SOLD BY JOHN MANNING This house-sized apartment in a boutique Art Deco-style block of four has one of the biggest courtyards you'll see anywhere. North-facing, with decked, paved and grassed areas, and enough room for a long table, twenty people, a sunbaking session, a garden, or all of the above. It faces the right direction, draws in the afternoon light, and on a warm evening it's the only place you'll want to be. Finding a courtyard like this attached to a house would be a win. Finding it here is extraordinary.Inside the scale continues with a central hallway separating all the accommodation. The living room has high ceilings, floorboards and built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves framing a double doorway through to the dining room, which doubles easily as a third bedroom or home office. The kitchen has a personality all of its own with teal cabinetry, chequerboard black-and-white floor tiles, black benchtops and white subway tile splashbacks.Both bedrooms are fitted with robes, while the main has double doors straight onto the deck and the courtyard beyond. The modern bathroom features a shower-over-the-bath and a separate toilet. There's also a full independent laundry, split-system air conditioning throughout, leafy outlooks, secure intercom entry, a car space and a storage shed.Zoned for St Kilda Primary and Elwood College and positioned in the middle of everything that makes this part of bayside exceptional. The beach is a walk away. So are Elwood Village's and Acland Street's restaurants, shops and caf culture, Jerry's Milk Bar for your morning coffee, and nearby Clarke Reserve and the St Kilda Botanical Gardens for relaxation. Ripponlea Station and trams running in every direction are close too. Apartments like this rarely come onto the market. The courtyard alone makes it worth a look, but it's the whole package that makes it hard to walk away from.All information provided, including floorplans, room dimensions, and land size, is indicative only and intended for general guidance.
