A quiet pocket of Californian bungalows and post-war homes on the Dandenong line, Hughesdale is well suited to Brodco's character-friendly wardrobe work.
Hughesdale is a small, quiet suburb on the Dandenong railway line, with a housing stock mostly made up of Californian bungalows and post-war homes on modest, tightly held blocks. It doesn't have the commercial bustle of neighbouring Oakleigh, but that same quiet character is part of its appeal to long-term residents.
Brodco has fitted wardrobes across Hughesdale for years, and because the suburb's housing stock is fairly uniform in age, we're usually working with similar room proportions from one job to the next, which helps us give an accurate estimate even before the free measure.

Hughesdale station keeps the suburb well connected without the retail intensity of nearby Oakleigh, and its streets are dominated by Californian bungalow and post-war housing.
Oakleigh, Huntingdale, Chadstone, Ashwood are on our regular run too, right next door.
Given the generally modest size of Hughesdale's bungalow and post-war bedrooms, a built-in wardrobe with a well-designed interior is usually the more practical option than converting space to a walk-in. Where a home has been extended out the back, a walk-in wardrobe can work well in the new main bedroom, and we'll assess that at the measure.
The original wardrobes in Hughesdale's Californian bungalows are usually hinged timber doors set into a fairly shallow cavity, which limits hanging depth compared to a modern wardrobe. In the post-war homes, we more often find a single sliding-door robe that's too narrow for two people's wardrobes, a common issue across this whole era of housing.
Yes, we measure the existing cavity depth and design the internal layout to make the most of it, or rebuild the opening slightly deeper where the room allows.
It's part of our regular service area on the Dandenong line corridor, quoted the same as anywhere else we cover.
Yes, we regularly design wardrobes for new or extended bedrooms as part of a broader renovation.
Where the opening can't be widened, we focus on maximising vertical space and internal organisation; where it can, we'll discuss extending the opening at the free measure.
Every wardrobe we install, including in Hughesdale, is backed by a 10-year guarantee.
