Summary: North-Facing, Low-Rise, Well-Located
Description: Freshly painted and updated with new wood floors, a new electric cooktop and a new range hood, this modern apartment is ready to enjoy from day one. Set in a low-rise block with a north-facing orientation, the interior is filled with natural light throughout the day. The entry leads into an open-plan living and meals area, with the kitchen tucked to one side and well-appointed for everyday ease. A sliding door opens to a balcony overlooking the central courtyard, quietly removed from the street. The bedroom includes built-in robes, with a separate bathroom alongside. A large storage cage adds valuable extra space, ideal for bikes, seasonal items or anything you'd rather keep out of sight. Importantly, this apartment is not restricted to student only use - it is open to owner occupiers and investors alike, offering flexibility for anyone seeking a well-connected, low-maintenance lifestyle. Cafés are on your doorstep, the station is a 1 minute walk, and trams run along two roads. Swinburne University of Technology is close enough that an early lecture isn't a reason to set an early alarm. Auburn Road adds another layer of local character. Glenferrie Central, with Woolworths, takes care of the practical side, and Central Gardens is close when you need space to think. Whether you're studying, investing or simply looking for a lifestyle that doesn't require a car, this is a strong place to land. Proudly presented by Woodards Camberwell. We donate a portion of our fee from every property transaction to the Woodards Foundation to support people experiencing homelessness, family violence, and social isolation.

Summary: Elevated Living With Leafy Outlooks
Description: Set quietly on the top floor of a boutique block, this light-filled apartment combines an excellent layout with leafy outlooks in a walk-to-everything location. A central hallway gives the interior structure and separation, leading through to a living room that opens directly to a north-facing balcony, where treed views soften the outlook and add a sense of tranquillity. To one side, the kitchen is fitted with an upright stove and ample storage, making it easy to cook, unpack and get on with your routine. The two bedrooms sit either side of the bathroom, both with built-in robes and a sense of privacy that works just as well for sharers as it does for owner-occupiers. The bathroom includes a bath, separate shower and integrated laundry facilities, keeping everything neatly in one place. Further highlights include a split-system air conditioner in the main bedroom, a gas wall heater warming the living room, and a dedicated car space. Auburn Village is an easy stroll for morning coffee, weekend pastries and everyday essentials. Glenferrie Road adds restaurants, bars and retail, while Camberwell Junction broadens the offering with major shopping. Swinburne University sits close by, making the address especially appealing for students and investors. Trams, Auburn Station and bus routes keep the city and surrounding suburbs within easy reach, and when you need outdoor space, Fritsch Holzer Park is just around the corner for a walk, a pause, or a reset between busy days.

Description: THE DEAL A statement in architectural mastery, crafted by award-winning WAF Constructions and Splinter Society Architects. This is not just a brand new apartment. It's a bold reimagining of what contemporary living should be - where light, space, and design intersect to create something truly special. A full-floor residence with direct lift access. Offering approximately 140 square metres of sheer brilliance, framed by high ceilings. The interiors are a carefully curated balance of natural stone, timber, and glass. The glass block façade doesn't just let light in - it plays with it, shifting the mood from morning to night. An ever-changing, ephemeral glow that makes the space feel alive. The open-plan living and dining zones flow effortlessly, punctuated by a second lounge - your choice of a media retreat, executive home office, or third bedroom. The kitchen is a chef's dream. Full suite of Miele appliances. Push-and-touch cabinetry. A 60mm solid island bench that invites conversation as much as it does culinary excellence. Two bedrooms, each an oasis in its own right. The master retreat is indulgent - custom robes, a decadent stone-clad ensuite, and a serenity that's impossible to fake. The second bedroom shares a bathroom that matches the same high-end aesthetic. Then, step outside. A full-width terrace, drenched in northern light. The kind of space that turns an afternoon coffee into an evening cocktail without you ever wanting to move. A location that puts Auburn Village at your doorstep - cafés, restaurants, boutiques, and an effortless city commute. SEALS THE DEAL By day, Newburgh Light House is a masterclass in modern elegance. By night, it's a glowing landmark, illuminating Auburn Village with an undeniable presence. Photos by Timothy Kaye.
