8/8 Beach Avenue, Elwood, Vic 3184

The quintessential Art Deco dream, perfectly situated in one of Elwood’s most keenly sought-after streets, this superb, two bedroom apartment has been tastefully renovated to enhance its rich original character with a sympathetic contemporary twist, all within a beautifully garden-surrounded collection of only eight. Benefiting from a privileged first floor / top floor position that overlooks tranquil communal rear North-West gardens and the leafy streetscape, this is an idyllic residence nestled between the village’s vibrancy & convenience and the soothing open expanses of the waterfront at the end of the street.

Large light-letting windows with plantation shutters frame leafy treetop vistas to enhance the fine detail and polished timber floors of a spacious living/lounge – with a wood fire heater – and an adjoining dining room, all of which is removed from a subway-tiled kitchen where stone benches are complemented by stainless steel appliances and an eye-catching black sink. Overlooking communal gardens that are the perfect place to lose yourself in a book or unwind with friends, the home also features secure entry, rear carport off-street parking and built-in robes in the primary bedroom, as well as ducted heating, air conditioning, a concealed laundry and additional generous 'lined' attic storage.

Simply stroll around the corner to immerse yourself in the terrific cafes, bars, restaurants and village vibes of Ormond Road, plus you have the best of Barkly Street and Acland Street nearby, as well as buses, Brighton Road trams and city-bound trains from Elsternwick Railway Station.
