Warehouse chic, luxury feel in apartment by the Yarra

Live in high-end high-rise style with this stunning, 2nd floor apartment in an incredible riverside Abbotsford location. Just 3km from the CBD yet only a short stroll from the sprawling parklands around Dights Falls and Galatea Point, this exclusive apartment is part of the BYFAS Yarra Falls complex, a 2005 warehouse conversation of an old silk and cotton mill that retains the distinctive elements and art deco signage of the original 1937 building.

Stepping into the large entry hall, straight away you feel the sense of spacious and sophistication that defines the residence. The design elements are striking, with black polished-concrete floors, exposed ductwork (a tip to its industrial past), floor to ceiling windows, and eye-catching 4.5m high ceilings. The huge open living area finds light streaming in, and opens out to two generously-sized balconies, perfect for taking in the morning sunshine.

The kitchen features stylish stainless steel Miele appliances (oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher), plentiful bench and cupboard space, and a walk-in pantry. The living area steps up to a first-floor mezzanine level, a secluded space offering a lounge room on pale floorboards, and a private work-from-home office space.

The bright master bedroom adjoins an ensuite with double sinks, spa bath, shower, and storage cupboard. The second bedroom features double built-in robes and an abundance of natural light, and steps out onto its own private balcony. Next to it sits a bathroom with shower and Euro laundry space. There’s ducted central heating/cooling throughout. The property also comes with title carspace and storage area in garage.

This brilliant apartment sits just a few steps away from the Yarra River. Stroll along the Main Yarra Trail, to scenic Dights Falls and Studley Park Boathouse. Walk over to the Abbotsford Convent, with its bakery, arts spaces, Children’s Farm, and farmers market. You’re steps from bars, cafés, restaurants, and a supermarket on Johnston Street, and an easy stroll over to Smith Street’s vibrant shopping strip. Buses to the city run along Johnston Street, and you’re in walking distance to Victoria Park train station. Zoned to Collingwood College.

We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence and social isolation.
