What an amazing place! The dining room table sits 16 and the table is not at all cramped in the living/dining room space. The photos cannot do it justice. The patio wraps around the whole place giving views of the city and is handsomely furnished. There is a laundry room with a washer and a clothes line too. But the most amazing thing is the decor and setting. It is beautiful, spacious, and very comfortable. The penthouse is located in the Brunswick neighborhood of Melbourne that is filled with first generation people from all over the world. The baklahva on nearby Sydney street is the best we have ever eaten, the fresh bread from the Oven street bakery nearby is simply so good that people stand in line til it opens, and the fresh produce store next door (along with its fish market, poultry and butcher shops) has everything you'd want to cook a great meal on the very well furnished gas stove in the apartment. The train to Central Melbourne is a 5 minute simple walk away and the tram is even closer. This is a home that someone shares so it is maintained like a home that someone truly cares about.
