High above the world on the eighth floor of Maxx, this sophisticated apartment turns the view into part of daily life. Treetops, rooftops, open sky, the bay and the city skyline stretch out in front of you, shifting from soft daytime outlooks to sunset colour and night-time sparkle, a sweeping panorama with drama and theatre.
Rare for an address this close to the city, this 110sqm apartment comes with two car spaces and two storage units, alongside split-system air conditioning, secure video entry and a building manager, the kind of everyday ease not easily found this near the CBD, in a landmark development by Fender Katsalidis and CBG Architects.
The living and dining room is impressively generous with gleaming floor tiles, a corner window framing the spectacular outlook and sliding doors drawing you onto the north-facing enclosed balcony. Open the windows and it becomes a breezy perch for cocktails, cheese boards and watching the CBD come to life after dark, or a quiet morning coffee watching the hot air balloons fly through the sky. Close it up and it works like another room, sheltered and usable well beyond fair-weather days.
The streamlined kitchen is finished with stone benchtops, a dishwasher, ample storage and an island breakfast bar with seating for another entertainment area, casual meals, morning coffee or a glass of wine while dinner is underway. The two bedrooms sit apart from the living zone, the larger of the two including built-in robes and an ensuite, the second also with built-in robes and positioned right next to the central bathroom. A separate study gives you a dedicated work-from-home space overlooking Port Phillip Bay, and the separate laundry keeps the everyday details neatly tucked away in a standalone room behind the kitchen.
Set on the crest of St Kilda Hill, Maxx puts trams directly at the door for an easy run into the CBD. Albert Park Lake is a short walk away, its 5km path a favourite for a morning run, while the Esplanade and St Kilda foreshore make for beautiful beach walks any time of day, safe and well-lit after dark. For training indoors, the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre and St Kilda Sea Baths are both walking or jogging distance for those keen to skip a warm up on the treadmill, offering pools, saunas, hydrotherapy and gyms. Fitzroy Street is 500m away, with Chapel Street and Acland Street's cafes, bars and boutiques both within a kilometre. Chapel Street is also home to an excellent choice of yoga studios, just an 8-minute drive away. Zoned for Windsor Primary School and Elwood College, and near St Michael's Grammar and Wesley College, this is high-impact luxury with size, style and a skyline that refuses to sit quietly in the background.
A secure lift access, video entry and a dedicated building manager, without the added running cost of an on-site pool or gym, reflect the calibre of a landmark high-rise.
