Browse property in South Street

South Street runs through the flat, historically low‑density residential core of Preston, where early farmland gave way to post‑war Housing Commission of Victoria dwellings and later medium‑density redevelopment, creating a blend of modest homes and newer apartments. The streetscape reflects the suburb’s shift toward higher‑density housing amid an active, culturally diverse community.

The street is well served by public transport, with Preston railway station on the Mernda line, several tram stops on Plenty Road (e.g., Gower St/Plenty Rd, David St/Plenty Rd) and an extensive bus network linking the area to Melbourne’s CBD and surrounding suburbs. Within easy walking distance are amenities such as Preston High School, the 3KND Indigenous radio station, the former Preston Post Office and police station, and the cafés and restaurants that have recently revitalised nearby High Street.
