Hilltop suburb above the CBD — Edwardian villas, 1920s bungalows, and steep-site access challenges. Wind exposure on the ridge is real.
Brooklyn sits on the ridge above the CBD with significant wind exposure across the top of the suburb. Older housing stock is mostly Edwardian villas (1900-1915) and 1920s bungalows, with a strip of newer townhouses near the village.
Steep sites are normal here — most exteriors need scaffolding or harness access on at least one elevation. We factor this into the quote rather than treating it as a variation. Lead-paint testing is almost always required on the pre-1960 housing.
