29 Darling Street, South Yarra – James Buyer Advocates

 

James Home Rating: 780 | Grade A+ | October 2026

 

Wet, old, miserable day, but this is anything but a miserable house. Right in the heart of South Yarra, 649 square metres and around the $10 million mark.

 

Quirky with a capital Q! Period architecture meets an almost fantasy-world interior. Very edgy, very unusual, but I really like it.

 

Big rooms, high ceilings, excellent bones and plenty of accommodation. The kitchen is almost commercial-industrial in style, opening towards a north-facing pool and private outdoor entertaining area. It almost feels like some grand European property.

 

There is a separate bungalow with its own bathroom, ideal for a teenager, guests, an artist’s studio or perhaps a troublesome husband!

 

Upstairs, more generous bedrooms, unusual finishes and plenty of opportunities to personalise (STCA). Downstairs, a basement with additional spaces and substantial parking.

 

No lift, and certainly not everyone’s taste, but many really good properties aren’t.

 

Five or more bedrooms, multiple living areas, a pool and a fantastic South Yarra location.

 

One of the most unusual properties I’ve seen this month. But it feels good, and for me, it works.
