101/49 Montclair Avenue, Brighton

An address defined by the prestige of Bayside living and infused with Parisian charm, Mode de Vie represents a masterful collaboration between developer Kervale, architect Martino Leah, and acclaimed interior designer Brahman Perera. In a boutique collection of just ten residences, this first-floor apartment captures a rare sense of privacy and refinement. Framed by leafy vistas and positioned on the edge of Martin Street Village, it offers a lifestyle of serenity while being mere steps from vibrant cafés, dining, and the shoreline. Inside, engineered oak floors sweep beneath lofty ceilings, guiding you through open living and dining zones that flow seamlessly to a broad north-facing terrace. Natural light bathes the interiors from morning to dusk, while the gourmet kitchen elevates the space with granite benchtops, an oak dining extension, integrated Miele appliances, and a Fisher & Paykel fridge/freezer. The atmosphere is at once inviting and sophisticated, perfectly attuned to both quiet daily life and stylish entertaining. Two generously scaled bedrooms with bespoke joinery provide comfort and retreat, complemented by two luxurious bathrooms, a dedicated study nook, and the convenience of a European laundry. Secure basement parking with lift access, a storage cage, video intercom, and climate control ensures modern ease, while the boutique scale heightens exclusivity. With the bay, Bay Street dining, city-bound transport, and elite schools all moments away, this residence distils the essence of chic Bayside living into a single, highly coveted address.
