Set within the iconic Pitman Shoe Factory (circa 1917), this rare three-bedroom warehouse conversion delivers an exceptional rental opportunity defined by scale, security and effortless lock-up-and-leave living, all moments from parklands, the Yarra trail and Melbourne's inner-city lifestyle.
Spanning three expansive levels, the home has been thoughtfully designed to balance privacy with connection. The ground floor welcomes you with a generous entry, where two well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in robes are privately positioned alongside a large central bathroom. A separate study at the front offers the ideal work-from-home space, tucked away from the main living areas for quiet productivity.
The first floor forms the heart of the home, where soaring proportions and oversized windows flood the space with natural light throughout the day. Striking steel beams pay homage to the building's industrial past, adding authentic character to an expansive open-plan living and dining domain. Steel-framed doors open onto a private balcony complete with a built-in BBQ and bar fridge, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining zone. The kitchen is both substantial and refined, featuring premium SMEG appliances including a 900mm stove, oven, rangehood and dishwasher, while a generous breakfast bar captures natural light and an elevated outlook.
Above, the north-west facing rooftop terrace is a true standout. Bathed in sunlight and enjoying sweeping city views, this space delivers a rare outdoor lifestyle so close to the CBD. Whether it's morning coffee, long lunches or evening drinks beside the gas fireplace, this is a setting designed to be enjoyed year-round. The master suite is also positioned on this level, complete with built-in robes, a private ensuite and direct terrace access, creating a secluded retreat above it all.
Positioned within an exceptionally secure boutique complex, the home offers true low-maintenance living with no upkeep required, ideal for those seeking convenience without compromise.
Features include:
- Two secure tandem carport spaces with remote access
- Boutique complex of only seven residences with excellent security
- Split system heating and cooling across all levels
- Hydronic heating with industrial-style finish
