606/33-39 Racecourse Road, North Melbourne, Vic 3051

Perched high among a tightly held ’33 North’ complex, this first-rate residence pairs class and comfort with unrivalled convenience, offering the ideal lock-and-leave retreat on the city’s vibrant inner-fringe.

Instantly impressive with its generous dimensions and all-day natural light, a clever floor plan distinguishes accommodation from entertaining, with a large guest room, in-vogue bathroom, and master with a window-side study space perfect complements to main areas. Entwined living and dining zones flank a gourmet kitchen with a Smeg oven, induction stove, dishwasher, marble splashback, and island breakfast bar, while sweeping vistas prove a brilliant backdrop to a broad terrace.

Augmented by split-system heating/cooling, built-in robes, engineered oak floors, a European laundry, and secure car space with a storage cage, it’s mere metres to Newmarket shops and restaurants, Royal Park’s pristine expanses, the Moonee Ponds Creek bike trail, CityLink, Flemington Bridge Station, and trams passing hospitals and universities en route to the CBD.
