150 Richardson Street Albert Park - James Buyer Advocates

150 Richardson Street, Albert Park 

This double-fronted Edwardian on 209sqm offers an authentic sense of home — solid brick, well-proportioned, and positioned in one of Albert Park’s quieter pockets. The first impression is good: there’s volume, warmth, and a genuine rhythm as you move from front sitting to dining, kitchen, and out to the courtyard. It’s not flashy, but it’s comfortable and grounded. The rear narrows slightly, though the flow downstairs is one of its strengths — it feels open and connected, helped by natural light and well-proportioned rooms.

The main drawback is bathroom design. The two downstairs bedrooms share a single hall-access bathroom, and upstairs, one bedroom’s ensuite leaves the other without its own facilities. It works if you treat the upper level as a parents’ retreat and study, but less so as a four-bedroom family layout. There’s also some compromise around downstairs access and plumbing practicality if you were to renovate.

In essence, this is a family home with heart — not perfect, but solid where it counts. If you value feel, land size, and flow over perfection, it’s well worth shortlisting. For clients weighing bathroom trade-offs versus liveability, that’s exactly where an independent advocate can clarify the value story.
