201/23 Kurneh Place, South Yarra, Vic 3141

Enviably positioned in a quiet no-through laneway in the Botanic Gardens precinct, this luxurious, meticulously-built apartment is blessed with a preferred north-facing orientation and offers a low-maintenance, refined lifestyle in a boutique block of just seven apartments.

Designed by architect Rob Mills and featuring his signature use of curves, the magnificent second-floor residence takes its cues from both traditional English mews residences and the nearby Botanic Gardens to deliver the light-filled, contemporary spaces with an indoor/outdoor connection that Mills is known for.

Stepping into the home’s welcoming foyer, you immediately get a sense of the generous proportions and sumptuous interiors that lie within. Venetian polished plaster walls, designed to rebound light inside, and wide European oak floorboards further hint at the attention to detail.

The stunning north-facing, open-plan kitchen, living and dining space features floor-to-ceiling glass sliders which open to make the terrace garden feel like an extension of the home and a perfect spot for a morning coffee or summer entertaining.

Taking centre stage is the impeccably-appointed kitchen which makes a statement with its striking marble waterfall island bench, benchtops and splashbacks, premium Wolf ovens, Sub Zero fridge/freezer and Miele dishwasher. A spacious walk-in pantry adds to the amenity.

The inviting living and dining space benefits from a gas fireplace creating a cosy space to relax in during the cooler months.

Three spacious bedrooms include the magnificent master which is enhanced by an expansive walk-in robe and dressing room and a sublime marble ensuite with double vanity and sculptural freestanding bath. Two further spacious bedrooms also have similarly well-appointed marble ensuites and built-in robes.

Further appointments of this magnificent residence include a marble powder room, fully-fitted laundry, zoned heating and cooling, extensive storage, brass tapware, ZETR power points and switches, double glazing, basement parking for two cars plus storage room, lift access from basement and security entry with CCTV.

Conveniently located within walking distance of Domain Road restaurants, cafes and shopping, trams to the CBD, Fawkner Park, the MCG and Rod Laver Arena, this exclusive sanctuary offers an effortless lock-and-leave lifestyle without compromising on quality, style or space.
