Penthouses are the epitome of luxury and few deliver an enviable lifestyle quite like the three-bedroom penthouse at 35 Marine Parade in St Kilda.
Sitting at the crown of a boutique building, the brand-new apartment combines elegant interiors with stunning views of the bay. Designed in consultation with Karl Fender (of internationally awarded architecture firm Fender Katsalidis), this sophisticated home is a rare opportunity for potential buyers to live in refined elegance.
The sense of luxury begins at the entrance to the building. Here, 3-metre high glass ceilings allow sunlight to suffuse the hallway, highlighting the warm-toned flooring and wall materials.
The light-filled living and dining areas are anchored by an entertainer’s kitchen. Here, Wolf appliances, an integrated, dual-sided Liebherr fridge/freezer, Asko dishwasher, and Vintec wine fridge ensure hosting friends and family is an easy affair. The thoughtful addition of a concealed butler’s pantry means the resident can leave dishes out of sight and out of mind, and enjoy more time with dinner party guests.
The sense of a practical yet refined aesthetic can be found throughout the well-appointed three bedrooms. The master bedroom showcases floating cabinetry, a dressing room, walk-in robes, and an ensuite with stunning benchtops and dual shower. The main bathroom, meanwhile, features an oversized shower with a streamlined rain-shower head fitting, and the additional luxe powder room means there’s plenty of space to get ready in the morning.
The spacious floorplan spreads over 206 square metres and connects to an additional 40 square metres of outdoor terrace. The low-maintenance planter gardens frame views out over Port Phillip Bay towards the city skyline, and a top-of-the-range fully plumbed Wolf barbecue provides the perfect excuse to host outside on a warm evening.
The penthouse includes a secure enclosed private car park with parking for up to six cars, plus an underground storeroom. Full video intercom security and convenient lift access ensure the potential homeowner will have even more privacy.
This penthouse makes up just one of the collection of residences found within 35 Marine Parade. Located at the edge of the water, this low-rise development gives potential buyers immediate access to a coastal lifestyle.
With the beach on the doorstep, and an abundance of cafés and restaurants to be enjoyed along Barkly Street, residents of 35 Marine Parade will never be bored. On warm evenings, locals can be found enjoying the sea breeze on Riva’s Marina Deck, while shucking oysters and sipping wine. Or visit one of the bars found along Barkly Street, such as The St Kilda Branch or Big Mouth.
For a low-key afternoon, head over to the St Kilda Botanical Gardens — only a 10-minute walk away. Established in the 1800s, the gardens feature a sub-tropical rain forest conservatory and an array of indigenous and international flowers.
St Kilda is a highly convenient and accessible suburb to the south of Melbourne’s CBD. It’s just a quick 15-minute drive to get to the city, and there’s ample opportunity to catch public transport thanks to frequently running trams.
