Opposite Carlton gardens — Rathdowne street living at its finest

Set within a classically styled apartment building directly opposite the iconic Carlton Gardens, this well-appointed one-bedroom apartment offers a compelling opportunity to enjoy connected inner-city living with green space right across the road.
Inside, the open-plan living and dining area is the heart of the home, generously proportioned, with dark carpet underfoot and a striking charcoal feature wall framing glazed doors that open onto a private balcony lush with established greenery. City skyline glimpses complete the outlook. The galley-style kitchen is well-fitted with warm timber cabinetry, white tile splashback, oven, dishwasher, and fridge.
The bedroom is comfortably sized and comes with dual built-in robes. The combined bathroom and laundry features a bath with shower, WC, vanity, and the convenience of an in-built washer/dryer. A dedicated car space completes the offering.
The location is exceptional. You’re just steps from the iconic Carlton Gardens and the Melbourne Museum, with the vibrant cafés and restaurants of Lygon Street and the Melbourne CBD within easy reach. A short stroll takes you to the Queen Victoria Market, while trams on nearby Nicholson Street provide quick access to the CBD. Both the University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus and RMIT University’s Melbourne City campus are conveniently close, making this location ideal for work, study, and leisure.
We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
