From stunning period homes, to an oversized, inner-city crowd pleaser, here are some of the best homes for sale across Victoria right now.

122-124 Park Street, St Kilda West

One block from the beach, two period houses are cleverly joined by a glass atrium to create a delightfully spacious home. Light spills into a central family room that overlooks a lush garden with trees. Choose from three living spaces. A cocktail shed, and chicken coop are surprise additions. “It’s perfect for older children,” the agent says.

22 Auburn Grove, Armadale

At the heart of this Victorian home is a captivating family room. A finely tuned renovation has resulted in a formal lounge, sleek kitchen and elegant casual living space. Large picture windows connect with the outdoors through a striking rear facade. Parents can reward themselves with the swish main bedroom suite upstairs. The home is close to trams and trains.

19 Logan Street, Canterbury

This dashingly renovated Edwardian home ticks all the family boxes. Designed by Ian McEwan, the family zone skilfully combines window seats, leafy outlooks, a three-sided fireplace and a marble and stone-clad kitchen. The main bedroom includes a dreamy bath, while the front lounge shows off fine period details. The pool, pretty deck and serious outdoor kitchen are ready for summer.

24 Valiant Street, Abbotsford

This oversized inner-city crowd-pleaser has sparked interest even in passive potential buyers, the agent says. The vendor was inspired by mid-century design when creating his family home a decade ago. “It has lots of intimate spaces, a warm feel, and a separate studio above the garage,” the agent says. The elongated kitchen-dining zone opens to a courtyard that’s both relaxing and productive.

29 Austral Avenue, Preston

The two halves of this charming south-of-Bell property come together like a Daylesford-style romantic retreat. The grapevine-draped verandah and four bedrooms are Victorian era. Cross a glazed breezeway and the living-kitchen zone is a modern, open space that was constructed off-site as a modular build. Timbers, big windows with garden views and a covered deck make for easy living.

1A Westley Street, Oakleigh

After 24 years embedded in this neighbourly tree-lined street, the owners of this well-maintained and much-loved period home are downsizing. They preserved its lovely character when they did an extension and introduced the indoor-outdoor lifestyle with a living zone opening to a covered deck and a grassy back garden. “It’s warm and inviting, and in a nice, quiet area,” the agent says.

1 Theodore Court, Toorak

Before he designed the NGV’s iconic water wall, Sir Roy Grounds curved the brick fireplace at this elegant yet playful abode. Both architectural arches live on. This modernist residence (c1958) enjoys cul-de-sac seclusion and has been respectfully maintained by its owners of four decades, with just a studio added atop the garage. Limed timber clads its walls, origami-shaped eaves and raked ceilings.

28 Ralston Street, South Yarra

Shunning conventional design and safe neutrals, this two-storey one-of-a-kind draws on myriad styles to present a quirky personality. “It has the natural light, the airflow and the quality of build, but it’s so lovely to see something different,” the agent says. “It’s a home that creates a buyer.” Find upcycled materials, fluted and louvred windows, steel screens and railway sleepers in the 2013 award-winning design.

44 Byron Street, Elwood

This semi-detached Edwardian is a “right-sized” Goldilocks house for a young family or downsizers. “It has good proportions with a lovely entrance hall, big bedrooms and two living areas,” the agent says. “There’s big demand for these. It’s a neighbourly area, and you can walk to the school, the beach and Tennyson Street cafes.” The interior has a contemporary renovation and a bonus attic.
