Home Description
Description of the home
Designer pad/own rooftop/Ensuite/Private/Walk everywhere
Just like your own designer house. Only share with 1 other who lives in the terrace part of the house downstairs.
In the middle of the fashionable design/tech district just across the river from South Yarra is this renovated, architect-designed home. Fully furnished, you have the whole of the 1st floor of the modern designer extension including ensuite, as well as the rooftop with sweeping city views.
Walking distance to most major sporting stadiums, Church St/Swan St/Chapel Street precints and Botanical Gardens. Fitness First is literally a block away.
This is part of a 110 year-old terrace house with a 2-story modernist extension at the back with an internal courtyard, back garden and frontyard. The floor, or what the architect calls 'parent's retreat' contains an open-plan design with a large floor-to-ceiling wardrobe, a desk, beside table, drawers and cabinet. Note that some of the furniture items may have been swapped (and rooftop may look a bit different, instead of the wooden blocks there is a large metal outdoor table and chairs) but the pictures show the conditions before the current tenant moved in.
Share the kitchen with only 1 female professional (30s) who lives downstairs with her own bathroom (in the older part of the house). The other bedroom downstairs I'm using for storage.
The downstairs open plan living and dining area are decorated with Danish designer mid-century furniture including Poul Henningsen lamps, imported Danish chairs and lounge, and teak sideboard. The kitchen has all modern facilities including Smeg, Fischer & Paykel appliances (dishwasher, washing machine, Caesar stone benchtop, etc.). Other appliances include portable aircon.
Access to:
- Super Fast and UNLIMITED wifi (fastest tier)
- Frontyard, backyard and middle courtyard
In the middle of the Richmond designer precinct and extremely convenient. Walk to 2 train stations (Richmond and East Richmond) and as well as 2 tram stations (Church St & Swan St) within 4-8 minutes. There are at least 15 coffee shops within 1 block from the house, lots of restaurants close by, etc.. Coles supermarket is 5 min walk.
Seeking those who can clean after themselves, look after the house as their own, are trustworthy, don't party in the house (quiet social gathering is fine), and pay on time.
