About This Home
As of August 2022This gorgeous open-plan and light-filled condo on a quiet tree-lined street in the heart of East Lakeview is sure to impress. The spacious home is set across two levels and also has access to the common rooftop deck that enjoys spectacular views of the city skyline and sunsets. Timber floors flow underfoot and there are freshly painted walls with neutral color tones throughout. The kitchen has ample cabinetry and counter-space and opens to the dining room, while the separate living room enjoys an abundance of soft natural light and a cozy fireplace. There is a primary bedroom as well as a second generously sized bedroom in the lower level with its own bathroom. The ideal location places you within easy reach of great cafes, bars, restaurants and shops.
