About this property

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of the CBD, on the quieter garden end of A'Beckett Street, the highly sought-after Istana complex offers a peaceful living environment surrounded by greenery. The location is second to none, within walking distance to Queen Victoria Market, Flagstaff Gardens and Flagstaff Station, Melbourne Central, and free city trams. It is also conveniently close to renowned educational institutions including RMIT University, University of Melbourne, and within the University High School zone. Positioned on the 8th floor, this well-proportioned apartment comprises two bedrooms, two bathrooms (including a master ensuite), and one secure car space, with pleasant outlooks towards the city skyline and gardens. The thoughtfully designed floorplan maximises space and ensures a practical, flowing layout. Enjoying a desirable north-facing aspect, the open-plan living and dining area is filled with natural light and offers attractive views towards Flagstaff Gardens and Queen Victoria Market. The modern kitchen is well-appointed with a large granite benchtop, soft-close cabinetry, ample storage, SMEG appliances, and a stylish glass splashback. The master bedroom features a generous ensuite and built-in robes, while the second bedroom provides direct access to a spacious private balcony. Additional features include built-in robes in both bedrooms, a Euro laundry, reverse-cycle heating and cooling, and video intercom. Residents also enjoy access to premium facilities including a heated indoor pool, spa, sauna, gym, media room, and concierge service for added security and convenience. Regarded as one of the more desirable 2-bedroom layouts within the complex, this apartment presents an excellent opportunity for both owner-occupiers and investors alike.
