Avoca places the resident conveniently close to the city’s internationally renowned sporting and cultural precincts. Even closer to home is an enviable collection of prestigious restaurants, schools, shopping precincts and parklands. And with abundant transport options, life here is very well connected.
DOMAIN HILL
Avoca Street is one of only a handful of streets in the prestigious enclave of South Yarra known as Domain Hill. In one direction: the sophisticated shopping and world-class dining of Toorak Road. In the other: the Yarra River’s green spaces and walking trail. On the subject of greenery, the fields of Fawkner Park and the sprawling Royal Botanic Gardens make an easy escape into nature.
South Yarra
For culinary adventures, local establishments include France Soir, The Botanical, Bacash, Caffe e Cucina, Da Noi and Bar Carolina. These have been joined in more recent years by a wave of equally impressive and firmly neighbourhood favourites such as Yugen and Gilson. They are joined by a string of effortlessly elegant shop fronts that have given High Street a classical European feel for generations.
Avoca places family residents close to notable schools such as Christ Church Grammar School, South Yarra Primary School, Melbourne High School and Melbourne Girls Grammar.
The Domain Street retail precinct, Prahran Market, and Como Centre are all within easy reach. When needing to venture beyond the neighbourhood, transport options include South Yarra station which serves several train lines, multiple bus and tram routes, and access to major freeways.
