Set behind an immaculately presented shared courtyard, this historically significant building is now a set of contemporary apartments displaying the perfect combination of original charm and modern comfort. Built in 1882, the spectacular building has previously served as a hotel, gallery, cinema and even a ballroom! Its central location is truly enviable, with walkability to all of town's best shops, cafes, parklands and beaches. This is the ideal apartment for permanent living, as a handy coastal weekender or to keep as a profitable Airbnb investment.
Eclectic brickwork, curved ceilings and stained-glass windows create a unique backdrop throughout. Entrance is into a tiled foyer and a common hallway, from which branches the bathroom (including a bath and laundry to maximise space), a convenient powder room and a third bedroom (or alternative second living space). The artistic black spiral staircase winds upwards to the second and third levels and the main living hub on the second level is light and bright with a huge arched window and polished floorboards. Adjoining, the contemporary kitchen has a quirky blue benchtop, a Blanco oven, Emilia dishwasher and plenty of storage. The upper level accommodates two bedrooms; a mezzanine master suite and a second bedroom to the rear linked by ample storage space at the top of the stairs.
Year-round comfort is guaranteed with a split system air conditioner and ceiling fan. There is a designated off-street secure car space. To enjoy a leisurely lifestyle set amongst historical charm, this is the one!
