11 Emerald Street, South Melbourne, Vic 3205

Central to South Melbourne's array of lifestyle attractions, this sun-soaked modern retreat offers flexible easy living with garage parking for two amid an exclusive and esteemed city fringe streetscape.

With first-rate finishes and impressive proportions, a function-focused interior sees excellent storage and two stylish bathrooms accompany substantial up and downstairs bedrooms, with a private balcony enhancing a luxe upper suite. Making optimal use of its ideal aspect, a soaring ceiling and high-set windows bathe an open second storey in all-day sunlight, with a considerable living/dining domain flowing seamlessly into a north-facing terrace with sweeping city vistas. Comfortably catering for evenings with friends, a stone-top entertainer's kitchen features a broad bench and upscale Smeg appliances, while further highlights to the home include hardwood floors, split system heating and cooling, walk-in and built-in robes, European laundry, 2.5-car garage (accessible via wide ROW) and no body corporate.

A low-maintenance prospect serving as a stress-free investment, inner-city base, or hybrid living/working environment, it's a short walk to the thriving South Melbourne Market, along with easy access to the Albert Park Village St Vincent Gardens, Albert Park Lake, and MSAC. With Port Phillip Bay just moments away, it's metres from a selection of trams and buses, while nearby freeways afford quick and easy exit from the city.
