The Perth Property Co. presents 15/65 Milligan Street, Perth.
Some buildings have a story worth telling, and this one has more than most. Originally built in 1927 for tobacco company W.D. & H.O. Wills, this landmark Perth warehouse has lived a few different lives, from tobacco production and storage to a nightclub and even a roller-skating rink. Today, it's home to a collection of distinctive inner-city apartments, where almost a century of history meets a thoroughly modern way of living.
Thoughtfully converted in 2008, the building's transformation was led by architect John Colliere of Colliere Menkins Pickwell Architects, with interiors by Rodney Thompson of Designlink. The result is a striking blend of old and new, with the beautifully preserved Wills façade providing a sense of history and the contemporary upper levels bringing the building into a new era.
Inside apartment 15, there's a lovely sense of space and warmth. Polished timber floors run throughout the generous open-plan living and dining area, while neutral toned walls, timber detailing and natural light create an inviting, relaxed atmosphere. The contemporary kitchen sits comfortably within the space, offering quality appliances, a dishwasher and plenty of practicality for everyday living.
Sliding glass doors connect the living area to a substantial private balcony, extending the space outdoors and offering a welcome spot for a morning coffee, an evening drink or simply watching the city go about its business.
Both bedrooms are generously proportioned, with the main bedroom enjoying a walk-in robe and ensuite, while a characterful sliding timber barn door adds a little personality. The bathrooms bring their own contemporary appeal, with considered finishes including sage-green tiling, timber cabinetry and a freestanding-style vessel basin.
There's plenty of everyday comfort too, with reverse-cycle air conditioning, double-glazed windows to help soften the sounds of the city, an internal laundry, intercom entry and secure parking.
And then there's the location. With RAC Arena just 300m away, the CBD at your doorstep and Northbridge's dining, entertainment and cultural scene close by, this is a wonderful address for anyone who loves having the best of Perth within easy reach. Elizabeth Quay, public transport, shopping and the city's many cafés and restaurants are all part of the appeal. The nearby Red CAT bus service adds another convenient way to get around, while easy freeway access makes travelling further afield straightforward.
Whether you're looking for an exciting city base, a stylish place to call home or a distinctive investment, this is an opportunity to enjoy the convenience of modern apartment living in a building with genuine character and a remarkable past.
