Selling board games in Victoria
Victoria is the provincial capital, on the southern tip of the island, with the mildest climate in the country and a great deal of preserved heritage architecture. It has a naval base, a university and a population that skews considerably older than the mainland’s.
Downsizing and estate clearances are the dominant source, and because the housing stock is genuinely old so is much of what comes out of it. Naval postings and the university add two further cycles on top.
The inner harbour and the downtown are compact and walkable, which makes small handovers easy. Heritage housing means narrow stairs and doorways, so measure before committing to anything large.
Heritage housing here means narrow stairs and tight turns. Measure the stairwell rather than the doorway, because the half-landing is what actually defeats a sofa in these buildings.
