16 Avenue Road, Camberwell

Camberwell High School zoning, a freestanding Victorian profile and space to grow make this one far more than a charming period home. Behind the picket fence, leafy garden and iron lacework, it has the character you’ll love, the comfort to live in now and the ingredients to become something exceptional.

The front verandah opens to a traditional single-level plan, where soaring 3.2m ceilings, deep cornices, an arched hallway and exposed brick bring texture and soul from the first step. Two bedrooms sit off the entry, one with built-in robes and a fireplace, before the layout leads to a living room with another fireplace. The kitchen includes a dishwasher and meals area.

A refurbished bathroom, laundry, second toilet and garage keep things practical for now, while the real excitement lies in what could come next. Extend out, build up or rework the rear to create a brilliant blend of character and contemporary family living, subject to council approval. The private laneway access at the back gives any future project a clear advantage, with room for a builder’s truck, materials or skip bin to come and go with less disruption.

The location adds serious lifestyle pull. Walk to Camberwell Junction, Rivoli Cinemas, Sunday Market, trains, trams, cafes and shops, with Camberwell Primary School, Camberwell Sports Ground and Fritsch Holzer Park close by.
