One of just four in its building where roots stretch back to the inter-war era, this walk-up classic embodies the grace and glamour of Art Deco design, delivers comfort with scope to renew, and celebrates its position opposite Princes Park. Beyond its unassuming entrance, a ground-level coat room and staircase prelude sun-splashed accommodation above. Dimensions, solidity, and coverage of sun are instant points of distinction to the apartment norm, with intricacies in high, ornate ceilings, hardwood floors, and a decorative fireplace all preserved to keep character alive. Two substantial bedrooms are accompanied by a master walk-in robe and ensuite, central bathroom with a bathtub, northern lounge, and kitchen/meals area, while other highlights span sash windows, heating/cooling, a car space, and laundry stepping out to a service yard. A true inner-city rarity with acres of parkland quite literally at its doorstep, it’s only metres to Royal Park’s fairways and green expanses, Barkly Square shops, and the retail, culinary, and afterhours scenes of Sydney Road and Lygon Street, along with trains, trams, and bike paths for easy hospital, university, and CBD commutes.
