downsize without compromise, or those seeking a secure city-based sanctuary for easy living and memorable entertaining.
Beyond the formal reception hall, travertine-tiled floors lead the way to expansive open plan living and entertaining areas where floor-to-ceiling glass allows a seamless connection to the hero views. An elegant gourmet kitchen with two sinks and Miele appliances (plumbed coffee machine, combi microwave and wall oven) sits at the heart of separately zoned living and dining areas. A gas fireplace adds a warm, elemental ambience while a deep wrap-around terrace promises memorable summer entertaining against sweeping views that take in the Lake, its Golf Course, parkland and Formula One track with the Bay in the background, stretching from St Kilda Marina to the Westgate Bridge and on to the City fringe.
In their own wing, three peaceful bedrooms include one with built-in robes, one currently configured as an executive office or library with extensive built-in and display storage, and the primary forming its own retreat with a fully fitted walk-in robe, twin built-in robes and a palatial ensuite with double vanity, full-size bath and double shower.
Tailored for effortless living with total peace of mind, the residence includes a second bathroom and guest powder room, dedicated laundry with storage, extensive built-in and display storage throughout, ducted heating/air conditioning, herringbone parquetry floors, intercom security, two storage cages and basement parking for three cars. Residents enjoy hotel-level security and convenience through a 24-hour concierge service, with an indoor heated pool and a fully equipped gymnasium.
Set on Melbourne's premier boulevard, the address places Fawkner Park, Albert Park Lake, the Royal Botanic Gardens, Toorak Road fine dining and direct CBD and Arts Precinct trams at the doorstep. Enjoy easy access to many of the city's most admired landmarks, the Bay, the MCG, Prahran and South Melbourne Markets, leading schools and major arterial links to the airport, Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Ranges.
