Overview

Even The Seagulls Are Jealous.

EOI - Offers Invited by Tuesday 8 December 2pm They've seen the balconies. They've counted them twice. They're taking it personally. Perched on Level 3 of St Kilda's iconic Edgewater Towers (and Melbourne's first residential high-rise building!), this two-bedroom apartment offers a deeply unfair lifestyle advantage: two balconies, one admiring the park, the other flirting outrageously with the bay. Choose your outlook according to your mood. Leafy contemplation? Park balcony. Mysterious person staring meaningfully towards the horizon? Bay balcony. You contain multitudes. Your apartment understands. Inside, the generous open-plan living and dining area has room for proper dinners, horizontal Sundays and a houseplant collection that's beginning to concern your friends. The entire apartment has been freshly repainted, because even a coastal character enjoys a fresh outfit. The refurbished kitchen wears its original cabinetry with confidence, pairing beachy charm with stainless steel cooking appliances, a gas cooktop, oven and dishwasher. It's ready for culinary brilliance, midnight toast and everything in between. Both bedrooms feature built-in robes, allowing your clothes to retire from their demanding role as floor coverings. The bathroom includes a shower over the bath, equally suited to getting on with your day or briefly pretending you're a very relaxed submarine. Practical matters are also pleasingly sorted: split-system air conditioning, generous hallway storage, video intercom and a secure off-street car space. Then there's the building's completely reasonable decision to put something spectacular on its head. The communal rooftop terrace on Level 12 serves up 360-degree views across Melbourne. Wander up. Survey the city. Resist the urge to address everyone below as your subjects. St Kilda Beach, Acland Street's cafés and bars, light rail trams, Veg Out Community Garden and St Kilda Botanic Gardens are all close by, ready to support your increasingly elaborate approach to doing very little. Two balconies. One iconic, historically significant address. Please be sensitive to the seagulls. Outgoings (approximately) Owners Corporation Fees $1430 per quarter Council Rates $1751 per annum
