5/34 Mitford Street

Elwood VIC 3184

Come and inspect this historically significant jaw-dropping example of Victorian era architecture with hints of Italian renaissance glamour throughout. You won't know whether you are in a St Kilda/Elwood apartment, the Palace Of Versailles, a European museum or a British Parliament house when you stand in your mansion-sized lounge while you'll feel like King Louis XVI in the opulent master bedroom that's graced with wonderful aspects of the amazing arches, Italianate-style return verandah and architect-designed landscaped gardens surrounding the majestic block. Taking up the front position of the complex, it also boasts a good-size second bedroom, modern granite kitchen, huge bathroom, stunningly high ceilings, exquisite leadlight, private car space and grand Gone With The Wind style communal entry foyer with sweeping staircase. Built for St Kilda's first bank manager in the Gold Rush of 1875, and he would have demanded only the very best, this one will be like gold for you. It's definitely one of the best older-style apartments you'll see. Walk to Acland Street for lazy weekend brunches, the Botanical Gardens and the beach.
