Tucked between iconic Albert Park Lake and Fawkner Park on Melbourne's most renowned boulevard, pre-eminent 505 St Kilda Road offers luxurious low-maintenance living environments less than 3km from the CBD. Designed by Australia's internationally acclaimed Fender Katsilidis Architects, residences here are justifiably tightly held with their superb spaces enhanced by stunning views, secure parking, 7 day Concierge, 24 hour security, world-class amenities, and a position widely regarded as being amongst the City's finest.
Occupying a prized northeast corner in 505's exclusive rear tower, the skilful merging of two 140sqm apartments has created this unique three-bedroom three-bathroom sky residence against a sweeping, 180-degree backdrop of uninterrupted Fawkner Park and CBD views. Individually redesigned by Fender Katsilidis for its current owners prior to the building's completion, its bespoke accommodation has been impeccably cared for and consistently updated since, providing a rare, one-of-a-kind lifestyle offering with four storage cages and four car secure parking.
Beyond a dedicated entry foyer, high ceilings and timber floors lead the way to a series of lavish living, dining and entertaining spaces that expand out against immersive views over Fawkner Park's 101 acres of leafy parkland to the CBD, Government House, South Yarra skyline, the rooftops of the inner east, and the Dandenong Ranges. A sophisticated gourmet kitchen featuring stone benchtops, Gaggenau cooking appliances, including two wall ovens, Bosch dishwasher and butler's pantry, overlooks the three interconnected living zones and a full-width entertaining terrace/winter garden where clever auto louvres allow any weather enjoyment. In its own zone, the palatial main bedroom suite features extensive built-in robes/storage, and a sumptuous marble ensuite that includes a lavish full-size bath, oversized walk-in shower and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms, both of generous proportions, enjoy deluxe built-in robes/storage, one with ensuite, the other served by a central bathroom. A separate utility wing features extensive built-in storage, a separate fitted storeroom with space for additional fridge or freezer, and a dedicated laundry with raised appliance plinth. Freshly painted throughout, further highlights include ducted heating/cooling, new timber floors and pure wool carpet, premium blinds, intercom security and a private "end of hall" position.
In addition, residents enjoy access to a suite of premium amenities, including a 25m heated indoor pool, gym and steam room, residents' lounge, hotel-style marble foyer and grand, porte cochere entry.
Step out the door to fine dining, cafes and multiple trams to the newly opened transport hub Anzac Station, the Arts Precinct and CBD, Prahran Market, Chapel Street or St Kilda. Enjoy direct private access to Fawkner Park, walk to prestigious Melbourne or Wesley Grammar Schools, the Alfred Hospital, Albert Park Golf Course, Albert Park Lake and the Royal Botanic Gardens with easy access to other elite private schools and universities, and major arterial links to the Airport and Mornington Peninsula.
