The Victorian era takes us back to the 19th century approximately between the years of 1837 – 1910, which was the time when Queen Victoria was in power. It was a peaceful time where much was happening in the UK and in the world.

When British architects and designers moved to places with British colonies like Canada, the United States, New Zealand and Australia, they brought with them the current Victorian style that was so well loved in their homeland. We can still see many of these older Victorian homes standing in places all around the world, and they are honoured for their character and quality. But Victorian homes don't have to be old homes either like this home, newer houses are being built with a Victorian style in mind. This home and others like it will integrate many of the design elements of a classic Victorian home design, with many brackets, scrollwork, spindles, and other ornate items.

The wooden cabinetry and tiled countertops go nicely with the Victorian theme and provide lots of storage and space to prepare meals. There is also storage above the cabinets, which is nice for items that are out on display or things that aren't used too often. The living room area is very cozy and comfortable with a sofa and bookshelves with lots of books.

Behind the sofa are the stairs to go up to the upper level and down to the basement. On the upper level is the bedroom area with sloped ceilings and a few cute windows to let the light in. There's also the bathroom with a nice pedestal sink that looks like a seashell and a stand-up shower as well as a flush toilet. In the basement, there is another little living area with a couch and a small TV with plenty of room for storage.
