Prospect security tip
Protecting a character home
Many Prospect homes are villas and bungalows with timber sash windows and original doors, often with a side path to a long back yard. Keyed window locks, a deadlock and security screen on the back door, and a sensor light over the side path protect a character home without spoiling its look.
Prospect homes and what they mean for security
Prospect's streets are lined with early-1900s villas and inter-war bungalows, many heritage-protected, alongside townhouses and units on subdivided blocks and apartments along Prospect Road. About 35% of homes were rented at the 2021 Census.
