21 Como Avenue South Yarra - James Buyer Advocates

21 Como Avenue, South Yarra — James Home Rating

There’s a lot to like about this one. It feels like a country estate quietly sitting within walking distance of the CBD — rare air for South Yarra. Inside, it’s beautifully composed. The kitchen and living zones are wonderfully atmospheric, with a warmth that carries through the entire home. Presentation is near perfect — furniture, colour palette, and layout all working in harmony to create calm and character. It’s a reminder that good design doesn’t need to shout; it needs to feel right.

The parents’ retreat upstairs adds balance — a place of genuine privacy — while the garden connection from the main living space gives it a sense of calm luxury. The only negatives are external: a little road noise and limited garaging, but that’s common trade-off territory in this pocket. Everything else — flow, zoning, feel — sits right in that sweet spot for families with primary or early secondary-aged children.

Homes like this don’t need reinvention; they need appreciation. It’s as close as you get to “ready to live” in South Yarra, both emotionally and physically. If you’re considering what separates “nice” from “special,” that’s what we uncover every week — the homes that feel right today and still hold value tomorrow.
