About this property

"The Sophia" Milan meets New York in Melbourne

Located in the iconic Dimmeys Tower this exquisite two-bedroom apartment oozes Italian culture and style, all within the beating heart of Richmond.

The landmark building lends itself to the superbly curated interior, which is highlighted by the historic internal wall boasting the original signage from Dimmeys’ drapery division.

Italian furnishings complement the feature arch windows which overlook the bustling bohemia of Swan Street.

The space
This home away from home nods to Mediterranean styling – from the Natuzzi sideboards and sculpted doors to the Fanuli beds, Kristalia BCN stools and Ormulu side tables. The Bromley furnishings, B&B italia couches, Tonchi light fixture and Herman Miller swag table add a layer of sophistication and style to a truly memorable space.

Located just two minutes from Rod Laver Arena and the MCG and one minute from the Richmond train station, everything the city has to offer is just a stone’s throw away. Catch a tram into the city and Docklands and experience the CBD or stay closer to home.

Perfectly positioned, you’re only five minutes from the Yarra and Botanic Gardens, and the Fitzroy Gardens are within walking distance. And the apartment is conveniently located above a Coles supermarket.

Experience Melbourne in a unique slice of Victorian history, with luxurious, modern appointments for a truly memorable stay.

Style and Comfort

Danny's apartment was perfect for our group. It was comfortable, especially the beds, and we loved the location. It was an easy walking distance to the Australian Open tennis tournament.

Taylor Swift getaway

We stayed at Dannys apartment for 4 nights so that we could take our 17yo daughter and her friend to see taylor swift at the MCG. it was a fantastic stay in an absolute gem of a location. it was an easy walk back to the apartment from the mcg. what was most special was that we had a view of swan street and there was an awesome mural on hugos wall of taylor swift. we saw many fans line up to have their photos taken against the wall. we also saw the fans walking back each night from the concert with their special outfits and light up wrist bands. we were spent many hours looking out the fabulous large art deco windows of the apartment looking onto swan street to see the excitement and buzz of swan street and tay tay fans. location fantastic. super easy shopping at coles, fabulous gelato, spelt free pizzas, grilled burgers, wine bars, our roof top bar and bbq with coles kebabs and hot spa to soak off 3.5 hrs of tay tay. historic building with many stories - my step father in law was born around the corner and remembered visiting the dimmeys store! memorable building so many fabulous memories. thank you danny, we look forward to coming back and visiting again. we look forward to hearing more about your tower project :-). see you next time. tammy, brian and amelie.
