85 Prospect Hill Road

Presenting a tasteful synthesis of its original, circa-1903, heritage with a more contemporary, open-plan and alfresco style of living, 'Gustav' is a sympathetically renovated five bedroom, two bathroom Edwardian residence, set on a coveted north-facing allotment of 697sqm*, all within the esteemed Prospect Hill precinct. A block fronted façade is wrapped in a traditional veranda to create a picture-perfect street presence in this home that bridges the past and the present while also keeping an eye on the future. Proudly opening to reveal so many hallmarks of its heritage including soaring ceilings of exquisite detail, Baltic Pine flooring, bay windows and traditional fireplaces - the home flows through a finely detailed arched hallway to a more contemporary rear. Proportioned for family life and anchored by a Neff-equipped gourmet kitchen of stone, the dining/living room extends to an outdoor-heated and undercover deck backed by an opportunity-filled backyard that is a dream for families and entertainers alike. A large and ambient formal lounge room presents a more traditional living space arranged around a classical Victorian fireplace, while the bedrooms are all generously scaled with built-in robes - the front two bedrooms with bay windows and fireplaces and the primary bedroom also with its own ensuite. Further highlights of this character-filled home include driveway parking for two vehicles, a laundry, a bright skylit family bathroom and split systems in all major rooms. This is a wonderful opportunity to lay some long-term family roots in a premier location within the catchment for Camberwell High School, Canterbury Girls Secondary College and Camberwell Primary School, all just moments from the vibrancy of Camberwell Junction and Camberwell Market as well as multiple tram routes and trains from either Camberwell or Riversdale Railway Stations for easy commuting to the CBD or private schools. *approximate land size
