Part of the allure of the new Brighton apartment project, Martin, a collection of just 11 house-sized residences, is that it brings all the best of Brighton and can be enjoyed in peace and quiet.

Martin, aptly named after its location within the character filled Martin Street Village.

Projects by Buxton Director Heath Thompson says the location will attract those who desire all the benefits of Baysides most desirable suburb without the hustle and bustle.

"It's Brighton’s most intimate village” Thompson comments.

"Those who like the likes of Ormond Road in Elwood tend to like Martin Street. It's lined with a number of fashion boutiques, cafes, and restaurants, while being just over one kilometre to the Bay Trail and Elwood Beach."

Martin residents will also benefit from how well connected its location is to transport infrastructure. 

"Martin sits in a really well serviced part of Brighton, closer to the train station which will connect future residents to the city in around 20 minutes. There's also the Nepean Highway the other side of the station," Thompson adds.

The Gardenvale station is well raised and protected from the street, which ensures any surrounding development doesn't suffer from any train noise.

Martin, by the creative luxury developer EBG, offers future residents a wealth amenity immediately on the doorstep.

Just across the street. St. Martin’s is all about seasonal produce, serving up an innovative menu of tasty treats inclined towards local organic and free-range ingredients, with a weekly changing menu for dining in or take away.

An authentic Italian pizzeria with a truly family-friendly environment, Cucina&co, is just around the corner from Martin, utilising predominantly multigrain wholemeal flour naturally fermented for 96 hours for the lightest, tastiest pizza bases. They also know a thing or two about crafting the perfect bowl of delicious house-made pasta.

10 Greek Plates down the road boasts some of the best Greek food in Melbourne.

An outdoor lifestyle is a healthy lifestyle, and nothing encourages this outlook more than a community that’s fresh and active. Surrounding parks, established tree-lined streets, and a location just minutes from the beach mean healthier decisions become second nature at Martin. 

Nearby Cafes and Restaurants:

St Martins Cafe, Omar And The Marvellous Coffee Bird, Sons of Mary Cafe, Superrandom, Little Ox, 10 Greek Plates, Aromi Restaurant, Cucina & Co, Mastic, Pantry, Elwood Bathers and the classic Middle Brighton Hotel.

Nearby Retail:

Think Blooms, Husk, Trenery, Country Road, Seed, Lululemon, Mecca, Scanlan Theodore, Hoss, Elwood Ormond Road Shopping Precinct.
