Expressions of Interest - Closing Tuesday, 27th October at 6pm (unless sold prior) Step behind the heritage shopfront at Two Eleven Sydney Road and you'll find one of Brunswick's most striking contemporary buildings, designed by Six Degrees Architects and delivered by Excelon Projects. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence spreads across two distinctive levels. Raw concrete ceilings stretch overhead, black track lighting draws graphic lines across them, and warm engineered timber floors run underfoot. Every room has a layered, tactile quality. The front door opens onto a long hallway ready for books and collectables, leading you past two bedrooms to the main living space. Glass doors slide back to the balcony and pull daylight deep inside, while the underside of the staircase cuts a bold sculptural angle along one wall, creating a natural gallery for art and records. The kitchen sits alongside, finished in pale joinery with matte black overhead cabinetry, a crisp splashback with a flash of cobalt blue, a gas cooktop, a dishwasher, a pantry and soft strip lighting beneath the cabinets. A pegboard panel gives you somewhere to hang greenery and utensils. Outside, perforated metal screens wrap the balcony and filter the sun into a gentle, dappled glow, giving you privacy without closing anything in. There's room for a crowd of potted plants and relaxed entertaining looking out over the rooftops. The main bedroom has the upper level to itself, with two built-in robes and a generous ensuite. Downstairs, two more bedrooms with their own robes flank a central bathroom. Both bathrooms are finished with vertical white tiling, blue accents, brushed brass tapware, rainfall showers and timber vanities topped in stone. A European laundry and extra storage sit off the hallway. Double glazing, crossflow ventilation, ceiling fans and a heater keep things comfortable whatever the season. The building was shaped around community and sustainability. With a 7.5-star NatHERS rating, solar power and water harvesting, it's built to go easy on the planet and on your bills. Open-air walkways connect the 21 residences, and up on the roof there's a shared garden with 360-degree views, a north-facing vegetable patch, barbecue facilities and a big communal table where a quick hello can easily turn into dinner. Then there's Brunswick itself. Sydney Road is right at your door with its trams, cafés, bars, bakeries, grocers, live music venues and late-night eats. Brunswick Station and Brunswick Baths are a short walk away, Barkly Square is close by for everyday shopping, and the Upfield Bike Path, Princes Park and the city are all within easy reach. You can head out for a coffee and come home three hours later with a new favourite bar and a bag of fresh bread. - Three bedrooms and two bathrooms across two architect-designed levels - Six Degrees design behind a retained Sydney Road heritage facade - Exposed concrete ceilings, black track lighting and timber floors - Main bedroom on its own level with a full ensuite and two robes - Kitchen with sleek joinery, gas cooktop, dishwasher and pantry - Screened balcony off the living area with room for a dining table - European laundry, a handy hallway cupboard and plenty of storage - Double glazing, crossflow ventilation, ceiling fans and heating - 7.5-star NatHERS rating with solar power and water harvesting - Rooftop garden with 360-degree views, veggie patch and BBQ area
