18/175 Power Street

Privately positioned at the rear of the block and set back onto quiet Lisson Grove despite its 175 Power Street address, this top-floor apartment delivers space, light and timeless mid-century character in a tightly held riverside pocket of Hawthorn. Designed by renowned architect Norman Brendel (c.1960), the home showcases the generous proportions and extensive glazing that define the era. Natural light streams in from multiple aspects, highlighting the soaring ceilings, dramatic full-height windows and the expansive living and dining domain that opens to a charming east-facing balcony with a leafy outlook, the perfect spot for a morning coffee. The updated kitchen is well appointed with gas cooking and excellent pantry storage, while two exceptionally large bedrooms, both with built-in robes, are serviced by a central bathroom with bathtub and separate toilet. Comfortable to enjoy immediately with scope to further enhance over time, the apartment also features split system heating and cooling, a study alcove, internal laundry facilities, excellent hallway storage, undercover parking and secure entry within this boutique block of just 18 homes. A pleasant surprise city skyline glimpse from the entry adds another unique touch. Set within a tightly held and celebrated building only six kilometres from the CBD, this home is perfectly positioned to enjoy endless walks and cycling along the Yarra River trails while balancing a lifestyle enriched by the very best cafés, restaurants and bars of both Richmond, Hawthorn and Camberwell. Well serviced by city-bound trams for effortless commuting, the apartment also offers easy access to Melbourne's renowned sporting and entertainment precincts, elite schools including Melbourne Girls' College, and the village precincts of Auburn and Hawthorn.
