About this property

A residence of history, design integrity, and inner-urban sophistication. Set within one of Richmond's most character-rich pockets, 29 York Street is a residence that seamlessly weaves industrial heritage with contemporary luxury. This is not simply a home - it is a story told through architecture, craftsmanship, and thoughtful design. A site steeped in Melbourne history. Long before its transformation into an exclusive residential address, the site played a vibrant role in Melbourne's industrial evolution. Originally home to a lemonade and soft drink manufacturing and bottling facility for Marchants, the property reflects a bygone era of local production and enterprise. Marchants remained a beloved Australian brand until its acquisition by Coca-Cola Amatil in the 1960s, with operations gradually phased out by the 1980s. In its later life, the building served as a plumbing warehouse before undergoing a considered redevelopment commencing in 1998, giving rise to the boutique body corporate enclave seen today - where industrial bones meet refined urban living. Elevated design and bespoke interiors. Spanning three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and secure parking for two vehicles, the home is defined by its layered textures and curated finishes. At its heart, the kitchen and dining domain is a masterclass in craftsmanship. Custom cabinetry, designed and installed between 2014-2015, features premium Blum soft-close drawers and integrated servo-drive overhead doors, delivering both precision and ease. A cleverly engineered five-tier pantry reveals itself effortlessly, combining innovation with everyday functionality. The selection of Dolomite marble - distinguished by its foundation white base with subtle red and pale orange veining - brings both visual warmth and durability. Renowned for its superior hardness and resistance to heat and acids, it elevates the space beyond aesthetics into lasting performance. A carefully considered artistic detail - a facsimile of There Is Always Hope - anchors the kitchen space, a nod to Melbourne's celebrated street art culture and the creative energy of its inner-city surrounds. Living spaces that connect indoors and out. The lounge extends seamlessly to a front balcony, where Northern Rivers Timbers modular decking - crafted from 100% sustainably sourced Australian hardwood - adds a tactile, natural element underfoot. Thoughtful additions, including waterproofed tiling and a discreetly integrated safety ladder, speak to both practicality and design intent. To the rear, a second balcony offers a tranquil counterpoint, framed by lush foliage and delivering a sense of retreat rarely found in such a central locale. This is your chance to secure a rare Richmond offering. Balancing heritage significance with modern refinement, 29 York Street presents a unique opportunity to secure a home that honours its past while embracing contemporary living. With dual outdoor spaces, secure parking, and bespoke interiors throughout, it stands as a compelling example of inner-urban transformation done right.
