Melbourne’s Seaside Jewel

It’s a location where we specialise in securing properties for a diverse range of clients, from first home buyers seeking apartments to single-fronted homes for executive couples, and spacious family homes. St Kilda is also highly favoured by investors for its lucrative opportunities.

Nautical Inspiration

St Kilda owes its name to Superintendent La Trobe, who was inspired by a boat named ‘Lady of St Kilda’ anchored off the beach in 1841. In the early 1900’s, the suburb became a favoured retreat for Melbourne’s elite, witnessing the construction of palatial mansions along its waterfront. The sale of government survey allotments in the 1840’s marked the beginning of St Kilda’s transformation into an address of choice.

From Heritage to Gentrification

A rich cultural history is evident in its religious and educational institutions, with churches and schools being established from 1849. Over the years, St Kilda has undergone significant changes, experiencing rapid gentrification since the 2000’s. This transformation has seen the suburb regain popularity leading to a shift in demographics. This vibrant and dynamic community is home to professional couples, families with children, students, and retirees alike.


Pillars of Learning

St Kilda is home to several esteemed schools, including St Michael’s Grammar School, St Mary’s College, St Kilda Primary School, and St Kilda Park Primary School. These institutions not only contribute to the educational landscape but also feature imposing heritage buildings, adding to the suburb’s architectural charm.

Historic Wonders

There are many local landmarks, including the iconic Luna Park, a historic amusement park that opened in 1912, known for its famous mouth entrance and historic scenic railway, the Astor Theatre and Palais Theatre, built in 1935 and 1927 respectively are both listed on the Victorian Heritage Register, The Esplanade Hotel, affectionately known as “The Espy”, is believed to be the longest continuously running live music venue in Australia. Enjoy the sea breeze and scenery from the St Kilda Pier, currently undergoing redevelopment with completion due for 2024, it’s home to the famed kiosk and much loved penguin colony.

    “Being interstate and the boarders closed we were nervous in purchasing our next investment without flying down to see it.

    However, it became evident from the start that you were not going to allow us to make a final decision until we were well educated not only on the property and the area, but the impact covid was having on the market and what kind of tenant we would achieve etc.

    The countless photos, videos, facetime walkthrough and answering all of our questions have not gone unnoticed.

    Thanks so very much, Lynda!”

    “Engaging with Lynda was one of the best decisions we have ever made and we wouldn’t hesitate in recommending her to others.

    After many months of searching for our first home, we felt disheartened by the market, but Lynda renewed our hope and confidence while also providing peace of mind that we had someone in our corner with immense expertise and industry knowledge.  Lynda is at all times professional, warm and respectful, and she genuinely cares about the best interests of her clients.

    Our expectations were exceeded when Lynda secured our first home at a brilliant price and in a wonderful location. She then guided us through the subsequent renovation process. Leveraging her industry contacts, she coordinated all quotes and trades to work within our budget while never compromising on quality.

    Lynda is proactive and had solutions ready for challenges before we even knew they existed! Her dedication and attention to detail are second to none; we had complete trust in Lynda from the beginning.

    We’re thrilled with the result, and wouldn’t be living where we are today if it wasn’t for Lynda.  Thanks, Lynda!”

    “Having tried to navigate the real estate process alone for quite some time, after starting working with Lynda success came quickly! She made the whole experience easy, with her calm, assured knowledge and guidance. Her communication throughout was excellent, which meant I was able to feel completely informed and part of the process, with the bonus of not having to worry about all the things that take time and effort making sure a property is going to be right.

    Lynda took the time to understand the kind of property I was after, even though these were few and far between. Most significantly, her ability to navigate the challenges of COVID impacting the property market, and knowing that I was being protected through negotiations was invaluable. Lynda made what had until then been quite an unpleasant process, easy, relaxed, and even fun sometimes!

    Thanks, Lynda!!”

    “When we feel in love with the “idea” of living on land we really had no idea where to buy or what would best suit our family – Your clear plan and questions certainly narrowed it down and made us look at what was most important, your knowledge and due diligence on the rural property was amazing- we learnt a lot!!

    Thank you also for going the extra mile looking into the schools, clubs, and community.

    We are living the dream!” (if only we could post you some eggs from the chickens)

    “After looking for 6 months and having to have my pre-approval updated once again I had almost given up on the idea of finding my next property.

    Then whilst having coffee with a friend (and complaining) she flicked me your card!

    The rest is like magic! – Within two weeks you had found not only the ideal property however it was pre-market giving me first option to secure without all the competition.

    Thank you so very much. We are very happy!”
