What's around 53/88 Wells St

Quiet, Leafy Living in The Arts Precinct

• Boutique low-rise residential complex • East-facing with leafy street outlook • Full-length balcony off living area • New floorboards in living zone • Central ducted heating and cooling • Secure underground car park on title • Eligible for resident permit parking (via City of Melbourne) • Vacant possession available Set within The Keep, one of Southbank's rare low-rise complexes, this two-bedroom, east-facing apartment offers a genuine sense of calm and privacy, with leafy outlooks across Wells Street toward Victoria Barracks creating a quiet, residential atmosphere rarely found so close to the city. It is the kind of home that feels calm the moment you walk in. The layout is both practical and inviting, with a generous open-plan living and dining area forming the heart of the home. New floorboards enhance the space, which flows directly to a full-length balcony, extending the living zone and providing a peaceful spot to relax while enjoying the leafy outlook. The separation between the living and accommodation zones adds to the overall sense of comfort and privacy. The kitchen is well positioned adjacent to the living area, offering excellent bench space, good storage and a functional layout suited to everyday living. Two well-sized bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, each with built-in robes, and separated by a spacious, renovated central bathroom, making the apartment ideal for owner-occupiers or a quality investment. Central ducted heating and cooling ensures year-round comfort, while a secure underground car space on title adds everyday convenience. Highly regarded for its boutique scale and low-density design, The Keep offers a more residential feel than many surrounding buildings. Positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street, the apartment is within easy walking distance of Southbank Promenade, the Arts Precinct and the Royal Botanic Gardens, with Anzac Station, tram services, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities all close by. This enhanced connectivity provides seamless access to the CBD and surrounds, further strengthening the lifestyle appeal of this tightly held Southbank address.

Impeccable warm service

Michael is somewhat a ‘Southbank icon’ with his dedication, history and knowledge in the low rise apartment complex suburb. We were absolutely thrilled to see his name attached to a property we were interested in. We have really enjoyed every moment with Michael’s care, support and up-skill on an auction process as first timers. Michael’s service is impeccable. We automatically warmed to Michael and connected with his genuine character. Thank you for the brilliant memories buying our apartment.

Its not just about the destination, its the journey

I dont normally bother with ratings, but Michael was great, he lived up to the high rankings others have provided already. Michael is an expert at selling in the Southbank area, as a former resident he knows the best of the area and sells it from the heart. Michael kept me up to date right throughout the journey, which is crucial for a someone who had never been through the property selling journey before. Michael regularly checked in and we caught up to set the strategy early in the engagement, then revisit it based on attendance rates and feedback from prospective buyers. He had my trust throughout the process and I followed his suggested strategy based on detailed insights. In the end I got a price I was happy with, and the buyer likewise. Great outcome. Great agent. Thanks Michael for your service
