What's around 1/79 Barkly Street

An Art Deco gem on St Kilda Hill

Surpassing its peers in terms of size, space, finish and flexibility, this ground floor period apartment in the iconic Emilton Court (c.1920’s) on St Kilda Hill, is the stuff lifestyle seekers dreams are made of. Fully renovated yet with its Art Deco character beautifully preserved, an exclusive block of only six apartments are understandably tightly held in a location that puts the beach and its foreshore attractions, Acland and Fitzroy Streets, Albert Park Lake and a host of other hotspots all within a short walk. Transport options including the light rail and St Kilda Road trams are all within easy walking distance. Occupying the entire ground floor of the east wing, fully independent, with its own street entry and private wrap around courtyard, this two bedroom apartment brings together all the elements that make this building such an admired environment. Treasured by just one owner occupier family for twenty years, its rich light filled character combines with stylishly renovated contemporary function, to provide a wonderfully versatile inner city home of the utmost lock up and leave convenience. A wide hall entry introduces a cleverly opened up layout in which generous living and zoned dining spaces relish an original OFP and flow out to a deck with seating for easy indoor/outdoor entertaining. In their own zone, two luxuriously large bedrooms include one with OFP, the main with extensive floor to ceiling BIRs/storage unfolding to the courtyard. Other highlights include a fully appointed stone kitchen with Bosch dishwasher and breakfast bar, stylish bathroom with shower over bath, heated towel rail and hidden laundry, panel heating and split cooling/heating, high decorative ceilings, hardwood timber floors, secure building with gated OSP. This family-sized apartment is situated in the zone for the coveted St Kilda Park Primary School.

Seller's review

Professional and experienced

We engaged Rohan to sell our beloved art deco St Kilda apartment. Rohan's professional attitude and experience were the reasons we selected him in the first place, but his positive approach was invaluable as we entered lockdown 4, 5 and then 6. It was a stressful period for us but Rohan's communication was clear and his attitude remained wonderfully optimistic. In the end we sold before auction and we are very happy with the result. We highly recommend Rohan and his Buxton team. Thanks guys!
