15/494A Glenferrie Road

Set high on prestigious Scotch Hill and tucked quietly at the rear of the block, this renovated top-floor apartment offers generous proportions from an era when space was not an afterthought, with natural light arriving from the east, north and west across the course of the day. The layout is instantly easy to live with. The entry leads to two light filled bedrooms on either side of the hall, one with a walk-in robe and the other with built-ins, plus ceiling fans in each. Nearby, the modern bathroom includes integrated laundry facilities and a bench for folding and sorting, along with a separate toilet. The premium kitchen is smartly appointed with a Bosch stainless-steel under-bench oven, gas cooktop and Miele dishwasher, while the central island bench serves as both a workspace and a breakfast bar, sitting comfortably between the kitchen and the dining area. From here, the semi-open plan design flows through to the living room, seamlessly opening to the balcony that catches the afternoon sunshine and looks over the leafy surrounds. A split-system air conditioner, intercom entry and two car spaces add the finishing touches, with the second space a genuine bonus. Kooyong Station is within easy reach, with trams along Riversdale Road and Glenferrie Road. Supermarkets, cafés, shops and parkland are all nearby. While Swinburne University, Scotch College, Gardiners Creek Trail and the Yarra River precinct further underline the convenience, Zoned for Glenferrie Primary School and Auburn High School, adding family appeal. With the updates complete, the only decision left is when to move to this blue-chip address. 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.
