An apartment at Port Melbourne designed by Block contestants Carleen and Dan will be auctioned this weekend.

Located at 3/164 Ingles Street the property features three bedrooms and a study area with the overall renovation overseen by architect Julian Brenchley and topped by David Franklin’s city-view skygarden.

The grand master ensuite features a vast double ensuite with dual vanity and double shower with a decadent dressing room, the apartment also features a secondary bedroom with their own fitted dressing areas and a custom-built study beyond the impressive entry lobby

The kitchen features every Bosch appliances while a butler’s pantry adds a second dishwasher and more sleek storage.

Bathrooms channel the building’s Art Deco spirit with shiny metallic finishes and matt black and white feature tiling.

Every room has its own individual climate control with a wireless Bose sound system, automated blinds and generous double-glazing.

The dining table is hand crafted and takes centre stage with the apartment combining fine leather dining and occasional seating.

However the apartment’s most notable features include the original Art Deco lighting that matches the fine wallpaper, a sparkling multi-facet mirror centred in the lobby and precious object d’art including an angular Christofle tea set and sinuous bronze panther.

The property is secured by video intercom, keypad entry, lift access and auto-gated undercover parking with artisan-restored terrazzo and timber detailing through reception and access areas.
