Victorian terraces

Nineteenth-century attached homes

Victorian terraces are rows of joined houses built during Queen Victoria's reign (1837–1901), sharing side walls and presenting uniform facades along a street.

Common in British and Australian cities, they typically feature brick construction, decorative ironwork, and small front gardens.

The style arose from rapid urbanization—an efficient way to house growing industrial populations.

The neighborhood's Victorian terraces have been lovingly restored.
