Victoria’s property market features unusual homes with historic backgrounds. These include a former bank in Violet Town with an intact vault, a converted school in Woodford with original desks, and a tiny bootmaker’s shop in Ascot Vale. Other listings include a former police station in Eildon with a lockup, an old pub in Guildford, and a transformed post office in St Arnaud. Prices range from $390,000 to $1.09 million.
Leongatha residents can now book an Uber after the rideshare company switched on its service in the town and 14 other regional Victorian centres. The Leongatha zone also covers Korumburra, Mirboo North and Inverloch. Uber said driver availability would build over the coming weeks, and riders should allow extra travel time during peak periods. Eligible Victorian Seniors Card and Seniors Savers Card holders can get discounts on their rides. Uber is still recruiting drivers in all 15 new centres.
