A full suite of Miele appliances, stone benchtops and a commanding island with breakfast bar set the tone. The layout is refined and considered, flowing naturally into the living and dining zone and out through bi-folding doors to a beautifully landscaped private alfresco, secluded and composed.An architectural staircase draws the eye upward to the first level, reserved entirely for the main bedroom retreat. A private balcony, walls of built-in robes and a spa-calibre bathroom complete with freestanding bath, separate shower, double floating vanities and striking Bisazza tiles deliver the kind of finish that needs no further qualification. The top level accommodates two additional ensuite bedrooms, both with robes and one with its own balcony.Further appointments include a ground-floor powder room, timber floors, split-system air conditioning, video-monitored entry, storage cage, laundry and two secure car spaces. Step outside and St Kilda's world-class lifestyle is immediately yours. World-class cafes and restaurants, Acland Street and Carlisle Street, trams, Luna Park, the Palais Theatre and the beach are all within easy walking distance. This is a home for an owner who understands the difference between quality and compromise.
