2/12 Shelley Street

Spanish Deco treasure by the bay

This spacious ground-floor apartment sits within a striking example of Spanish Deco architecture, defined by its arched entry, curved white façade, and quiet elegance that leave a lasting impression on one of Elwood’s most coveted tree-lined streets.

Beautifully and pristinely maintained, the interior blends generous proportions with original character and smart, understated updates. A wide central hallway connects each room, beginning with a large living room behind double doors. Decorative ceilings, timber floors, and soft natural light create a calm, inviting feel. There’s split-system air conditioning, but the solid construction keeps temperatures naturally stable.

The kitchen has been modernised without losing character, featuring gas cooking, a dishwasher, and space to dine. The two bedrooms include built-in robes and peaceful garden outlooks and are served by a bright bathroom with a shower over the bath. A full separate laundry adds rare convenience for an apartment of this era, with direct access to the rear. At the front, a classic verandah offers a quiet, elevated space to sit and enjoy the street’s canopy of trees.

Elwood Beach is just a few minutes’ walk away, with the wide lawns of Elwood Park stretching along the foreshore. Elwood Village is close by, home to independent cafés, specialty grocers, and a strong local following. Trams run along Brighton Road, and Ripponlea Station is within easy reach, offering a short commute to the CBD.

A timeless home with true Deco integrity, impeccably presented and superbly located in one of bayside Melbourne’s most liveable and desirable neighbourhoods.
