Antique Shopping Day Trip from Perth: Northam and Toodyay

A day exploring Northam Secondhand and Toodyay Antiques brings together two different antique-shopping experiences in Western Australia’s Avon Valley. For visitors setting out from Perth, the shops can be combined into one outing on Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday. They are approximately 25 minutes apart, with separate selections and different closing times.

Start at Northam Secondhand

Northam Secondhand is a large, family-run shop at 232 Fitzgerald Street, Northam WA 6401, opposite the Northam Post Office. Furniture, decorative objects and practical things from earlier decades sit alongside unusual collectables.

Browse furniture such as desks, dining tables, bookcases and sideboards, together with art glass, ceramics, books and Western Australian collectables. Victorian, Federation and later furniture forms part of the changing range. Our About Us page explains how the business grew from books and collectables.

Northam hours: Wednesday–Friday 10am–4pm; Saturday–Sunday 10am–2pm. Closed Monday and Tuesday.

Continue to Toodyay Antiques

Toodyay Antiques occupies historic Connor’s Cottage at 5 Piesse Street, Toodyay WA 6566, beside the Toodyay Visitor Centre. The cottage setting offers a different scale of browsing from the larger Northam shop.

The current selection includes decorative ceramics and tableware, brooches, pocket watches, boxed diecast model cars, old telephones and furniture. Browse the Toodyay Antiques collection for examples, photographs and prices. Stock changes, and the two shops do not hold identical ranges.

Toodyay hours: Thursday–Friday 10am–2pm; Saturday–Sunday 10am–3pm. Closed Monday–Wednesday.

A suggested day: Thursday–Sunday

10am: begin in Northam. Allow the morning to browse Northam Secondhand. Starting here is particularly useful at weekends, when Northam closes at 2pm and Toodyay remains open until 3pm.

Around noon: leave for Toodyay. Allow approximately 25 minutes between shops, plus a little extra time to find your way. Aim to reach Toodyay Antiques around 12:30pm. This leaves browsing time before its 2pm weekday closing or 3pm weekend closing.

Both shops are open together Thursday–Sunday under their regular hours. Wednesday suits Northam only. Check our social pages for public holiday hours before setting out, and plan your departure from Perth using current directions and road conditions.
