9/8 Bluff Avenue

Encapsulating everything that makes the Golden Mile such an iconic location, this spacious, two-bedroom Art Deco classic within the boutique 'Corio', revels in the brilliance of a beachside lifestyle with circa-1930s heritage and unrivalled independence through a large and lush courtyard entrance. One of only four in a tree-lined street, and less than 100m from Elwood Foreshore Reserve and the water beyond, this beautifully renovated home pairs garden serenity with sun-drenched interiors, where high ceilings enhance the north-west orientation throughout. Two generously proportioned bedrooms are bathed in natural light and share a modern bathroom with integrated laundry facilities, while the garden-facing living room retains the charm of an original ornate Edwardian fireplace. The kitchen has been thoughtfully upgraded with sleek stone benches, Westinghouse cooking appliances and excellent storage, positioned for easy access to the secure rear car space, making light work of unloading the weekly shopping haul. Year-round enjoyment is assured with ducted heating, while summer months are best enjoyed with the front door open to a private, leafy courtyard, where an undercover porch invites relaxed afternoons, and the fenced gardens offer plenty of space for those who enjoy being outdoors. Set on the edge of Elwood's Paris end, with a short walk into the village for coffee, groceries and late-night wines at a choice of popular bars, it offers an enviable lifestyle in a truly unbeatable tree-lined position, where Ormond Point sunsets over the city are your new everyday moment, and access to the CBD is quick and efficient with nearby transport routes.
