4/2 Lucy Street, Gardenvale, Vic 3185

Claim your position in a tightly-held Gardenvale precinct with this gorgeous garden apartment only steps from Martin Street. An enviable entry with village vibes and Bayside perks, this is a rare gateway to a blue chip lifestyle, where you can relish the sheer convenience of vibrant cafes, trendy wine bars, renowned restaurants, gourmet grocers and the city-bound train at your doorstep.

Tucked away yet so close to everything, the boutique property’s peace and privacy is further enhanced by a glass-entry and established greenery. A Terrazzo foyer leads up to the generously proportioned, first floor home aglow with natural light and modern retro style. Contemporary polished concrete floors are a nod to the building's mid-century origins, while a movable granite-topped island is one of many designer touches.

A mirrored entrance introduces the generous living area offering ample space for relaxation and entertainment. The open-plan kitchen features sleek stainless steel appliances, custom-cabinetry including a pantry with pull-out storage, and a sizable space for casual dining. It also offers a servery window to a west-facing balcony that provides a sunny spot for al fresco moments, sunset aperitifs, and even room for a WeberQ.

Two robed bedrooms enhance overall appeal, the main is over-sized and boasts custom-fitted robes. A stylish bathroom and separate WC along with an adjacent laundry offer future possibilities. Enjoy the comfort of reverse cycle air conditioning (living and bedroom), the security of an intercom entry and extra outdoor space afforded by a grassy residents garden.

Leave the car at home in your own under cover off-street parking space right next to the stairs and stroll to the wonderful attractions of Martin Street. Also within minutes of Church and Bay streets, and the beach, this apartment's leafy surrounding, and prime location, make it an attractive investment opportunity, an excellent choice for a first property or even a beachside bolthole.
