A Victorian-style cottage has been transformed into a vibrantly quirky home with an operable hills hoist sculpture hanging over the lounge.
Just 25 minutes west of Melbourne’s city centre, the wacky semi-detached property is the most colourful house on its suburban Yarraville street.
With dashes of bright orange contrasting tones of grey, a rainbow mini-library for passersby to take books and retro-style decorative gates, the eclectic home is just as quirky inside as it is out.

Sliding glass doors let natural light illuminate the living room and open out to the decked courtyard with PVC pipe planters hanging from the fence
The living space also features a home study area big enough for two people to work from home as well as polished concrete floors and a striking hills hoist hanging from the ceiling that is fully operational
Through the front door, a stretching hallway with a world-map mural covering the walls and floor leads past two bedrooms and a bathroom to the open-plan lounge and kitchen.
Covering the walls are bespoke timber cabinets extending from the kitchen to the lounge that make statement with two different tones of wood, black and white.
