It's hard not to feel on top of the world up here. Perched high on Scotch Hill, this renovated top-floor apartment looks out over treetops, rooftops and the distant city skyline. Big windows bring the scenery into almost every room, while a west-facing balcony gives you a front-row seat as the sun goes down.
A dedicated entry leads through to the living room with glass doors opening to the balcony. Pull up a chair with a drink and watch the CBD change colour as evening approaches. The dining room has its own balcony door too, so entertaining can easily spill outside. A nook for a desk, a built-in cabinet and a servery through to the kitchen are thoughtful extra touches.
White cabinetry, stone benchtops, glossy subway tiles and black accents give the kitchen a crisp, modern look, while stainless-steel Bosch appliances include a gas cooktop, oven and dishwasher. And with greenery in view above the sink, even the washing up comes with something worth looking at.
Both light-filled bedrooms are generous. One has a walk-in robe, the other built-in robes. The updated bathroom has a walk-in shower, contemporary vanity and laundry facilities, with an adjacent separate toilet.
Double glazing, a split-system air conditioner and electric panel heaters keep things comfortable, and a secure undercover car space is a welcome bonus.
Walk down Glenferrie Road for a coffee or take one of two tram routes, with Kooyong Station, Scotch College and the Yarra River all close by. HA Smith Reserve offers sporting grounds and paths, Fairview Park is a lovely spot for a stroll beneath the trees, and Swinburne University is within easy reach.
We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
