Last Listing description (September 2024)

Effortlessly cool, this double storey warehouse conversion offers superb inner city living, ideal for professional couples and young families.

Upstairs, the home boasts an impressive large open plan living, dining and kitchen area that excels with its unique curved ceiling, brick feature wall, and large glass windows and doors that let in copious amounts of light. The industrial galley-style kitchen features stainless steel appliances, good storage and looks out to the private balcony, which is the perfect spot to set up the BBQ. Tucked away behind the kitchen is the 3rd bedroom with ensuite, that would also be an ideal space for a home office, studio or guest room.

On the lower floor there are 2 good-sized bedrooms with excellent built-in robes, sleek family bathroom and euro laundry built-in under the stairs.

Recently the home was given an update with new flooring and a fresh coat of paint further lifting the modern space.

The home is one of only five warehouse conversions in 'Kimpton Estate', which was once a working warehouse for the Flour Mill at the end of the street. Steeped in history, a landscaped bluestone paved entrance leads you to this impressive residence located at the rear of the block providing a private and peaceful environment.

Set in an industrial pocket of Kensington at the foot of the historic Young Husband building, the area is primed for growth, making it a great investment for an owner/occupier or investor looking for good rental return.

The home is conveniently located, offering loads of transport options to get you in and out of the city. The address is a short 800m walk to two train stations on two different trainlines, providing regular and convenient services day and night. The Moonee Ponds Creek Trail can be accessed at the end of the street allowing an easy 3.5km ride or walk along the shared path into Docklands and the city. If you choose to take the car out of the secure carpark, in a matter of moments you can be on CityLink.

But there's no need to go too far as you'll love Kensington's village lifestyle, with its warm community, fabulous cafes, shops, playgrounds and amenities.

This contemporary and low maintenance home is bound to excite.
