Art Deco Icon in the Domain

A particularly refined slice of Melbourne’s history, crafted by the renowned architect Arthur W Plaisted, this tastefully renovated, single bedroom apartment is a genuine Art Deco icon in one of Melbourne’s most exclusive positions, between the Botanic Gardens and Fawkner Park. One of only six in the tightly held, securely gated and immaculately maintained ‘Ahlwyn’ building, this first floor apartment also offers some twists of Art Nouveau and the rare prize of a sun-drenched rear terrace with views to the city towers. Bright and white with solid oak flooring and large Deco windows that facilitate an alluring connection to the leafy streetscape, the home is instantly uplifting, with an open-plan living area that is underpinned by a stylish kitchen combination of granite benches and stainless steel appliances, all connected to a divine undercover balcony. With the bedroom well zoned away from living, the apartment also features an oversized garage - with ten metre air rights – as well as an ensuite with walk-in shower and separate powder room, a concealed laundry, split system heating and air conditioning.

Treat the Botanical Gardens as your own exquisite backyard from this iconic Domain position near a first-class selection of cafes, restaurants and bars both on Domain Road and along Toorak Road, plus you have easy access to trams, buses and city-bound trains from South Yarra Railway Station
