14 Martin Street Brighton - James Home Ratings

14 Martin Street, Brighton

James Home Rating: —760
Inspected: 27/8/25

 

Position

This is Golden Mile Brighton — just up from the water, in one of Melbourne’s most tightly held lifestyle precincts. Location is the primary driver here: flat land, blue-chip address, and long-term value.

 

Property

On 760sqm, the existing home is livable and comfortable in the short term, but realistically it’s a bulldozer proposition.

  • Accommodation: Works as-is, with enough function for a couple of years if required.
  • Renovation potential: Possible, but the block’s limitations mean you’ll never gain a meaningful backyard.
  • Block: Flat, regular, highly usable for a rebuild. A significant tree in the front yard adds character but may be a consideration in new plans.
  • General feel: Serviceable now, but clearly a land play.

 

Buyer Fit

  • Rebuilders/developers looking to secure prime Golden Mile land.
  • Families wanting to start fresh with a custom design.
  • Investors who understand the long-term land value in this position.

 

Market & Value

  • Quote: $5.0M – $5.5M
  • Context: This pricing reflects the land-only value in the Golden Mile. For 760sqm flat land here, the ask is reasonable.
  • Summary: A clear land play in the Golden Mile. The existing home is usable in the short term, but the opportunity is to start again on a flat, premium block in Brighton’s most prestigious strip.

There are many opinions of value—but three that really matter: yours, the seller’s, and the market’s. And while only one price will ultimately seal the deal, each number carries a different lens—logic, emotion, positioning. To improve your odds of buying well—not overpaying, not missing out—it helps to understand where the market sits. That’s why we provide a market range, not a single figure. This range reflects agent input, your feedback, peer views, and emotional or practical drivers like living near family or renovation upside. Within it, we define a Control Price—usually the midpoint—your value line for judging overs or unders.
