Centenary Apartments in sought-after Bentleigh East might just be the perfect example of a collection of contemporary apartments with the sentiment of a spacious suburban home.

Developer Valeo has brought a sophistication to the design of these one, two and three bedroom residences. And with only 22 homes in total, this is a truly boutique living option nestled in Bentleigh East’s leafy streets.

The clever combination of textures, colouring and materials that make up Centenary’s facade, including brick, metal and concrete, give the building a unique character that doesn’t impose on the surrounding streetscape. And access to these premium apartments is through a leafy, tranquil atrium – this urban oasis offers quite the welcome home.

The team at innovative interior architecture practice Studio Tate has brought their original thinking to Centenary, resulting in exquisite interiors layered with natural timber, terrazzo stone and concrete finishes.

The neutral palette of whites and greys creates a perfectly harmonious backdrop for contemporary living, whilst the oversized and open plan living areas with generously high ceilings give you plenty of light-filled space in which to do it.

Kitchens are fitted out with the latest appliances from Fisher & Paykel and Miele. Here, the high level of craftsmanship in the cabinetry, impressive fixtures and a large island bench all work together to create the kind of entertainer’s space that really adds another level to a home. The elegant feature pendant light over the bench is particularly smart.

Outdoor spaces at Centenary are spacious, to say the least, offering real indoor-outdoor living, relaxing and entertaining in your own private haven. Be they ground floor gardens or balcony terraces, the living area glazing opens out onto these spaces for complete fluidity of movement.

Bedrooms offer a space to retreat, with soft wool carpeting. And bathrooms and ensuites add yet further luxury with a suspended vanity basin complete with storage, mirrored cabinetry, more contemporary tapware and yet another feature pendant lighting element.

There’s plenty of storage and clever thinking throughout these apartments, and Valeo has used their design and construction expertise to ensure each achieves a 6-star energy rating for a smaller carbon footprint and reduced energy bills.

Anyone who knows Bentleigh East understands its ongoing popularity. Established yet never resting, the cafe culture here is fast becoming one of the most highly praised in Melbourne. Popular haunts include mightily cool Merchant’s Guild, Astroluxe, District Brewer and Little Tommy Tucker for delicious eats and great coffee, plus you can’t go past Glicks Bakery for a tasty bagel.

With a handy walk score of 84 there’s plenty to love about the neighbourhood. Centenary’s convenient location on Centre Road means everything is within reach. Education, sporting facilities such as Glen Eira Sports & Aquatic Centre, education and shopping options large and small all surround you. Plus nearby Bentleigh train station will have you in the CBD in just 25 minutes.
