Genuine Piece Of Melbourne Architectural History

As featured in The Age.

This property has been proudly sold by Tommy-Lee Davies of Ray White Southbank | Melbourne City, a specialist to the Melbourne 3004 market. If you would like further information about this property, or need advice on buying or selling within The Grosvenor or surrounding St Kilda Road and Queens Road precinct, please contact Tommy-Lee directly.

In 1887, during the boom years of "Marvellous Melbourne," celebrated hotelier William C. Wilson commissioned this grand mansion, naming it Lanark. Electricity was still seven years from reaching the Melbourne streets, this home was lit by candlelight, while the stables at the rear kept the horses that carried the household through the city.

The house went on to house some of Melbourne's most prominent figures over the following decades. Around 1939 it took on a new identity as Grosvenor, and operated as a luxury reception venue. The Australian Army acquired the property in 1942 for £25,000 and put it to military use for more than half a century.

What stands today is a carefully restored heritage façade, now home to just six luxury apartments.

Among them, M6 holds the top-floor corner position and is the only apartment in the building with a private balcony. Its original character has been preserved throughout, soaring arches and a fireplace that has warmed residents across fourteen decades.

This is a rare opportunity, the first time M6 has been offered to the market in the 18 years since the building's redevelopment.
