Overview

Prahran is an inner‑city suburb just 5 km south‑east of Melbourne’s CBD, home to 12,203 people according to the 2021 Census. Its bustling commercial strip centres on Chapel Street, where upscale fashion boutiques sit alongside a dense mix of cafés, restaurants and bars, while Greville Street adds a bohemian edge with further eateries, bookstores and music shops. Heritage‑rich streetscapes feature turn‑of‑the‑century emporiums such as the Prahran Arcade and Read’s Stores, and the suburb is dotted with intimate gardens, including Grattan Gardens, Princes Gardens and Victoria Gardens, offering green relief amid the lively precinct.

Transport is excellent, with Prahran station on the Sandringham line and tram routes 5, 6, 64, 72 and 78 serving multiple stops along High, Chapel and Malvern Roads. Housing blends historic single‑storey Victorian and Edwardian terraces with larger double‑storey terraces and a growing stock of medium‑density apartments, many housed in restored heritage buildings, reflecting the suburb’s ongoing urban renewal.
