Forget the cookie-cutter apartment. This South Yarra original offers approximately 40sqm, a kitchen with space for meals, a living room all to itself and a balcony overlooking the trees. Set within a solid brick building at a prized address, it's a reminder of an era when even a one-bedroom apartment gave you room to spread out.
The central entry leads to a living room with built-in shelving, split-system air conditioning and a panel heater, while a glass door opens directly to the balcony. Across the hall, the separate kitchen has the footprint for a clever redesign. Three built-in robes provide excellent bedroom storage, the bathroom retains its shower-over-bath arrangement, and an off-street car space adds another advantage.
There's no expensive makeover to undo or somebody else's taste to work around. Refresh it gradually, rethink the interiors completely or simply enjoy the freedom to decide what comes next.
Beyond the front door, the prestige of Toorak Road come with all the pleasures of a walkable lifestyle. Fawkner Park is a stroll away, with cafés, restaurants and shopping all close at hand. Stock up at Prahran Market, explore the Royal Botanic Gardens or follow the Yarra River trail. South Yarra Station and trams provide easy connections to the CBD and beyond.
A first home, an inner-city base or an investment with renovation potential. Whatever your plans, this one gives you a fantastic place to start.
