A three storey Victorian-era building at 105 Little Bourke Street fetched $3.5 million, at a record 2.6% yield for Melbourne's Chinatown.

It was a Chinatown record of $16,338 a square metre through CBRE.

A mainland Chinese investor purchased the property which has been occupied by a Japanese restaurant.

There were 18 contracts issued to potential buyers in the tender for the 118 square metre offering.
