2/13 Clendon Road, Armadale

Designed by the renowned architect Roy Grounds of the National Gallery of Victoria fame. He also designed Hamer Hall, the Victorian Arts Centre, the heritage listed Wrest Point Casino and a collection of fine local homes. This large, mid-century, studio apartment is a brilliantly conceived slice of Melbourne's architectural history of the 1940s whilst retaining many of his original period features such as the fold down bed, desk, bread and milk delivery box. In a coveted pocket of Armadale, oriented towards the north in a boutique block of only eight, it provides inviting spaces opening out to a beautiful garden setting. The main area has polished timber floors, an open fireplace, a split heating and cooling system. It has its own private garden which adds to the peaceful leafy surrounds. The kitchen has all Bosch appliances - oven, induction cooktop, dishwasher and washing machine. A bar fridge as per the original design is included. The beautifully appointed bathroom, as well as the Council’s permission for two parking permits adds to the appeal of this fine home. There is also a possibility to create off-street car parking (STCA). The proximity to Beatty Avenue and Rose Street’s charming village, and to High Street Shops including many cafes, bars and restaurants, enhances this property’s desirability. Public transport is close by including 3 options - bus, tram and train.
