13/12-12A Maryville Street

This renovated two-bedroom apartment in 'Somerleyton', a boutique c1937 Art Deco block of just 14, has held onto everything that makes the building special, from the manicured lawns and water feature out front to the ornate ceilings inside. In one of the area's most peaceful corners, the block forms part of the original 1930s Brunning Nursery Estate subdivision, a landmark setting that still carries its period presence beautifully. Today, it offers the chance to claim a piece of that story. A dedicated entrance hall opens to a generous living and dining room where original floorboards run beneath ornate ceilings, with an ornamental fireplace adding the final period note. Split-system air conditioning keeps things liveable year-round, while the modern kitchen and meals area pairs crisp white cabinetry with a dishwasher, washing machine taps and room to spread out when cooking. Two well-proportioned bedrooms sit privately at the rear, served by a contemporary bathroom finished in classic white subway tiles for a clean, hotel-crisp feel. The whole interior presents immaculately, with a warmth and light that complement the thoughtful updates. There's nothing to do but move in. A car space is included, though this is one of those lifestyle addresses where walking soon becomes a habit. Ripponlea Station and trams sit footsteps from the door, with Ripponlea Village just around the corner for cafés, bakeries, bars and restaurants, including the world-famous Attica. Rippon Lea Estate offers leafy grounds for weekend wandering, and the beach is an easy stroll away. Zoned for St Kilda Primary and Elwood College, it offers an elegant entry into one of the city's most distinctive heritage locales.
