5/3 Cowderoy St, St Kilda West VIC 3182, Australia

Falling in love is not only wonderful it will be instantaneous when you open the vibrant red door and step inside this pristinely maintained, character-filled apartment. Serenely tucked away at the rear of the attractive heritage block ‘Bellaire’, it’s a rarely found gem in an absolute blue-ribbon lifestyle locale. Just metres from the golden sands and sunshine of the Port Phillip Bay and nestled between the relaxed allure of Middle Park and the effervescence of Fitzroy Street, you couldn’t ask for a finer place to begin your lifestyle journey or invest.

Glowing with an inherent style of its own, the interior showcases an inviting living/dining room with leafy greenery peeping through the classy Plantation shutters in summertime, a light and bright bedroom with built-robes reaching to the ceiling, a refurbished ensuite bathroom with shower-over-the-bath, and a large kitchen accessing a timber deck for alfresco relaxation. Providing an abundance of handy storage, custom-designed Tasmanian Oak cabinetry and shelving enhances the overall ambience of warmth.

A bonus is the communal rooftop terrace capturing panoramic outlooks and crystal-clear city views – the perfect venue to sip wine, share grazing platters with family and friends and watch the fireworks on New Year’s Eve.

Glossy floorboards, washing machine taps and a beautifully landscaped pathway leading to the secure intercom entry are further highlights.

When you’re not escaping to the comfort of your private oasis, head out and enjoy all the surrounding lifestyle amenities, including a selection of cafés, city-bound trams, light rail, St Kilda’s nightlife and Albert Park for a stroll or jog around the lake.
