39/11 The Avenue, St Kilda East, Vic 3183

Accessed via the lovely central gardens of a well-maintained and supremely secure complex, this ground floor 2-bedroom apartment is set to the quiet back of the block and enjoys a particularly tranquil ambiance and the absolute rarity of both a front and rear courtyard.

With a comfortable living room accompanied by a kitchen featuring Blanco appliances, a Miele dishwasher and a Euro laundry, the north-facing courtyard takes in the verdant greenery of the communal gardens, while the rear space is perfect for alfresco meals, with the leafy canopy of overhanging trees providing for an idyllic outdoor setting.

Both of the double bedrooms have mirrored built-in robes and are serviced by a bathroom with a shower recess, a separate bathtub and a handy separate WC.

Including single garage parking and new timber floorboards, wonderful proximity to the cafes, shops and trains of both Ripponlea and Balaclava is just the cherry on the cake for this private and peaceful gem.
