St Kilda East VIC 3183

Nestled in boutique mansion of five units, 4/89a Alma Rd is an impeccably refurbished unit of grand proportions. Beneath its jaw dropping 12 foot ceilings are two large light-filled bedrooms, a spacious and sunny living room, big separate dining room, kitchen, bathroom with laundry facilities and a roomy terrace as well as one on-title parking space. The property also includes private intercom security entrances, Art Deco details, Rinnai temperature-controlled hot water, smart fan lights and period fittings. The first-floor unit has a 5-star energy rating, fire and acoustic separations, modern wiring, plumbing, heating. Not a cent to spend.
At 120sqm this unit is substantially larger than most. It's metres from a large park, 10 minutes' walk to Balaclava or Windsor Stations, and approx. 20m from Chapel St tram. The unit is set in extensive common grounds, set well back from the street, giving it a quiet charm. The vendors have owned this property for 30 years - this is the first time since 1994 it has been on the market.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase one of the unique units in historic Kangatong Mansion. The building dates from 1861 at the start of the gold rush. It was subdivided in 2010 and fully refurbished. It is listed on the "Melbourne's Mansions" website. It was re-designed by Mewton & Grounds (yes, the Roy Grounds who designed the NGV) as apartments in 1933.
