About this property

The Blue Door on Victoria

  • Step into a charming slice of Melbourne character in the heart of Footscray. This beautifully presented three-bedroom home combines classic period details with the comfort and space you want for a relaxed city stay.

    Inside, you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms, with warm timber floors, classic detailing and a welcoming residential feel throughout. The spacious lounge room is made for unwinding, with comfortable seating and a large TV, flowing effortlessly into the dining area and fully equipped kitchen.

    The kitchen offers generous bench space, modern appliances and plenty of storage, making everything from a quick breakfast to a relaxed dinner easy during your stay.

    Then step outside and discover the private brick courtyard — a peaceful little retreat for your morning coffee, an alfresco meal or a glass of wine after a day exploring Melbourne.

    Perfectly positioned in vibrant Footscray, you’ll be surrounded by an exciting mix of cafés, restaurants, markets, shops and local culture, while being within easy reach of Melbourne’s CBD and some of the city’s best inner-west neighbourhoods.

    Comfort, character and a private courtyard — your Melbourne base awaits.

    Enjoy the convenience of having the train station just a 4-minute walk away, making it easy to explore Melbourne and travel into the CBD without needing a car. There’s also a lovely local pub directly across the road, perfect for an easy meal or relaxed drink close to home.
