Carpeted flooring, modern furniture and a private balcony that sits against a backdrop of expansive views, plus all the mod cons makes this bright and spacious three-bedroom apartment an ideal stay while exploring all the city has to offer. A simple lounge room sits alongside floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors and has a comfortable couch that faces a flat-screen TV, as well as a dedicated working space with a desk and chair. Nearby you’ll find a contemporary kitchen with all the modern appliances including an electric stovetop, fridge, dishwasher, oven and all the cooking basics and utensils. Cook up a storm and dine at the indoor table. Then, step out of the large sliding glass doors and onto your private balcony where you can enjoy a glass of wine amidst uninterrupted views. A master bedroom boasts floor-to-ceiling windows with killer views and has a queen bed dressed in quality linen, built-in mirrored wardrobes and an ensuite with a double shower, modern vanity and complementary towels and toiletries. A second bedroom can sleep two in separate single beds and has built-in wardrobes; while a main bathroom offers more space with a shower over a bathtub, vanity, toilet and a laundry space with a washing machine.

Just six minutes’ walk to Melbourne Central Train Station, with a tram stop that is just two minutes away, you’ll be primely located to explore the very best of the city. Start with brunch at Operator25, a trendy city cafe that’s just a nine-minute walk away; or head around the corner to discover the fresh produce and knick-knacks at Queen Victoria Market. Then meander down to the famous Hardware Lane—brimming with overflowing cafes, restaurants and arguably the city’s best coffee. The best part? The city’s most popular bars and eateries will be on your doorstep. Head to Chinatown and savour authentic dumplings at Empress of China, or head to Pellagrini’s for traditional and laidback Italian fare at a long-standing institution. Then discover the city’s best views and join Melbourne’s elite on level 55 of the Rialto for a high-end cocktail with an unbeatable view at Lui Bar.
