From Fitzroy's achingly cool Smith St to bustling Bourke St and bayside Art Deco apartments hugging the city centre, you only need to look up to see the wonders of Melbourne's iconic architectural past.
In many cases these Art Deco and Victorian beauties have had a new lease of life with updated internal development and refurbishment. There's never been a better time to snap up a bargain that offers the benefits of iconic architecturally designed inner city living (with an occasional bayside breeze).
And if you're keen to venture one hour out of town, we've also hunted down a Ballarat gold rush beauty coming in under 500K. And it's a whole house!
