5 Haileybury Street, Brighton

James Home Rating: 630 | Grade B | February 2026

 

608 square metres with a north facing rear. On paper it ticks a few boxes, but the feel of the home is more modest than the headline details might suggest.


How to read this home:

  • Bungalow style, extended over time into a five bedroom rambler

  • North facing rear, though the natural light is not as strong as you might expect

  • A home that presents as functional rather than architectural

 

What works:

  • 608 square metres in a proven Brighton location

  • 5 genuine bedrooms, flexibility for family living

  • Good sized garage, a real plus at this level

  • North rear orientation, always a positive in principle

 

What holds it back

  • Rear living not especially light due to substantial alfresco and built form at the back

  • Upstairs ceilings feel tight, you are pushed into the roofline

  • Overall feel is fairly average for the $4.3 million ask

 

Who this suits

  • Buyers wanting Brighton land content with a comfortable, ready to live in home

  • Families needing five bedrooms without chasing high end architectural flair

  • Those comfortable assessing value closely against price expectations

 

At $4.3 million, this one will ultimately come down to how buyers weigh land, layout and feel against the broader Brighton market.
