Up-front, on high, and rising above all expectation, this is apartment living of rare space and quality. One of two flagship homes set across the central ‘bridge’ of this refurbished mid-Century group, this first-floor apartment rises above the rest with an up-scale three bedroom, two bathroom floorplan characterised by grand proportions, high ceilings and freshly polished presentation. Newly painted, impeccably polished and built on the grandest scale of the era, this accommodating apartment unfolds with an expansive open-plan with lounge-dining flowing seamlessly to a glass-edged balcony, and a dedicated meals area alongside a family-sized Blanco appliance kitchen with gas-cooktop and dishwasher. Beautifully accommodating with a marble-finished ensuite and walk-in robe for the balconied master, this spacious home is immaculately presented with a freshly polished main bathroom with separate WC for the secondary bedrooms to share. So well-appointed with multiple reverse-cycle air-conditioners and tall full-height mirrored robes (in addition to the master walk-in), the apartment is styled with authentic hardwood floors, plush charcoal carpets and quality window-furnishings. Secured by intercom entry with an auto-gated 3-car carport, this flagship apartment has a St Kilda East-gateway position between Glen Eira Rd and Carlisle St within a few blocks of the tram, 350m to Ripponlea station, and easy walking distance to community centres and schools (including Caulfield Grammar and Yeshivah College).
