Hemming Street 3 Townhouses

17 Hemming Street, Brighton East VIC 3187

Gambit Property proudly presents the Hemming Street development project, a premium townhouse development located in the highly sought-after suburb of Brighton East.

This boutique development consists of three architecturally designed townhouses, combining modern design, functional layouts, and high-quality finishes to deliver a superior living experience.

Positioned in a prime residential pocket, the project benefits from close proximity to schools, parks, transport, and lifestyle amenities, making it ideal for both owner-occupiers and investors.

The project has been carefully planned to maximise land value, optimise design efficiency, and deliver strong market appeal in one of Melbourne's most established suburbs.

  • Close to elite schools including Haileybury & St Leonard's
  • Minutes to Brighton Beach, Church Street & Bay Street
  • Excellent connectivity to Melbourne CBD, approximately 20 minutes
Investment Appeal
  • Proven resale market for $1.7M to $2.1M+ townhouses
  • Limited supply of new developments
  • High demand from owner-occupiers and affluent buyers
