Capturing views of Melbourne's best locations: Inside Melbourne's Victoriana apartments
The allure of residing on the fringe of the city has consistently attracted Melburnians to the St Kilda Rd precinct.
The most popular streets have been St Kilda Rd, which has some of Melbourne's most iconic residential buildings, and its adjacent Queens Road which flanks Albert Park Lake.
Developer CDG and Eramount knew the cache of the area when they secured their sprawling 4,645 sqm for their now completed apartment development, Victoriana.
Designed by Rothelowman, Victoriana's architectural design is emphasised with cascading terraces, a vertical garden, and careful consideration of the natural landscape.
"The orientation of each residence has been carefully considered to maximise views across Albert Park Lake, Fawkner Park, Royal Botanical Gardens and the city beyond."

Standing tall at 18 levels, Victoriana elegantly slopes between Melbourne Central Activities district and St Kilda Junction, preserving views of the Shrine of Remembrance. This design reduces the visual impact on nearby homes and improves Queens Road's landscaping.
Completed in March 2021 by Hickory, Victoriana boasts 250 oversized two, three, and four-bedroom apartments, including a super penthouse occupying the entire 16th floor.
Apartments from the ground floor to the ninth have three lifts and a concierge, while the penthouse collection on the 10th to 16th floors has two lifts and an extra concierge for added exclusivity.
Every detail, from meticulously selected fittings and fixtures to the use of top-tier natural materials, has been curated to establish an atmosphere of luxury and sustainability.
Spacious living domains feature state-of-the-art kitchens equipped with high-quality Gaggenau appliances, sleek stone surfaces, and ample preparation and presentation space.
Sun-soaked balconies and private terraces extend the interiors seamlessly from inside to out. A handful of balconies feature private pools and spas with never to be built out views of Albert Park.
While most modern apartments feature communal swimming pools, Victoriana elevates the experience by providing residents with their very own pools.
There's a heated 25-metre indoor swimming pool, a steam room and a sauna, as well as a state-of-the-art gym, equipped with cardio and weights, a lounge and garden terrace, and services like concierge assistance, secure video intercom entry, high-speed lift access, and a porte-cochere.
Across from the infamous Albert Park Lake and situated only a kilometre from the CBD and major parklands and botanic gardens, Victoriana residents are open to the finest restaurants, cafes, boutique shopping, high-end international shopping and public amenities offered in Melbourne.
