Expansive dual-level living spanning a total of 233 sqms approx. deliver loads of alfresco space and breathtaking views for a city-edge experience like no other from the prime penthouse position of this extensive 2-level corner apartment. The largest in 'New York on Oxford' sitting atop of a Foy & Gibson heritage building, this secluded light-filled sanctuary with an impressive 166 sqms approx. of interior space captures a stunning outlook to the city skyline as well as a sweeping panorama to the mountain ranges that will never be built out. Grand foyer entry with lift access to the fourth-floor introduces a warehouse conversion of substantial proportions where a large, lower-level entry hall with a 2-storey void, abundant cupboard storage and a European laundry leads on polished hardwood floorboards to oversized accommodation. Backdropped by direct access onto a mural-wall terrace that draws in the greenery from Kew's Studley Park and the Dandenong Ranges, 2 extra-spacious bedrooms offer incredible comfort with the first including built-in robes while the much bigger main with a dedicated study and walk-in robe area enjoys shared ensuite-access to a superb bathroom featuring a freestanding bath and a frameless-glass shower. Complemented by a big powder room, the top-level unfolds with full-width flexibility and a focus on the amazing views offering far-reaching space to configure as desired. So, whether it be living, dining, studying, reading or music, there's room to spread out and tailor at will by a huge modern kitchen featuring stainless-steel appliances, copious storage and a sociable breakfast and drinks bar. Endless glazing with a sliding door opens to the east-facing terrace and this is where the views really come into their own extending from the northern ranges and Ruckers Hill, over the inner-city to mountains, and across to the towering CBD buildings entertaining here is nothing short of bliss! Also offering ducted heating and cooling, video intercom, secure undercover parking and a storage cage, this extraordinary double-storey penthouse apartment offered for the first time in 25-years presents a genuinely rare lifestyle opportunity near vibrant Smith Street and an exceptional range of cafes, restaurants, wine bars, shops and supermarkets, along with trams into the city and parkland.
