$1.3 million-$1.4 millionBRIGHTON2 Yuille StreetAuction 10.30am, March 19Agent RT Edgar, 9592 9299Melway 76 F3IT'S been a long time since this Victorian villa was on the market, having been in the same family for 82 years. And with its striking red-brick and green-trimmed exterior, they don't make them like this anymore. The interior is healthy enough but the 21st-century buyer may choose to modernise if they're not keen on the wallpapered rooms and slightly dated look. There are some classic features though, including the gorgeous detailing on the ceiling of the formal living room. The rear garden stretches back some way, so extending the three-bedroom house is feasible. Alternatively, the outside space could be cultivated into a tranquil retreat.
