The Snapshot:
What sets 9 Brisbane Street apart is the rare pairing of authentic 1895 heritage and a landholding you simply don't expect to find this close to town. Three-metre ceilings, pine floorboards, decorative cornices, a bay window and a stained-glass entry - original details carried through with care. Behind the home, a deep, substantial block opens to a powered shed, workshop, and carport, giving the next owner room to tinker, store, work from home, or simply spread out. It's character and capability in one address.

The Home:
Set behind sandstone and iron fencing, with a bullnose verandah and a solid timber door framed by stained glass, 9 Brisbane Street wears its age beautifully.

This is a circa-1895 brick home that has held onto the things you can't put back once they're gone - and it shows from the moment you step into the hallway, where pendant lighting and three-metre ceilings set the tone for everything that follows.

Inside, pine timber floorboards run throughout, paired with decorative cornices, ceilings and picture rails that speak to the era. The lounge room is the home's character heart: a timber-mantled fireplace anchors the space, French double doors connect it through to the adjoining living area, and a split system keeps it comfortable in any season.

From here, the floor plan reveals its flexibility - a long, light-filled living room runs the depth of the home, wrapped in louvre windows and sheer curtains, opening out to the rear deck. It's the kind of room that adapts to whatever a household needs.

The kitchen balances period feel with everyday function, with open timber shelving, a timber benchtop, and a subway-tiled splashback, sitting alongside quality appliances.

Three bedrooms offer comfortable, characterful accommodation, the front room enjoying a lovely bay window and the others finished with picture rails, timber doors, ceiling fans and their own air conditioning. The combined bathroom and laundry is a standout, with a freestanding clawfoot bath, subway tiles, timber-topped cabinetry, and decorative pendant lighting that bring personality and practicality together.

Outdoors is where the property's flexibility really comes into its own. A covered timber alfresco deck overlooks established gardens and a fully fenced backyard, while a powered shed, a separate workshop with office space, and a carport provide scope for trades, hobbies, storage, or working from home. Add upgraded electrical, NBN to the home, and a deep landholding, and the result is a heritage home with the rare ability to grow with you.

Walking distance to Lorn village and Maitland's CBD, 9 Brisbane Street offers character you can't replicate, space you don't often find, and a lifestyle that puts everything within easy reach.
