James Home Rating: 618 | Grade B+ | November 2026
A character period home with plenty going for it. Yes, it is dated and the bathroom is in the wrong place, but the high ceilings, good flow and retained period features give it real appeal. Surprisingly good natural light despite the apartment development along the northern boundary.
There is some visual bulk from the backyard, but it is not overly intrusive.
The real attraction is the potential. Plans are available showing several ways to extend or rework the home, although you could equally move straight in and enjoy it as it is.
Single level living will suit downsizers, while the location works for families. Hawthorn Village and Toorak Village are both within easy walking distance, with train access nearby.
Some daytime traffic from Mathura Road, but relatively quiet at night.
A good little home with plenty of possibilities.
