A pretty row of homogenous heritage homes.
Sitting pretty on one of Melbourne’s most revered streets, 5 Cambridge Street, Armadale offers more than just a picture-perfect facade.
But its famed homogenous heritage streetscape sure is a selling point for the Victorian— and one that will make coming home a visually appealing occurrence.
The street is made up of 32 almost identically decorated timber cottages, which were built in late 1800s, according to Heritage Victoria documents.

Cambridge Street, Armadale features 32 cottages with almost identical designs.
“The cottages were all designed with low-pitched gable roofs having a strongly expressed gable end, circular louvred vents and uniform detailing,” the database reads.
“Today, the street is significant for the repetition of such details.”
While many of the facades have been updated over the years, the transformations must be in-line with heritage guidelines to maintain uniformity.
5 Cambridge Street, Armadale is up for sale.
It has a $1.55-$1.7m price guide.
There’s plenty of period highlights inside.
No. 5 is one of two properties on the street for sale and is listed with a $1.55-$1.7m price guide.
“Cambridge Street is one of the most unique and impressive streets in all of Melbourne,” said Jellis Craig partner Carla Fetter, who is marketing the two-bedroom home.
“Every house is a block-fronted Victorian built in 1892, creating street appeal like no other.”
Inside, elegant and stylish rooms are flooded with natural light.
They also showcase glorious period features, including ornate archways, high ceilings and open fireplaces.
No. 31 is also on the market.
At the other end of street, No. 31 is on the market with a $1.41-$1.55m price tag and is marketed as a “brilliant opportunity to purchase a very attractive two-bedroom Victorian house that would benefit from an upgrade”.
Two other Victorian cottages have sold on Cambridge Street in the past 12 months, according to realestate.com.au.
No. 3 fetched $1.66m in February and a three-bedroom pad at No. 4 sold for $1.875m in 2019.
