Enviably situated in an iconic heritage building, this spectacular warehouse conversion combines unrivalled style, space and character with the effortless comfort and convenience of luxury city apartment living.

The substantial residence of approx. 215sqm is nestled in the tightly-held Leicester House, a heritage-listed 1886 building with an impressive faade of gothic and Romanesque features. It was transformed into a select group of boutique apartments in the early 2000s, each showcasing expansive proportions, high-end materials and a sophisticated warehouse feel that has stood the test of time.

Entering the extraordinary second-floor apartment, the eye is immediately drawn to the soaring three and a half metre ceilings, elegant arches, exposed beams, stunning Jarrah flooring and enormous double-hung feature windows which flood the apartment with natural light.

Wonderfully quiet thanks to the custom-built internal double glazing, the exquisitely presented apartment's visionary design offers the very best in sumptuous living.

The vast dining area is an entertainer's dream, just waiting for the first of many dinner parties. It's overlooked by a gourmet kitchen blessed with a breathtaking marble island to gather around, Miele/Smeg appliances including a five burner gas hob and extensive cabinetry.

The adjoining living area offers plenty of space for relaxing and is another peaceful spot in which to take in the views of Flinders Lane below. The warehouse-style apartment which, although common in New York, is relatively rare in Melbourne also benefits from a large study with built-in desk and shelving which satisfies today's work from home environment.
Two spacious bedrooms include the serene master with a wall of built-in robes and a fully-tiled ensuite with marble floors. The second bedroom with built-in robe is serviced by another crisp bathroom with bath and shower.
Other features of this effortlessly comfortable city oasis include lift access to basement car parking, hydronic heating, full-sized laundry with drying cupboard, ceiling fans, a Murano glass chandelier, feature track lighting and a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquillity that belies its location.
Perfectly positioned near to an array of cafes and restaurants, Collins Street's high-end boutiques, the Arts Centre and National Gallery, Treasury Gardens, Federation Square Arts precinct and Melbourne's sporting arenas, this is an exceptional lifestyle opportunity for the discerning buyer.
