2/162 Barkers Road, Hawthorn, Vic 3122

They raised the rent, "forgot" to fix the heater, and now they're posting from a catamaran in the Aegean about how "passive income hits different".

Time to upgrade.

This apartment offers actual windows, generous storage, and a layout that finally lets you feel at home, not in exile. 

It's your main-character arc, in bricks and mortar.

There's a spacious living room, a genuinely big bedroom, and a kitchen where you can chop onions without elbowing the fridge.

Built in the 1960s, the block is solid and small-scale not a high-rise or quick flip. 

It's got the bones, it's got the charm, and yes, there's a car space that's actually yours. No more "first come, first scream."

Full disclosure: laundry's shared. But it's right next door, not some weird basement journey.

Location? Glenferrie Road in five minutes, train in ten. Plus all the neighbourhood favourites on standby.

Rococo, Lido, and everywhere else that's seen a soft launch or two.

Inspect now before your landlord gets back from Europe and decides the oven isn't essential.
