A piece of Melbourne history, reimagined for modern living. Heritage-listed residence within the iconic Dimmy’s building, Swan Street, Cremorne
There are apartments, and then there are addresses that carry a story. This is one of them. For generations, the building at 140 Swan Street has been woven into the fabric of Melbourne life. Now heritage-listed and lovingly transformed, it offers something increasingly rare in this city: a home with genuine soul. This beautifully appointed one-bedroom residence sits within the original historic wing, where the bones of the past meet a sophisticated interior. The kitchen is sleek and fully equipped — gas cooktop, oven and dishwasher and boasts a large island bench that anchors the open-plan living and dining area. A study nook offers convenience, tucking neatly into the floorplan, while split-system heating and cooling keeps things comfortable year-round. The bedroom offers floor to ceiling mirrored built-in robes and a sense of calm retreat, serviced by a well-finished bathroom with large walk-in shower and a European laundry.
Beyond the apartment itself, the building delivers an amenity offering that would be impressive in any five-star hotel — and almost all of it sits on the same floor as your front door. Resident amenities include:
Gym, sauna and spa, cinema room, library, outdoor terrace, billiards room, private dining room, basement car space, and video intercom entry.
The address has independent validation too, with Time Out Magazine recently naming Swan Street as one of the coolest streets in the world, ranking it among a global shortlist! When you step outside, Richmond’s legendary dining and café scene unfolds in both directions along Swan and Church Streets. Coles on the ground floor means the weekly shop takes minutes. The city and Botanic Gardens are a tram ride or a walk away, and Melbourne’s unrivalled sporting and entertainment precinct is practically on your doorstep. Richmond Station a few minutes walk away connects you further afield, while the vibrant energy of this inner-city neighbourhood — boutiques, wine bars, brunch spots, live music - means you may rarely want to leave. A lifestyle like this is hard to manufacture. Here, it simply comes with the address. The exceptional contents, curated to complement the character of the space, are available to the purchaser by separate negotiation.
