22a Ramsden Street

Solidly built in 1890 and positioned within one of Clifton Hill's most tightly held pockets, this classic double-brick terrace delivers a rare balance of heritage gravitas and light-filled contemporary living. A traditional single-front façade and semi-detached form set the tone, while a thoughtful rear extension introduces space, flow, and modern functionality without compromising the home's original character. Period integrity is immediately evident through the arched hallway, complete with bespoke built-in bookcase, original fireplaces to two generous bedrooms, and a mix of Baltic pine and blue gum flooring that adds warmth and authenticity throughout. The central bathroom remains true to the era with a clawfoot bath and integrated shower, while an upper-level split staircase leads to a substantial second bathroom and a private third bedroom, ideal for guests, work-from-home or quiet retreat. At the rear, natural light floods an inviting kitchen, living and dining zone where a timber kitchen is anchored by a statement Lacanche gas stove: timeless, elegant and designed to be both used and admired. Bifold doors open seamlessly to a decked courtyard and garden with pedestrian rear access, creating effortless indooroutdoor flow and excellent cross-ventilation. Hydronic heating and split-system air conditioning ensure year-round comfort, completing a residence where craftsmanship, liveability and location align with quiet confidence, close to Clifton Hill trains, Darling Gardens, freeway access, popular schools and cafes/shopping along Queens Parade.
