Davies Street Port Melbourne is home to a set of very exclusive apartments. Although the orange and yellow rendered homes architecturally might not agree with all, this cute street is kept in immaculate condition, with fantastic greenery and a family orientated feel to it. Parking is a pain however due to the cramped nature of the street, but the location and proximity to Bay Street makes this one of the best streets to live in all of Port Melbourne

Esplanade Place is more of a back alleyway that houses the back fences to the homes situated on Esplanade E. Poor conditioned street, and tough to drive down...needs a refurb. Nothing special at all.

Lyons Street Port Melbourne has some great things to offer. First of all, closer to Raglans Street there is some beautiful greenery, some of the best in all of Port Melbourne. Second of all, the proximity to Bay Street makes this one of the best locations in the entire suburb, and being quite a wide street, this is a great buy for anyone looking in the area. It also has the added benefit of feeling quite secluded, even though it runs parallel to Bay Street.

Very wide street, older style homes mostly brick and weatherboard 2 story townhouses. A little bit rundown in parts, but some of the houses are going through some major redevelopment and renovation. It's definitely a street to watch out for in a year or two, I would think there are some property developers making a bit of cash here.

Livability is quite high though, as the location is fantastic. It runs just right on St Vincent Gardens, not to mention Bridport Street (great coffee at some of the cafe's here) and connects to Kerford Road. Only a short walk to the beach, and also Albert Park Lake. Hard to beat, especially in a couple of years.

Danks Street in Albert Park is a very wide street with great greenery. Some nice townhouses closer to Port Melbourne, but as you move towards middle park, the houses do get worse and worse, and graffiti starts to kick in. Don't get me wrong, Danks St is very nice with fantastic location, especially being so close to the beach and access to public transport. You also are right on Victoria Avenue, which has great cafe's and more.

Cambridge street in Port Melbourne is secluded cosy little street just off Alfred Street. Some of the houses should be torn down and redeveloped. It is reasonable clean, but I think there are better locations in Port Melbourne closer to the beach.

Canberra Parade runs parallel to the major tram line in Port Melbourne that takes you directly into the city. While this can be good in terms of public transport, it can be bad for noise and graffiti.

There are better area's to live in Port Melbourne I think, moving closer to the middle of Beacon Cove would be ideal for many. While there are some families and elderly living in this street, and such has a very friendly feel, i think there are better.

Princess Street in Port Melbourne is a street of two faces. On one hand you have the side closer to the city on the opposite side of Graham Street, which looks a bit run down. It clearly is in need of some renovation, especially the rundown townhouses. I think there are some savvy property developers already looking at this area because on the other side of Graham Street, redevelopment has already taken place!

There are some amazing apartments as you move closer to the beach, especially the ones right on Waterfront Place. The location is fantastic, being so close to the beach and Waterfront Place.

Overall, depending on which end of Princess Street you are on will make a huge difference. Definitely aim for the beach side, because that's a fantastic place to be.

Alfred Street in Port Melbourne comprises mostly of brick and weather board townhouses. It is also a one way street, which can be a bit of a pain, but there are some extremely nice renovated townhouses along here which deserve mention.

Visually, its very clean and wide, compared to some others in the immediate area, it's one of the better ones.

Also, there are some townhouses which are in clear need of renovations, so investor's check it out!!

Carlisle Street is one of the main streets in St Kilda. It does carry a lot of traffic especially at peak hour, and off street parking can sometimes be a pain, but it is there. Public Transport is obviously a huge plus.

Personally I would not want to live on Carlisle St, it's too busy for me. Not to mention you sometimes get some hookers\prostitutes hanging around, as you do on Grey Street and Greeves Street.

Overall, there are a lot better streets to live in the area.

Blessington St is a little bit of a thoroughfare, however the mansion style houses, massive parks (Renfrey Gardens and St Kilda Public Gardens), closeness to public transport ( on both Barkly St and Brighton Rd \ Carlisle St) and overall family feel make this a very desired street in St Kila.

Overall you'd be blessed to live in Blessington Street :)
