135 Eastern Road, South Melbourne, Vic 3205

A divine design by multi-awarded Cera Stribley is taken to a whole new level of refinement by artisan craftsmanship, an unwavering commitment to quality and a range of exquisite natural materials in this brand new residence less than 2km from the CBD. Without question, this architectural pedigree places it in rare real estate company, but the inclusion of a bespoke heated pool and entertainers' rooftop with front-and-centre CBD views truly places it in an inner-city league of its own.

Quietly composed amongst Eastern Road's leafy, tree-lined streetscape, a sculptural brick façade and elegant reeded-glass entry introduce the sophisticated spaces beyond. Soaring 3m ceilings, full-height double-glazed windows and herringbone oak floors instantly create a superb sense of space and light, while a range of carefully coordinated premium finishes and extensive custom storage complete a home of easy, lock-up-and-leave luxury.

Elegant open plan living and dining areas are defined by a dramatic Italian marble kitchen featuring Smeg appliances (900mm cooktop), integrated fridge/freezer and an inspired central island with hidden storage and dedicated dining. Full-height sliding glass doors connect to a travertine-paved courtyard where an exquisite bespoke pool lined with glass mosaic tiles forms a captivating centrepiece. A ground floor bedroom with extensive robes and bathroom provides the option of living at ground floor level, while a glass-enclosed feature staircase rises to an open study/office with built-in desk and two private bedrooms, one with robes served by an adjoining bathroom, the generous main with a wall of custom robes/storage and ensuite. Above, the rooftop terrace awaits, its expansive decked areas and Italian marble BBQ kitchen a private open-air retreat designed for relaxing or entertaining, surrounded by period rooftops, contemporary buildings and the commanding CBD skyline.

Further highlights include ground floor laundry, multi-zoned ducted heating and air conditioning, three fully tiled bathrooms with moody feature tiling and brushed nickel tapware, designer lighting, double glazing, custom-designed heated pool and CCTV security.

In a quiet tree-lined pocket between the Royal Botanic Gardens, Albert Park Lake and Clarendon Street, the address brings an exceptional range of Melbourne's experiences into everyday life. Days begin with a lakeside walk, a workout at MSAC or a run around the Tan. Work from home, enjoy an afternoon by the pool, then entertain friends as the sun sets on the CBD skyline. Stroll to Kings Domain, the Gardens, and the Shrine of Remembrance; catch a tram to the CBD, Arts Precinct or Casino, to South Melbourne Market or even the Beach. Walk along Clarendon Street past famous shops, artisan boutiques, cafes and restaurants, or enjoy the myriad of local pubs and bars, so much a part of South Melbourne's culture. A rare and remarkable inner-city offering indeed.
