If you’re looking for the true ‘Melbourne Experience’, Richmond is the place to be. Located in the inner suburbs of Melbourne, Richmond is centrally located for many of the key attractions that will bring you to our beautiful city. There are convenient public transport options to the inner city, however, the local area also brings a wealth of things to keep you busy. From visiting the bustling stretch of Victoria Street known as ‘Little Saigon’, to wandering the lush expanses of public parklands, there is something for everyone in Richmond. Although the property is situated on a quiet residential street, you are a minute walk from Bridge Road (@bridgerd.richmond on Instagram), the main shopping and entertainment precinct. Here you’ll find an array of modern eateries, fashion and arts and culture events, dispersed between trendy pubs and outlet stores. Regularly featured in the global ‘most livable cities in the world’, Melbourne is a hub for arts, culture and entertainment, with something for everyone. Melbourne is host to a number of sporting and entertainment events throughout the year, which allows you to take advantage of the world class public transport system that we are known for. The sporting complex housing the MCG is less than 15 minutes by public transport from the heart of Richmond, and a direct route to the CBD is even less. Nearby, in the upscale South Yarra, you can take advantage of the galleries, cocktail lounges and Prahran markets, serving up gourmet foodstuff daily. No property is fully empty.
