There’s a version of apartment living that surprises you – and 806/79 Market Street is exactly that.

Spread across two levels on the top floor of the Walker Apartments, this is a home that lives far bigger than the numbers suggest. Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two balconies and city views that stretch to the MCG. At approximately 86sqm, every square metre has been considered.

The kitchen anchors the living level – a generous island bench, Smeg appliances and enough space to actually cook. Hybrid flooring runs throughout the main living areas, three split systems keep the climate in check year round and contemporary sheers frame the outlook without competing with it. Step out from the lounge to the main balcony and the city sits right in front of you.

Downstairs, the second bedroom has its own private balcony – a quiet retreat separate from the main living space. Both bedrooms are carpeted with built-in robes, and the second bathroom sits conveniently alongside. The euro laundry tucks away neatly, and the whole apartment is designed to be genuinely low maintenance – easy to lock up and leave, easy to come home to.

Storage in the basement. A genuine car space – not a stacker. And a location that puts the South Melbourne Market, tram stops and the city within easy reach.

South Melbourne is at your doorstep. The city is in your sightline.
