Ten Cecil: At the centre of Melbourne's trendy Prahran
Respected developer Bensons Property Group wanted to bring something different to the eclectic suburb of Prahran with their newest apartment development, TEN CECIL.
TEN CECIL is a limited edition of 11 two and three-bedroom boutique apartments starting from just under $2 million.
Designed by the acclaimed Fender Katsalidis, TEN CECIL's façade pays homage to the unique cosmopolitan charm of Prahran, an inner suburb five kilometres southeast of Melbourne CBD.
The exterior design features striking black and gold linear accents against concrete and glass, creating a contemporary masterpiece with an elegant and opulent ambience.
Upon entering TEN CECIL's discreet entrance from the quiet 10-16 Cecil Place street front, a private lobby adorned with marble and ceramic feature walls will welcome the residents home.
The luxury apartments, designed by SORA Interior Design, will be finished and furnished with European oak flooring, stone benchtops, Miele appliances, a gas fireplace by ESCEA, and state-of-the-art video and audio security, while large floor-to-ceiling window walls will frame views of the Prahran, South Yarra and CBD skyline.
On TEN CECIL's common areas, residents can enjoy a carefully curated art collection featuring 22 pieces of artwork by prominent Australasian artists such as David Bromley, Freddie Timms, Mark Schaller, and Jasper Knight.
Outside of TEN CECIL, residents will have easy access to many Southeast Asian restaurants, cafes, food markets, stylish bars and late-night clubs thanks to the property's central location.
Chapel Street is less than 100 metres from TEN CECIL, where many retail and culinary options line the street. Some of the highly-rated bars and restaurants around the area include Yoku Ono Ramen, Death or Glory bar, Kin Vietnamese, Namak Indian Restaurant, and The Silverlake Social.
For grocery shopping, residents are spoiled for choice, with major retail chains like Coles, Woolworths, ALDI, and the Prahran Food Market with diverse cafes, all conveniently close to each other.
Families with young children will appreciate the excellent schools surrounding TEN CECIL, including Windsor Primary School and Prahran High School, within a one-kilometre radius of the property.
Commuters are close to public transport, with Tram routes 6 and 78 providing easy access to Melbourne CBD and other key destinations.
When it's time to unwind, Princes Gardens, Prahran Skatepark, and the Malvern Road Playground offer residents nearby escapes from the urban hustle and bustle, all within walking distance.
Ten Cecil is slated for completion in late 2024.
