68 Victoria Street, Eaglehawk VIC 3556

Victorian-era house | heritage overlay | Eaglehawk centre | dual living zones The property offers a rare combination of period character and functional modern layout that is difficult to find in Eaglehawk’s current market. The heritage façade, high timber-lined ceilings, and open fireplaces provide genuine differentiation from newer stock, while the updated kitchen and bathroom remove the need for immediate capital works. Two separate living areas and a covered alfresco deck make this house suitable for families or professionals who want space without a large landholding. The 555m² block is manageable, and the double carport adds practical appeal. This property best suits a buyer who values architectural authenticity and walkability over renovation potential or expansion. The heritage overlay is the primary constraint. Any external alterations, including window changes, veranda work, or rear extensions, will require council approval and likely a heritage consultant, adding time and cost to future plans. The conflicting building size data (114m² versus 249m²) suggests the internal footprint is modest, and the larger figure likely includes the veranda and carport, so buyers should verify actual floor area. The property has not traded since 2011, so current pricing is untested at this level. Rental yield is moderate, but the house is better suited as a long-term hold for owner-occupation or as a lifestyle investment rather than a high-yield rental play. Buyers should proceed with a building and pest inspection and confirm heritage obligations before exchange.
