6/60-66 Patterson Road, Bentleigh

This modern apartment in a low-rise boutique block offers a private north-facing courtyard, a generous layout, and a location where the car can stay parked most days of the week.

The living and dining room is open-plan, with a glass slider peeling back to a courtyard wrapped in walls and drenched in all-day sunshine. It's an alfresco setting that expands the interior through summer and remains usable across the cooler months too. The kitchen sits neatly to one side with stone benchtops, induction cooktop, oven and dishwasher, all arranged to keep whoever is doing the cooking in the loop.

Both bedrooms are fitted with built-in robes. The main bedroom has a ceiling fan and a second slider opening directly outside, a clever piece of planning. The bathroom is a standout, finished with full-height stone-look tiling, a feature pebble inlay running behind dual shower heads, and a wall-mounted vanity with sharp matte-black tapware. Also included are a split-system air conditioner, secure video intercom entry, an allocated car space and a storage cage.

Patterson Village's cafés, bakeries and providores, Patterson Station, Victory Park and buses are moments away, while Centre Road’s shopping strip and Dendy Park are a little further afield on foot. Southland and the bay beaches are all within easy reach and zoning falls to Bentleigh West Primary and Brighton Secondary College.

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.
