Overview

Stunning custom-renovated double storey apartment in Carlton North's heart

Tucked away in the exclusive heart of Carlton North, just a short walk to its charming village, this stunning apartment flaunts an exemplary architect-designed renovation that thoughtfully fuses character and timeless contemporary elegance. Nestled on a quiet bluestone lane off Rathdowne Street, in a tightly held boutique block of seven, the functional dual-level layout has been cleverly customised for luxury city-fringe living with spacious open plan interiors, premium appointments and a glorious north aspect. Honed concrete floors flow from the foyer into a large living and dining zone framed by rendered brick walls and drenched in light via double height windows with plush drapes. Step outside to a gorgeous sun-soaked undercover balcony great for morning coffee or after-work drinks. Finished in quartz benchtops, the gourmet kitchen boasts Miele fixtures (oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher), an integrated fridge and bespoke joinery. A spiral staircase leads to the huge mezzanine-style main bedroom. Set beneath timber-panelled cathedral ceilings and dressed in polished floorboards, it has extensive built-in robes and a sleek terrazzo ensuite offering a walk-in rain shower. There is also a generous downstairs bedroom with built-in robes, serviced by a lavish terrazzo bathroom with a rain shower over a custom bath. Features include a concealed laundry, split system heating/cooling, fantastic storage throughout, instant hot water and a secure covered car space with shed, accessed from Mary Street. In addition, the impeccably maintained block has intercom entry, bike storage and a residents' garden with vegetable plots, landscaped by Sarah Perry Design, which is perfect for summertime barbeques. With proven Airbnb potential, this low-maintenance northside sanctuary enjoys the ultimate lifestyle location, strolling distance to Rathdowne Village cafes and bars, leafy Curtain Square, city-bound buses and trams, the Capital City Trail, Lygon Street restaurants, Princes Park and Melbourne University.
