Set on a prized corner block and held in the same family since 1968, this classic Victorian Terrace residence offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special in one of Melbourne's most tightly held suburbs. Lovingly occupied until the mid-90s, the home holds decades of memories and now presents an exciting chance for the next chapter to begin.
Believed to date back to the late 1800s, 23 Merton Street is part of Albert Park's rich architectural heritage. Surrounded by beautifully restored period homes, it retains all the hallmarks of the era – from its elegant brick façade and fire places to its deep block and high ceilings.
The location is truly one of its strongest assets. Just a short approximately 80-metre walk to Albert Park Village, with its cafés, shops and day-to-day amenities, this home sits right in the heart of local life. Public transport is effortless, with the Route 1 Tram only approximately110 metres away and the Route 96 Light Rail also close by. The beach isn't too far either - an easy approximately 900-metre stroll for morning walks or summer swims.
Also within walking distance are some of Melbourne's most iconic lifestyle destinations, including:
- St Vincent Gardens
- Albert Park Village
- Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC)
- Albert Park Lake
- South Melbourne Market
- Albert Park Beach
- Gasworks Farmers Market
- Within the Albert Park College Zone
Dual street frontage on a prominent corner position, offering excellent accessibility and easy potential to create off-street parking (STCA).
This is a genuine renovator's opportunity. With its corner position and surrounded by quality homes, it promises to be a standout once fully renovated, offering plenty of space to design a home to enjoy and build lasting memories.
