3/9 Joyce St, Elwood, Vic 3184

In a quiet cul-de-sac just moments from the bay, this light & bright ground-floor apartment stands out from its rivals thanks to a large L-shaped courtyard extending the living & entertaining space out into the sun. Situated in a small block of just six and tucked at the end of building, the accommodation opens to a generous lounge offering plenty of space for relaxation and leading through to a practical kitchen taking in private leafy outlooks and providing room for easy meals.

Both of the bedrooms are inviting doubles which offer fitted robes and share a bathroom/laundry with bath, but the true highlight are the dimensions of the sensational alfresco space which wraps around to soak up the northern sun. A roomy shed is an added drawcard, and a gate makes this a secure space, while there is also plenty of room to provide on-site parking still leaving scope for a table. A panel heater in the living room and both bedrooms rounds off an appealing first home or investment opportunity.

The easiest stroll to the beautiful beach and a choice of cafes and boutiques, this highly-desirable locale is also near bus stops and a walk across Elsternwick Park to trams stops and the station.
