Smart, Low-Maintenance Living Steps from Flagstaff Gardens
Some apartments just make city life easier, and this one is a good example. The living area opens onto a private balcony, a handy spot for a morning coffee or a few minutes of fresh air after work, with leafy treetops and a glimpse of West Melbourne's brick heritage rooftops beyond. Inside, the layout is tidy and easy to furnish, with plenty of natural light.
At 32m², every corner has been put to work. The kitchen is compact and well appointed, with stone-look benchtops, a mirrored splashback, an electric cooktop, a microwave recess, a pantry and space for a fridge. The bedroom has generous built-in storage, including overhead cupboards and wardrobes around the bed, so the floor space stays clear. The ensuite is bright and clean, with a frameless glass shower and a wide vanity with a large mirror.
The location keeps daily life simple. Flagstaff Gardens is right at the end of the street for lunch breaks, weekend walks and the tennis courts. ALDI and Queen Victoria Market are close for groceries and fresh produce, and there are plenty of good dining options nearby, including Taiwan Village, Hua Lu Peking Duck and Mansae Korean BBQ. Flagstaff Station and the Spencer St and La Trobe St tram stops are within walking distance, and Southern Cross Station is a short trip further south for regional and interstate connections.
