CAMBERWELL

OBVIOUS:

Built in 1979, a collector knows true value comes from an asset kept in original condition — and this home has only seen only one owner for the entirety of its life.

This freestanding home resides in a quiet, private drive with plenty of beautifully maintained common gardens within arm’s-reach. Generous proportions and a north-facing façade sets the scene for this two-bedroom home, designed for low maintenance and ease of living spread out over a single level.

Two spacious bedrooms include built-in-robes. The original owner has anticipated a modern design trend as the living area flows into the dining space seamlessly and the bathroom also includes a separate bath. The kitchen features plenty of built-in storage and has a beautiful perspective overlooking the rear private courtyard.

The idyllic retreat comes in the form of an expansive courtyard garden, equipped with your very own veggie garden and countryside-esque peace and quiet. The property also boasts one private carport with its own lockable storage cupboard and room for a visitor’s car space.

Surrounded by gardens, schools, and Camberwell Junction, this is a beautiful pocket of Camberwell that is completely connected to the rest of Melbourne through trams and Willison or Hartwell railway station. Everything you need is in walking distance, including Bowen Gardens — a favourite for the kids to play, located at the end of the street.

SEALS THE DEAL:

Privacy, tranquillity, and potential — this is the perfect opportunity to take something truly classic and bring it into 2022. It’s ready for its next lifetime and its roots couldn’t be set in a better neighbourhood.
