Perched on the Queenscliff headland, this elegant and spacious apartment has been styled to perfection with contemporary fittings, and offers easy access to two of the most exciting and desirable suburbs on the beaches.

The air-conditioned living area is welcoming and unexpectedly peaceful with high ceilings, light timber floorboards, and an easy-flow layout that incorporates dining and kitchen.

One easy step through large sliding doors leads you to a covered balcony that presents a serene view of the lagoon and the district beyond. A handy wraparound bar on the balcony provides the perfect spot to sit back with a couple of sundowners and watch the sun set over the west at the end of the day.

The kitchen with integrated stainless steel appliances impresses with a large island bench that separates living from kitchen, where you can sit and eat brekkie or have a quick read of the paper before work.

Away from the living area are the bedrooms, where plush carpet, plantation shutters on windows and built-ins, plus that little bit extra space than you’d expect are all on offer.

A compact laundry is concealed behind a set of doors in the hallway, which also leads to the contemporary bathroom with fresh white floor-to-wall tiles and a bath with overhead shower.

The block itself is well-presented, pet-friendly, has security access and a proactive strata committee that is currently overseeing fire updates to the building.

A single lock-up garage on title with mezzanine storage means there’s plenty of space for a surfboard.

The proximity to world-class beaches is unbeatable, being a five-minute walk from either Freshwater or Queenscliff beach.
