The property is a unit situated in the Docklands precinct of Melbourne.
Docklands is an inner‑city suburb on the western edge of Melbourne’s central business district, bordered by Spencer Street, Wurundjeri Way, the Yarra River and the West Gate Freeway.
The unit is within 0.1 km of the NewQuay Prom/Docklands Dr tram stop and 0.2 km of the Waterfront City/Docklands Dr stop, with Southern Cross railway station a short walk away providing train connections.
Residents are a few minutes’ walk from The District Docklands shopping mall, Docklands Stadium, O'Brien Icehouse, the Melbourne Star observation wheel and the waterfront promenade along Harbour Esplanade.
According to the 2021 census, Docklands has a population of 15,495. The area is multicultural, with significant communities from China, India, South Korea and Malaysia, and most dwellings are apartments.
Originally a swamp and later a bustling port in the 1880s, Docklands fell into decline after containerisation and was redeveloped from the early 2000s into a mix of commercial, residential and entertainment precincts, featuring contemporary architecture and several waterfront landmarks.
