As one of Melbourne’s first suburbs, South Melbourne is home to heritage architecture and leafy streets. Yet, it keeps up with modern inner-city living, with the suburb also known for its trendy cafe culture, gourmet eats, and the beloved South Melbourne Market.

Buyers seeking to make this postcode theirs are offered a grand opportunity with Emerald Place.

Located at the corner of Clarendon and York Streets, Emerald Place commands the heart of South Melbourne, offering a selection of impressive two- and three-bedroom residences, as well as three- and four-bedroom Skyhomes.

This multi-award-winning development, developed by luxury property developer Lowe Living, has quickly become the most sought-after address in the area with 60% of residences sold. It’s no wonder, with the project offering utmost safety, tranquil privacy, city views, and house-sized floorplans.

Boutique building with large homes

With construction underway, Emerald Place is expected to reach completion in 2026. Its boutique collection of only 38 residences guarantees exclusivity and a tailored living experience, distinguishing itself from the more impersonal, larger developments commonly found.

“No detail has been spared in Emerald Place, and it truly embodies our commitment to excellence and innovation,” said Tim Lowe, co-founder and managing director of Lowe Living.

“We were astutely focused on the luxury owner-occupier, so we wanted to ensure the design responded to both the expectations of this buyer as well as offering the desired lifestyle, with local amenities on the doorstep.

“Arriving home to Emerald Place is an opportunity to escape the urban atmosphere of South Melbourne and step inside a verdant, tranquil and luxurious haven.”

Secure, luxurious residences

Emerald Place offers three tiers: the spacious Residences, the upgraded Signature Collection, and the exclusive Skyhomes. Each caters to varying degrees of luxury and comfort, featuring house-sized living spaces, dual-aspect views, secure inclusions, and two private car park spaces each.

“We worked closely with architect Woods Bagot to ensure the floorplans offered a variety of considered layouts to suit the unique needs of our clients, with expansive and thoughtfully landscaped private outdoor spaces by Acre,” said Tim.

Features of note within the Emerald Place residences include high ceilings, engineered timber flooring, natural stone benchtops, and state-of-the-art Gaggenau appliances.

Downstairs will be four retail and 12 versatile commercial tenancies with first-class end-of-trip facilities and select city views – affirming utmost convenience to residents and a hub for the community.

Plus, with no oversupply of amenities, buyers are ensured lower Owners Corporation fees.

Location, location, location

Emerald Place’s location is a true gem, located a two-minute walk from the South Melbourne Market and only one kilometre from the Melbourne CBD.

With a walking score of 99, residents will find themselves in the heart of a thriving community, with:

• Port Melbourne Beach just a short tram ride away
• Albert Park moments away
• A wealth of retail and dining options on the doorstep, such as ST. ALi Coffee Roasters and Hector’s Deli
• The Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre (MSAC) nearby

As construction progresses by Hamilton Marino, the vision for Emerald Place is soon to be a reality. With 60% of residences already sold, buyers have been loving this collection.

Two- and three-bedroom residences are selling, with two-bedders priced from $2.1 million.
