7m ceiling 1888 Heritage warehouse loft Middle CBD

A rare 1888 heritage historically protected warehouse featured on the news. Completely renovated in 2019 and converted into a New York styled loft with 7 metre ceilings right in the middle of Melbourne. Situated right in the heart of Melbourne next to the famed Hardware Lane, full of cafes, restaurants and bars, not to mention just steps away from Bourke Street Mall and Melbourne Central station, I doubt you can find a better location anywhere.
