James Home Rating: 628 | Grade B | March 2026
Northcote remains popular for its city proximity and strong neighbourhood feel, usually defined by renovated period homes. This one changes the script. A brand new home, never lived in, offering the chance to skip the building process entirely.
Accommodation is generous with multiple bathrooms and good off street parking. Practically, it is very easy to live in.
The trade off is outdoor space. The yard is modest and there is a touch of rear overlooking, though planting should soften that over time.
So the question becomes simple. Accept the smaller yard, or buy land and build yourself, with all the time and risk that brings.
