Reflecting Fitzroy's rich, progressive tapestry of history, industry and community, this stunning warehouse conversion is a ground-floor sanctuary that weaves original character and designer luxury into a compelling milieu of single-level sophistication with its own frontage and private entrance. Everything but run of the mill, its textile manufacturing past is writ large across the steel and timber beams and poles, exposed triple brickwork and solid hardwood floors that frame a brilliantly-reimagined, 2 bedroom interior infusing sleek marble accents, clever design elements and high-end modern appointments. A matter of only metres to the dynamic cultural, retail and culinary delights of Brunswick Street, this sublime warehouse apartment offers a flexible floorplan where an undercover security porch shrouded in greenery introduces a north-facing living room with extensive low-slung storage and loads of natural light. A brilliant curation of space, style and state-of-the-art appliances define a premium gourmet kitchen where a marble-encased waterfall island is like a communal oasis for preparations and conversations, while an adjoining dining area sets the scene for lively gatherings or quiet contemplation. The first of the bedrooms of large proportions is easily adaptable as a home office or multipurpose space, the main bedroom extends to a custom-fitted walk-in robe, while further is a beautiful ensuite bathroom that layered in marble and tiled floor-to-ceiling offers a luxuriously elegant edge. From its authentic industrial attributes to its custom-created fit-out, this secluded city-edge home stands alone with its independent entry as a rare opportunity for a lock and leave, low-maintenance lifestyle of endless inspiration near cafes and fine dining options, wine bars, galleries, speciality shops and boutiques, trams into the city, the Carlton Gardens and East Melbourne hospitals.
