In a boutique block, within a five-minute walk of the station and many eateries on Barkly Street, this is an apartment to win the hearts of a young couple.
Fresh, contemporary living spaces combine with a tucked-away street address – home to period residences and other apartment blocks – to deliver a tempting lifestyle in rapidly evolving WeFo.

Beyond secure entry to the block, the apartment is on the first floor which allows it to have a walled terrace for entertaining and relaxing in private. East-facing, it’s the perfect spot to have a morning cuppa with the paper and to set up for a weekend barbecue.
The living domain, immediately behind the front door, has the same grey carpet and crisp white wall paint capturing today’s colour palette all through.
The tiled kitchen, tucked into one corner, has pearl-grey floor tiles, white splashback tiles, cabinetry in a black-and-white combo, mottled charcoal laminate benches and dishwasher, underbench oven and gas cooktop.
Carpeted stairs rise to two fitted bedrooms with soft-grey roller blinds, the same as on all windows. They share an all-white bathroom with a raised vanity basin, modern tapware and a shower-over-bath arrangement.
A split-system supplies effective temperature control, no matter the season, while a gated car space under the building provides secure off-street parking.
New owners will be entering Western Bulldogs turf, with Whitten Oval’s training sessions and AFLW matches a two-minute bike ride away. The WeFo address could not be more convenient for shopping, city commuting and freeway access.
