Ash’s home is really lovely. I stayed for almost 6 months and it was a wonderful haven during my working contract in Melbourne.
Where to start? The full kitchen was an absolute plus for me during such a long stay because I love to cook. Everything’s there and that made it all so easy. Really functional. Great also having a separate dining space.
And, talking about space, the apartment is not only physically spacious, but also has really lovely views across the neighbourhood. It’s so near the CBD but there’s a wonderful community feel to the area.
Beds are very comfortable, and all linens, pillows, etc are perfect for Melbourne.
Balaclava - nearest shops - has all stores you need within a 5 minute walk. Ash’s apartment is also really close to public transport so getting around Melbourne is a breeze.
Two things I really loved: Ash has a beautifully eclectic selection of books and other objects, as well as some really interesting decorative touches. And secondly? Had the fortune to meet Ash just before I left. Lovely person and, afterwards, could understand totally why his home has such a nice feeling.
Highly recommended. Lovely apartment in a wonderful neighbourhood.
