Spectacular custom-renovated apartment opposite Carlton Gardens
Exclusively perched within the boutique ‘Erskine Apartments’ residential complex, this spectacular two-bedroom abode has been custom-renovated to deliver a world class city-fringe lifestyle opposite Melbourne’s beautiful Carlton Gardens and just a leisurely stroll to the heart of the CBD and Lygon St. A statement in contemporary style and sophistication, the sumptuous house-like design is complemented by high-end finishes, a private north aspect and off-street parking. Ready to move straight in or simply lock-and-leave, it is sure to impress the most discerning buyer.
An internal lift provides secure access to the whisper-quiet second floor, which has dramatic city views. Here, the apartment reveals polished parquetry floors and elegant neutral tones that stretch from the foyer into a huge open plan living and dining area with a study zone. Appointed for entertaining, the gourmet granite kitchen boasts two ovens, a microwave, induction cooking and a concealed dishwasher, plus a walk-in pantry, bespoke cabinetry and a large island bench with seating capacity. Beyond a wall of glass is a sun-drenched sunroom (with sliding windows), crafted to capture northerly sunlight and panoramic views. Further on is an enormous main bedroom with a sleek ensuite, walk-in robe and conservatory access, king sized second bedroom with generous built-in robes, and lavish twin marble bathroom that has a freestanding bath and double shower.
One of only ten apartments in an impeccably maintained low-rise complex, this property features an oversized separate laundry, large powder room, extensive walk-in storage, intercom entry, ducted heating/cooling, ducted vacuum and a secure car space on title. Additionally, it is located steps from bus transport, two blocks from Lygon Street’s cosmopolitan cafes, restaurants and cinema, and walking distance to Queen Victoria Market, Melbourne University, major hospitals and a plethora of trains and trams.
