4/83 Hoddle Street, Richmond.

Tucked quietly at the rear of a secure boutique block of just nine, this elegant one-bedroom apartment pairs beautifully preserved 1930s character with a peaceful, well-connected Richmond address. Ideal as an investment, first home or pied-a-terre, it offers an enviable inner-city lifestyle with a welcome sense of privacy. Original features shine throughout, from the lofty ornate ceilings and textured plasterwork to the grand wood-panelled foyer and solid double-brick construction. Freshly painted and updated with floorboards throughout, the home offers a handsome, spacious living room with a decorative fireplace and a unique touch for plant lovers: a UV grow panel and hanging wires ready for a thriving indoor garden. The generous bedroom has an adjoining bathroom, while the separate kitchen features gas cooking, timber cabinetry and laundry connections. Quality double glazing keeps the outside world at bay, so you can enjoy genuine quiet in the heart of the city fringe. A bus stop sits just out front, with Bridge Road and Victoria Street trams, and West Richmond Station all within easy reach - the station just two stops from the CBD. Richmond's restaurants, cafes, bars, shopping, sporting and cultural attractions are close at hand, while East Melbourne's parks and gardens provide a pleasant walking connection into the CBD and towards Fitzroy. Council parking permits are also available. A charming and easy-care sanctuary for professionals, first home buyers, investors or those seeking a stylish pied-a-terre, combining enduring Art Deco character with exceptional inner-city convenience.
