**inspections by appointment**

Sitting towards the top of the hill in Kensington Road stands Hastings Court. A well-built circa 1960's apartment building with one of the best and well-maintained internal courtyards in all South Yarra. The layout of apartments means you only have 6 units sharing the same stairwell and one neighbour in your hallway which is great for privacy.
The well-appointed apartment has been fully renovated in recent years from the polished floorboards down below to the ceiling fans in each of the bedrooms and living room up high. The entrance hallway gives a house-like feel to the generous rooms it branches out to. The brand-new kitchen has a stone bench top with stainless steel appliances and plenty of cupboard space. Storage is no issue as the oversized laundry gives you extra space and a built-in washing line if you don't like using the dryer. Sleek and chic the Hampton inspired bathroom leaves nothing to be desired with added benefit of an extra toilet. Both bedrooms could comfortably fit a queen-sized bed with the master allowing space for a study nook if desired. Cosy and comfortable burst straight to mind as you unwind in the living room which features a gas fireplace making it the place to be in winter. When the weather gets warmer going out onto the balcony looking onto your gorgeous internal courtyard gets plenty of sunshine being on the top floor. An undercover carapace completes the picture.

Living in Kensington Road gives you the peace and quiet on gets being at the end of a no through road but close enough proximity for you to be able to walk into the beating heart of South Yarra. There you will find the Como Centre, Toorak Road and Chapel Street which has a cinema, restaurants, and caf?'s not to mention Vogue Plaza with a Woolworths, Big W and fruit shop for your day-to-day needs.
