Just outside Albury at the evocatively named settlement of Splitters Creek, this Victorian-style house offers a chance to live in modern comfort but with a sense of 19th-century splendour. The house is on two hectares and was designed and built for the vendors. It is surrounded by formal gardens that include high hedges, roses, hedge-lined paths and a wide variety of shrubs and trees. In the house, Victorian features abound, including bay windows, arched hallways, verandahs, high ceilings and a gazebo. There are formal living and dining rooms, a family room and a large eat-in kitchen, which has a classic look.

Buying an interior designer’s house is a smart move; you purchase a well-executed look with high-quality fittings and all the storage and clever touches you could dream of. Here at Somers, this low-maintenance house is built around a courtyard and deck and, inside, it has two wings with one essentially a self-contained one-bedroom unit with its own entry, living room and kitchenette. The wings are linked from a central foyer and the main living room is to the right of this. A huge room, with dining and sitting areas delineated by double-sided Jetmaster fireplaces, it extends to an exquisite kitchen.
