South Yarra

Undisputedly one of Melbourne’s most vibrant suburbs, South Yarra combines the variety of inner-city living with a neighbourly familiarity. Historic heritage builds sit beautifully next to modern high rises, creating architectural diversity in the South Yarra postcode’s broad living appeal. It’s busy, but not everywhere. And that’s what South Yarra has mastered effortlessly.

Between leafy tree-lined streets and wide passages, the suburb is contoured by Yarra Street, Toorak Road, and Chapel Street. Not just bustling with retail and hospitality institutions, South Yarra also affords you plenty of nature on your doorstep; there’s The Tan track for morning laps, Fawkner Park for outdoor exercise sessions, and the Yarra River trail for meandering. Afterwards, find us for a quick bite at Tivoli Road Bakery or Darling Café

Home to some of the most expensive properties in Melbourne, and with plenty of opportunity for first home buyers, South Yarra caters to real estate ambitions of all sizes. What sees these ambitions turn into primary residences, is obvious.
