5 / 49A Kensington Road
South Yarra

Prestigiously situated on the crest of one of South Yarra’s most exclusive tree-lined boulevards, this superbly renovated single bedroom apartment is just a short stroll from Toorak Road. A soothing haven of mid-century style with a relentless lifestyle proposition, this apartment offers a combination that is hard to match. Floor to ceiling windows overlook the exquisite garden of the sought-after ‘Hastings Court’ building. Conveniently set on the ground floor with carport parking, you can leave the car at home and enjoy a ‘walk-everywhere’ lifestyle of the Toorak/South Yarra precinct with endless cafes, fine dining, thriving bars, city access and iconic urban parkland.

Polished hardwood flooring perfectly complements a ‘cooks’ kitchen complete with stone benches, Smeg Range and integrated appliances in the kitchen / dining / living that center’s around a visually striking, stone-waterfall island bench set under attractive pendant lighting. Fully renovated, the apartment offers reverse cycle heating and air conditioning for year-round comfort. The generous bedroom is a sanctuary with all the built-in robes and storage one could want.

The bathroom is a genuine showpiece, fully tiled with underfloor heating, a floating wall-mounted vanity and a rainwater shower. As a bonus the laundry is tastefully concealed within the bathroom.

This is a first-class opportunity to embrace the lifestyle appeal and impressive investment credentials of this iconic location near Toorak Road’s thriving café scene, and boutique shopping. While Chapel Street, the Como Centre and all modes of transport are within easy reach, both the Yarra River trails and Botanic Gardens are nearby for outdoor recreation.
