Set in historic Ballarat East, 132 Victoria Street is a classic double fronted Victorian home full of period charm. The timber verandah with decorative posts and cast-iron lacework is typical of the period, as is the doorway surrounded by colourful leadlight windows.

Polished timber floors lead from the hallway through to the open plan area at the rear of the home.

Original fireplaces in many of the rooms enhance the character of the home.

The lounge has a gas log heater for warmth, and the home enjoys ducted heating throughout. A modern family bathroom with bath and shower features a delicately designed leadlight window, tying together the old and the new.

The kitchen is spacious, with lots of cupboard and bench space, built-in pantry and gas stove. It adjoins the meals and living areas which look out onto the leafy backyard. Double glass doors lead from the living area out onto an elevated rear deck overlooking the terraced garden. The garden is well established with lush green mature trees, stone-edged beds, and lawn area.
