55 Campbell Road, HAWTHORN EAST VIC 3123

Treasured for years by the existing owners, this graceful, c1890 Victorian home sits proudly on a treelined streetscape. An exquisite garden setting provides tranquillity and creates leafy outlooks that complement the ultimate privacy of a significant allotment measuring 527 sqm (approx.). Perfectly comfortable now, plenty of potential exists to reimagine over time, perhaps embarking on a full-scale architect-designed renovation, making the most of prized north facing positioning (STCA). High ceilings, period dimensions, polished timber floorboards and timeless traditional features accent a flexible floorplan that features six principal rooms, perfect for use as three or four bedrooms as desired. Six fireplaces (five functional) add additional appeal with distinctive marble fireplaces taking pride of place in the main bedroom and formal sitting room. Restful views to the north feature in the family room and well-equipped kitchen, while a central bathroom completes the ground floor. Descend to the garden level where two workshops and a large storeroom are complemented by a laundry that doubles as an inviting retreat or sunroom. The rear garden presents a wonderful space for entertaining, and additional features include heating, cooling, two water tanks and a carport accessed by a rear laneway. Enjoy everything that comes with this premier position: excellent tram connections, good proximity to Camberwell junction and station, a choice of local parks and reserves, zoning to Camberwell Primary and Auburn High, and easy access to an elite selection of esteemed private schools.
