Overview

Light, leafy and a balcony over the canal

SOLD BY JULIAN CANNATA There are plenty of addresses in Elwood, but very few sit directly beside the canal in Poets Corner with the Paul Hester Walk at the door. Named after the local musician and founding member of Crowded House and Split Enz, the trail runs straight to the beach and on a good day, that's exactly where you'll be headed. Set on an elevated level in a classic 1960s block, the generous living and dining room opens to a balcony through a glass door, with tree canopy and canal views that shift as the light moves across the water. The refurbished kitchen sits neatly alongside, finished in white cabinetry, a gas cooktop and underbench oven complementing the warmth of the floorboards. The bedroom features built-in robes and an ensuite with shower-over-bath. Iconic Jerry's Milk Bar sits around the corner for coffee, with Elwood Village and Acland Street both within easy reach when you feel like staying local but changing scenery. Elwood Park, Elsternwick Park and the St Kilda Botanical Gardens are all walkable, and with trams, buses plus Ripponlea and Elsternwick stations all close by, the car can stay garaged in its dedicated undercover car space (with potential to be garaged).
