Canterbury Road shops and the residential grid around them make up a settled Whitehorse suburb. Brick veneer family houses are the majority, typically single-storey with a tiled roof, a driveway and a private backyard. Weatherboard houses appear in older pockets. Dual occupancies and townhouses have increased on deeper lots and near the main roads, yet they have not replaced the detached pattern. Bellbird Dell and nearby parkland give some edges a bush-reserve character. Vermont is in the Whitehorse area.
Veneer walls chalk on the northern elevation and mark under leaking valley gutters. Timber windows that remain on the weatherboard houses need reputty and sanding at the sill nosing. Boundary fences are close, so side walls are often patchy from limited previous access. When a dual occupancy is cut in beside an original house, the new render and the old brick meet at a joint that should be sealed rather than painted as one plane. Vermont interiors can start with interior painting. exterior painting is priced after we have seen the house. Neighbouring guides: Vermont South, Mitcham, Nunawading and Wantirna.
