Lower Plenty Block, Once Part of Bigger Estate, For Sale on Yarra River Banks
The block once formed part of the Yarrowee Estate – a landmark property in the area, which accommodated a young Prince Charles during his stay as a student at Timbertop, nearby.
Lower Plenty is wedged between the Plenty and Yarra rivers in Melbourne’s north east.
Its big blocks and leafy backdrop make it more exclusive than abutting suburbs Templestowe Lower, Heidelberg, Montmorency and Templestowe.
Amongst its highest profile residents are comedian Peter Helliar (who lives in Plenty), and underworld figure Mick Gatto, whose life could soon be the subject of a reality TV show by US producer Toby Yoshimura, who also produced The Jerry Springer Show.
