5/92 Barkly Street, St Kilda

Set in a small, well-kept Art Deco block, this renovated apartment is north-facing, light-filled and more generous than the norm. The updates have been handled thoughtfully with a designer's eye. Nothing feels forced or overdone. The living and dining room is comfortable and beautifully styled, with polished timber floors, a fireplace and generous proportions that work equally well for quiet evenings or dinner parties. Double glass French doors open into a sunroom or study that's likely to become your favourite spot. An arched window frames leafy trees so closely it feels like they're part of the room, with additional windows on two sides bringing in even more light. It works just as well for a desk as it does for a daybed and a book. Across the hall, the modern kitchen features stainless-steel benchtops and a dishwasher and opens directly to an outdoor deck. The bedroom sits beyond the entry, fitted with built-in robes and split-system heating and cooling. The bathroom stays true to its Art Deco roots with a crisp black-and-white finish and shower over bath, updated without losing its integrity. Storage has been carefully considered, with shelving in the entry, plus there's secure building access and a dedicated car space. You're an easy walk from Fitzroy Street, Acland Street, the beach, Alma Park, and the Botanical Gardens. You can head out for dinner, a swim or a long walk without planning anything.
