A striking architectural fit-out merged with authentic industrial aesthetics brilliantly transforms the light and airy space of this large warehouse apartment into a single-level, New York loft-inspired sanctuary of exceptional style and seclusion. Manhattan meets Melbourne in the iconic Macrobertson building, as quietly situated at the beating heart of Fitzroy, an outstanding design framed by towering whitewashed ceilings, exposed solid brickwork, expansive original windows and polished concrete flooring is perfectly tailored to an exciting, low-maintenance lifestyle. Split-system air-conditioning, ceiling fans and radiant panels complement a sensational interior including 2 bedrooms with the extra-spacious main integrating built-in robes and the second functioning as either a sizable bedroom, a terrific home office or a handy additional living space. Central to the layout is a bathroom where a tiled shower-over-bath and an inbuilt cistern create a streamlined modern look including a laundry cupboard, while a big gourmet kitchen is ready for cooks to reach new heights with its Italian-made stainless-steel stove, dual dishwashers and plenty of excellent bench space and storage. Backed by a feature polished timber wall with mood lighting, an oversized living and dining room offers outstanding comfort and showcases all of the character, history and richness of this former chocolate factory that make it such a delicious city-edge proposition. Offered with a secure car parking space on title adding a valuable dimension to the opportunity, this remarkable warehouse home is a rare Fitzroy discovery where literally located at the doorstep lies are Brunswick and Smith Streets' endless cafes, restaurants, shops and wine bars, the Rose Street Market, Fitzroy Pool, city-bound trams, schools and the Edinburgh Gardens.
