Living Here Looks Like
Franklin Street is one of those addresses that stops people in their tracks — especially at dusk, when the wraparound verandah lights glow warm against a violet sky and the ornate lacework trim catches the last of the evening light. It's a short stroll to the heart of Traralgon, close to the shops, the cafés down Kay Street, and everything the town centre has to offer. And yet, somehow, it still feels like a quiet retreat.
On the Area
Positioned just moments from Traralgon's CBD, this remarkable property sits at the intersection of heritage charm and urban convenience. Schools, parks, sporting facilities, and everyday essentials are all within easy walking distance — making it as practical as it is impressive. A location that's calm and connected. Right here in Traralgon.
On the Property
What makes 203 Franklin Street truly extraordinary is what it offers on both sides of its story. At the front, a beautifully restored Victorian-era cottage with soaring ceilings, ornate cornices, original fireplaces, and wide timber floorboards — all presented in crisp, contemporary white. The leadlight entry door flanked by sidelights sets the tone immediately, opening onto a long hall that leads gracefully through to the original rooms. Each bedroom is generous and light-filled, with the master featuring four built-in robes and a private ensuite, while a second bedroom with built-in robes sits quietly nearby.
At the rear, the story shifts entirely. A bold, architect-designed two-storey contemporary extension delivers a breathtaking kitchen, family, and dining zone that opens via full-width glass stacker doors onto a large north-facing alfresco — seamlessly blending inside and out. The kitchen itself is a standout: floor-to-ceiling white cabinetry, a mirrored splashback, stone island bench with breakfast seating, quality appliances, and a walk-in pantry. A separate living room with gas fireplace and bespoke built-in cabinetry provides a quieter evening retreat. Upstairs, the glass-balustrated terrace commands sweeping views over the rooftops and treetops of Traralgon — a private perch that's simply stunning. Beautifully balanced. Completely considered.
