1. Should you visit?
James Home Rating: 693
Inspected: 16 August 2025
Position
This is Canterbury Road — and yes, it does carry some traffic. But here, you’re on a better section with car access via a side street, which makes day-to-day living easier. Location is classic Middle Park: close to the lake, beach, schools, and Albert Park Village — all the lifestyle elements buyers want in this suburb.
Land & Size
- 495sqm — very healthy land for Middle Park
- Block shape and depth allow for strong renovation or redesign options without overcapitalising
Property
The home itself is large and single-level — already a rarity in this market.
- Bedrooms: 4
- Bathrooms: 2
- Living areas: 2 (functional, but one may feel a stretch)
- Car: Quoted as 2, though that’s generous — more tandem/compact than spacious garage
- Yard: A bit of garden space out the back, another tick in Middle Park
The façade is attractive, proportions are good, and it all “feels right.” Inside, it’s ready for cosmetic upgrades or a more significant renovation, depending on taste and budget. Either way, you’re working with solid bones.
Buyer Fit
This suits a wide cross-section:
- Singles, couples, or older buyers will appreciate the single-level living.
- Families who want land content and a big footprint may see this as a renovation project.
- Investors/renovators will note the upside given surrounding sales history.
Market & Value
- Quote: Up to $3.9M
- Context: That’s competitive buying for this much land and house in Middle Park. The street’s history of big results underpins long-term value.
- Summary: A really good-feeling property with size, façade, land, and potential. It’s not perfect, but it doesn’t need to be. Renovate well and you’ll have a top-tier Middle Park home.
Large 4-bed, 2-bath period home on 495sqm in Middle Park. Single-level, side-street access, yard, and renovation potential. Quoted up to $3.9M.

There are many opinions of value—but three that really matter: yours, the seller’s, and the market’s. And while only one price will ultimately seal the deal, each number carries a different lens—logic, emotion, positioning. To improve your odds of buying well—not overpaying, not missing out—it helps to understand where the market sits. That’s why we provide a market range, not a single figure. This range reflects agent input, your feedback, peer views, and emotional or practical drivers like living near family or renovation upside. Within it, we define a Control Price—usually the midpoint—your value line for judging overs or unders.
