James Home Rating: 705 | Grade AB+ | September 2026
One for the period lovers.
There is a very cute facade here, with one off-street parking space at the front. Victoria Road is quite wide and carries some traffic, but the street has a great collection of interesting period homes.
The real surprise is inside. The high ceilings, wide hallway and large period rooms give the home a real sense of scale. The main bedroom is particularly generous, with a very large ensuite that you can actually move around in comfortably.
The period rooms continue through the house. One at the rear is currently staged as a bedroom but could easily work as a study or additional living space. The south-facing rear opens onto a courtyard, and there is plenty of character throughout.
The main kitchen and living area is another highlight. The high ceilings continue through, and the outlook to the rear and side gives the space a really good sense of openness.
There is also potential for additional off-street parking from the rear laneway. Access is a little tight as it stands, but there may be an opportunity to alter the fence line and improve the turning circle.
Then you have a little pool, which adds another dimension to the backyard.
There is plenty to like here. For period lovers looking to get into a good school belt, this is definitely one I would come and have a look at.
