Positioned high on the prestigious eastern side of the architecturally designed Hawke & King development, this exceptional three-bedroom residence represents a rare opportunity to secure one of the development's most distinctive homes. Significantly, it is the only three-bedroom apartment on this side of the development, creating a rare combination of space, privacy and an expansive outlook across West Melbourne and North Melbourne, with the city skyline beyond.
Originally retained as the developer's own residence, the apartment showcases an elevated standard of design, space and functionality, with soaring ceilings, exposed concrete, rich solid timber flooring and expansive glazing creating a sophisticated industrial aesthetic softened by warm, considered interiors.
At the heart of the residence is an expansive open plan living and dining domain, where natural light, cross-ventilation and sweeping views across North Melbourne, West Melbourne and towards the city and Docklands with the bay beyond, create an impressive backdrop throughout the day. The living space flows seamlessly to a generous private balcony overlooking the adjacent park, providing an exceptional setting for entertaining, relaxing or simply taking in the changing urban outlook.
The contemporary kitchen is beautifully appointed with extensive storage, a substantial island bench, quality stainless-steel appliances, stone benchtops and a tiled splashback. Its generous proportions and seamless connection to the living and dining areas make it equally suited to refined entertaining and relaxed everyday living.
Accommodation comprises three generously proportioned bedrooms. The luxurious master suite features a private ensuite and built-in robe, while the additional bedrooms provide excellent flexibility for family living, guests, a home office or professional accommodation. The two beautifully appointed bathrooms feature contemporary finishes, walk-in showers and heated towel rails, complemented by a separate European laundry and excellent storage throughout.
A considered collection of appointments further enhances the residence, including double-glazed windows, ceiling fans, hydronic heating and reverse-cycle air conditioning, quality carpets to the bedrooms and secure lift access.
For those seeking an exceptional level of convenience, the residence includes two side by side secure car spaces positioned directly beside the lift, an unusually desirable configuration providing effortless access between the apartment and basement. Adding further practicality are three individual storage cages, providing substantial additional capacity rarely associated with inner-city apartment living.
Beyond the residence, Hawke & King offers a considered approach to contemporary urban living. Architecturally designed by Six Degrees, the award-winning development brings together buildings connected by light-filled walkways and landscaped communal spaces, with a strong emphasis on sustainability, community and liveability. Residents enjoy access to the spectacular rooftop terrace and kitchen garden, offering elevated views across Melbourne, together with a communal meeting room and other shared amenities.
The location is equally compelling. Errol Street (across the road) is the closest lifestyle precinct, placing an exceptional selection of cafés, restaurants, boutique offerings and everyday amenities within easy reach. The renowned Queen Victoria Market is also in close walking distance, adding one of Melbourne's most iconic food, shopping and market destinations to the doorstep.
For professionals, Flagstaff Gardens provides a picturesque walking route towards the CBD, offering the opportunity to walk to work through one of Melbourne's most beautiful inner-city parks. North Melbourne and Arden Stations, a tram stop outside the door, and the broader public transport network are readily accessible, while convenient freeway connections provide efficient access across Melbourne and towards Melbourne Airport.
Combining architectural pedigree, generous proportions, expansive outlooks and an exceptional suite of private amenities, this is a residence that stands apart within Hawke & King. With its distinction as the only three-bedroom apartment on its side of the development, its history as the developer's own residence, side-by-side parking immediately beside the lift and three storage cages, it presents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly distinctive home in one of West Melbourne's most considered contemporary developments.
