Offering the rare status of being standalone, this significant property is a true gem in the city. Located at the end of this iconic laneway, which is also a convenient cul-de-sac with no through traffic. The home is architecturally designed for buyers who appreciate high style and seek the perfect city oasis. Spread over two levels with soaring ceilings, an abundance of light and glass, plus two outdoor spaces, the design exudes comfort and modern style, but is highly practical too, with brilliant built-in storage, a ground floor garage and secure keypad entry, so you’ll always feel safe. With the very best of the city on your doorstep you won’t need to stray far, including Melbourne’s most hip restaurants and cafes, QV complex, theatre district and trams for effortless transportation.

Once securely inside, the entrance offers richly stained timber floors which step up along a long hallway to two robed bedrooms and a central marble-finished spa bathroom. All three rooms cleverly face into a leafy patio and a bright, light well. Upstairs, the living zone spreads out to include the kitchen and skylit meals, plus living and dining, which also wrap around the void. Exposed beams, a sloping ceiling and full-height glass windows create a chic, industrial look, while the kitchen has a smart, mobile island granite bench, Onyx dual sink, Smeg cooktop, Miele range and dishwasher, security system. For entertaining, slide open the bi-folds to the private, elevated terrace, which faces historic CBD buildings for the ultimate summer barbeque.

Every nook and cranny conceals smart shelves or storage space, and the house also boasts zoned central heating and cooling, full length sun blinds in the living area, Euro laundry under the stairs, and easy access from the garage straight onto Bennetts Lane. This is a single residence with no Body Corporate Fees.
