15/397 Murray Road, Preston, Vic 3072

Set well back from the street, this modern townhouse integrates a creative design with top-quality features to deliver a lifestyle of low-maintenance perfection that’s both blissfully quiet and enviably convenient.

The leafy front courtyard gives way to a refined interior showcasing two generous bedrooms with built-in robes complemented by a deluxe ensuite and equally-stylish main bathroom – both with frameless showers and floor-to-ceiling tiles.

Spacious, versatile and filled with natural light, the open-plan living/dining area is accompanied by a sleek stone-bench kitchen complete with soft-close cabinetry, Smeg cooking appliances and integrated dishwasher.

High square-set ceilings, split-system heating/cooling, European laundry facilities and extra-large storage cupboards all add to the allure, plus a full-width balcony, private courtyard, secure lower-level parking space and bike room.

A short stroll to Gilbert Road trams, local buses and Preston Station, it’s also close to High Street cafes, specialty shops and the buzz of Preston Market, along with popular parks, schools and Melbourne Polytechnic.
