2/173 McKinnon Road

There are three words that make buyers sit up and pay attention: McKinnon Secondary College. This modern apartment is zoned for it, and also for Ormond Primary, with both schools within walking distance. Moreover, it gives you plenty more to love. The layout is spread across two levels. Both bedrooms occupy the ground floor, positioned on either side of a bathroom with shower and toilet, each with built-in robes and a quiet sense of separation from the living spaces above. Upstairs, the living and dining room benefits from the elevation, drawing in natural light generously and stepping out to a private balcony. Stone benchtops, an electric cooktop, oven and dishwasher make up a well-appointed kitchen, with a Euro laundry and pantry tucked neatly within. Two split-system air conditioners and a car space via the rear laneway complete the package. McKinnon Station is metres away, putting the CBD within 25 minutes on a weekday morning. The local shopping and café strip is on the doorstep. Bentleigh Village and the Ormond Shopping Strip are a short drive, North Road buses running to Monash University are nearby, with parks, including Wattle Grove Reserve, McKinnon Reserve and Allnutt Park, scattered in every direction. For investors, first-home buyers or anyone who understands what this school zone means for long-term value, the decision starts and ends with the 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.
