1/5 Ashley Street Reservoir, VIC 3073

Presented with a stylish character within a short stroll of the Edwardes Street shopping and dining strip, enrich your lifestyle with style and convenience with this contemporary two-bedroom townhouse.

The intelligent first-floor position of the radiant open-plan living area (with a sleek kitchen equipped with stone benchtops and stainless steel appliances) allows it to capture the sparkling lights of Melbourne's CBD in the distance, while the favourable north-facing orientation of the private entertainer's balcony results in an abundance of northern sunshine filtering into this stylish space.

A modern bathroom comfortably services two robed bedrooms downstairs, while beautiful high ceilings, warm timber floorboards, European laundry, upstairs powder room and a secure single garage with internal access add another layer of positive appeal.

A morning coffee, weekend breakfasts and perhaps a sweet dessert after dinner will form part of your everyday routine given the superb access to local foodie hotspots along the bustling High Street strip or a little closer at Regent Village or along Edwardes Street, and with Edwardes Lake within walking distance, you can keep your calories under control with regular jogs through the scenic park.

Enjoying the advantages of its own street frontage and a smart low-maintenance design, this astute investment, first home or downsizing option also boasts swift access to Reservoir train station, Gilbert Road trams, Preston Market, Northland Shopping Centre and local schools.
