31/177 Power Street
Hawthorn

As it combines a dynamic urban lifestyle with breath-taking city views and the genuinely calming tranquility of a back-of-the-block, tree-surrounded setting, this large (90sqm approx.), two bedroom, older-style apartment is well elevated and full of surprises. Yes, the address is high-profile and central to everything, but its leafy situation is so removed from the street that the level of privacy and serenity is almost surreal.

Incredibly quiet and secluded, yet framing stunning CBD views, the home's modern kitchen/meals/living is 'L shaped' enabling it to offer a sense of separation whilst retaining a modern flow, all opening to a lovely balcony. Vast older-style proportions give way to two deluxe-sized bedrooms, each with robes - one with space enough for a desk - and a large bathroom with separate WC. Importantly, for such a thriving urban position, there is parking and the unique privilege of opening onto exquisite communal gardens with a water feature.

Offering easy city access, the allure of this dynamic position extends also to the ability to wander the banks of the Yarra River, to shop at Glenferrie Rd, enjoy the cafes, restaurants and bars of the Glenferrie region or even hit the nightlife of Swan St. Proximity to Swinburne University further enhances the investor appeal of this vibrant inner-urban apartment.
