6/69 Victoria St, Forestville is a 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom Unit with 1 parking spaces and was built in 1900. The property has a land size of 222m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in July 2025.
Stone-fronted, symmetrical, and standalone, this circa 1900 cottage is every bit the city-fringe charmer - but don't mistake charm for limitation. Behind that tidy facade is a tightly-held home with its best days still ahead.
Sure, it's cute. Really cute. But behind the stone facings and lacework trim is a home that lives far larger than its compact street presence suggests.
Baltic pine boards stretch underfoot, decorative ceilings soar above, and the ornate fireplace stands its ground in a central lounge that's all warmth and welcome - a natural divide between the two generous bedrooms and the rear of the home.
The kitchen lives in a classic lean-to - humble, light-filled, and surprisingly spacious. It works, it always has. But it's also itching for a value-adding reboot.
Those with bigger plans, go all out with a rear addition that turns garden into gallery, dials up the glazing, and reshapes the rhythm of the entire home.
The rear laneway access to a secure carport only sweetens the deal in this city-fringe pocket that's long been admired for its character and connectivity - just steps from the train and moments to the buzz of Goodwood Road and King William's best.
In a suburb where cottages like this rarely change hands, this one gives you the past, present and future - all wrapped up in sandstone and possibility.
