House sized ground floor apartment enjoying large private courtyard garden
Designed by Arthur W Plaisted, built in 1923 and set amongst beautiful communal gardens with glasshouse, this 'Old English' house sized two-bedroom ground floor apartment in the heritage listed 'Hartpury Court' is packed with period detail. Each room displays unique character: large central living room with open fireplace, study/sunroom with stained glass windows with views across the gardens, second bedroom with reading nook, pristine bathroom and main bedroom filled with northern light. Well situated within this historic development, this remarkable apartment features 'arts and crafts' style interiors, including a timber dresser and servery linking the dining room with the well-equipped kitchen (Smeg oven, Euro laundry). Moments from the beach, St Kilda Botanic gardens, Tennyson Street and Ormond Road shops, Brighton Road trams and Ripponlea train station. This one-of-a-kind residence includes original leadlight, striking ceiling beams and polished timber floors as well as a cellar (currently sealed), secure gated intercom entry and car parking directly accessed via own private courtyard.
