Queenscliff VIC 3225

Located in Queenscliffs historically significant Ballroom Apartments complex, this three bedroom, one bathroom, two powder room home has been beautifully reimagined as the ultimate luxury retreat. One of seven apartments, it is the only one that has seen such extensive renovation - with a new kitchen, new bathroom and enviable luxe finishes paying homage to the 19th century buildings glamorous past. Whilst the immediate surrounds are quiet and secure, it could not be better located, just steps away from the towns many cafes, restaurants, parkland and beaches.

Beyond the beautifully manicured communal garden, a private entryway leads into the lower of three levels. White marble tiles line the hallway whilst a striking chandelier accents a black glass feature wall behind. Once a basement and wine cellar, this intriguing space now holds a stunning new bathroom, adjacent powder room and the first of three bedrooms. The bathrooms one-way reflective glass walls at-once provide privacy from the hall whilst creating the feel of a much extended space. A free standing bath, large rain shower, pedestal basin and high quality black tapware complete a truly desirable wet room. Adopting the same glass partition wall, the lower bedroom is serene, with plush carpet, chandelier, built in robe and window to the rear alleyway.

A black spiral staircase winds up into an open plan kitchen/living/dining area. The original double-height window maintains its stained glass grandeur, whilst the north light illuminates a central Italian chandelier. The new kitchen is sleek and luxurious, with white marble benchtops, Miele appliances, brass tapware and an Oliveri sink with sliding cutting-board top. A relaxed dining area meets the main living space - with its own reverse cycle air conditioning - sitting beneath the ornate curved ceiling above. Atop the spiral staircase, the third level benefits from the ballrooms original curves. The landing offers built-in storage, whilst plush carpet lines the entire space. One bedroom lies under the curved white ceiling, with a window to the rear, whilst the third bedroom, with its chandelier lighting overlooks the northern window and features its own powder room with designer vanity.
