Seafarers is transforming the city’s last remaining expanse of undeveloped riverside land into a waterfront precinct of extraordinary quality and character. Centred on an inspired reimagining of the heritage-protected Goods Shed 5 by Fender Katsalidis, this visionary new Yarra River precinct will feature a boutique collection of residences above Australia’s first 1 Hotel, and deliver extensive riverfront parkland for all of Melbourne to enjoy.
ABSOLUTE RIVERFRONT LIVING
Sublimely crafted, light-filled and offering sweeping Yarra views, Seafarers Residences represents a final, never-to-be-repeated opportunity to experience true riverfront living in the growing heart of Melbourne. Grand in scale and complete with access to a host of unique owner privileges and amenities by 1 Hotel, each residence promises a zero maintenance lifestyle of pure, effortless simplicity.
WE WANT TO CREATE A PLACE THAT MELBOURNE CAN BE TRULY PROUD OF - A PLACE THAT INSPIRES, EXCITES AND BRINGS THE YARRA RIVER TO LIFE.

AUSTRALIA’S FIRST 1 HOTELS DESTINATION
1 Hotels will provide a luxurious riverfront sanctuary at Seafarers that encourages guests and Melburnians to live each moment consciously. Inspired by nature and place, 1 Hotel Melbourne will cultivate the best of sustainable design and architecture, innovative programming and locally sourced produce, together with extraordinary comfort and an unrivalled level of service.
MELBOURNE’S MARITIME HISTORY,
HONOURED AND PRESERVED
During the 1850s Gold Rush the Yarra was Melbourne’s busiest commercial port, with a 12-berth wharf complex that stretched from Seafarers to Spencer Street and beyond. Today, only the wharf at Seafarers, its good shed and iconic travelling crane remain. Under the stewardship of developer Riverlee, the new riverfront precinct will preserve these historic features, ensuring their story can be celebrated for generations to come.
DEVELOPED BY RIVERLEE
A trusted, award-winning brand within the Australian property market, but still a family business at heart, Melbourne-based Riverlee is inspired by the exciting potential of landmark urban renewal projects like Seafarers. Deeply respectful of local history, our vision for this precinct redefines the possibilities of inner city living, while responding thoughtfully to its heritage and cultural significance.
