704 / 140 Swan Street
Richmond

Merging the very best of city-fringe living with a resort-like level of communal amenity, from the seventh floor of the tightly held ‘Richmond Icon’ building, this oversized, single bedroom apartment is a remarkably quiet and fully double-glazed sanctuary to exceed expectations. Superbly appointed with facilities that include a gymnasium, sauna, spa and an alfresco BBQ area that looks up to the landmark Dimmeys Tower, the home also enjoys access to a cinema, billiards room, function and entertaining rooms, all in a dream location on the cusp of Melbourne’s famous sporting, musical and events precinct.

Backed by a gourmet, stone-topped kitchen with Miele appliances, the open-plan dining / living flows effortlessly to a sunroom that faces north and introduces brilliant northern light. Fully secure with video entry, non-stacker basement parking, storage and a fob-activated elevator, the home also features built-in robes in the bedroom, a stylish bathroom, concealed laundry and reverse cycle heating / air conditioning. This is a super central and highly convenient location with a Coles supermarket in the building and an abundance of cafes, restaurants and bars all along Swan Street, plus you have city-bound trams, trains from Richmond Railway Station and easy access to the endless trails and parkland of the Yarra River.
