Level 14 position | 2-bed, 2-bath configuration | Heart of Southbank landmark | Current market listing
This unit presents a competitively priced entry into a landmark Southbank development, offering the rare combination of two full bathrooms within a two-bedroom layout, a configuration that consistently attracts both professional renters and owner-occupiers. Its position on a high floor within Melbourne Square ensures light and outlook, while the address itself carries weight in a precinct defined by newer, amenity-rich towers. This property is best suited for an investor seeking a stable, high-quality rental or a buyer prioritising modern finishes and convenience over capital growth in the immediate term.
The primary decision factor is the clear market re-pricing since its 2017 sale; you are acquiring at a valuation approximately 15% below its previous price, which offsets some strata premium risk inherent in large developments. The flood overlay is a technical risk that necessitates specific insurance checks. Its current pricing and rental estimates suggest a gross yield approaching 4%, providing a logical, income-supported hold in a central location. Proceed with a focus on its functional layout as a durable advantage, but accept that its value trajectory will be tied to the broader apartment market rather than standout performance.
