1801/119 Abeckett Street, Melbourne VIC 3000

Premium CBD position | High-rise with full hotel-style amenities | Brand-new furnished condition | Price gap above comparable floorplan suggests premium for view or finish. The $820k–$840k ask sits approximately $45k–$65k above the $775k estimate for a lower-floor L18 variant of the same 71m² layout. That premium buys the higher-level outlook and brand-new furnishing package, but introduces a risk that a similarly sized unit two floors down trades for less. The amenity stack—pool, sauna, gym, cinema, concierge—supports a $970 weekly rental and adds genuine lifestyle leverage for an owner-occupier. This is a hold for income or use, not a short-term flip. What makes this property competitively rare is the combination of high-floor position in a newly completed tower with full resort amenities, fully furnished, in the CBD core close to RMIT and Queen Victoria Market. For a professional couple or investor seeking a lock-and-leave with strong tenant appeal, the ready-to-lease condition and strata that includes heating, spa, and security remove nearly all management friction. The next step is to inspect the lower-floor comp at L18 to validate whether the premium translates to a better view or simply higher margin for the seller.
