Camberwell VIC 3124

This 1923 Californian Bungalow has had quite a story, with the latest chapter being 23 years in the making. With each chapter a family grows and develops from infancy to adulthood, and so too the home grows and develops. Located in one of Camberwell's favourite tree lined streets, on approx. 10,350sq feet of land (approx. 958m2) where gardens flourish, the rear gardens designed by Carey Cavanagh, providing leafy views at every window. Still showing signs of the home's infancy with its striking fa ade and entry porch, frosted French door entry, its high ceilings, leadlight windows, picture rails and very generous room sizes.
The original home provides a formal lounge, with a delightful bay window and solid fuel fireplace, plus adjoining dining/study with wall to wall bookcases. 2 bedrooms with expansive BIRs share a large, modern bathroom. In 1992 it developed with a stunning extension to the rear, providing a bright open plan living area embellished with Tasmanian Oak flooring, tall vaulted ceilings and raked windows, with French doors out to the rear entertaining patio and solar salt-water in-ground pool. The extensive kitchen is dressed with Caesar stone with abundant storage drawers, an appliance cupboard and corner pantry, and cooking is effortless with the double oven, 900mm cooktop, dishwasher and Qasair extractor fan. The extension provides an additional two attic style bedrooms upstairs that kids will love, including BIRs and split system air conditioning, serviced by a central spacious bathroom.
Whilst holding the charm of its infancy, the home now possesses today's essentials of fabulous storage options, programmable ducted heating, security alarm, and a massive 27,500 litres of water storage connected to front and rear garden dripper system. The gardens are immaculately tended, including a vegetable plot, plus a bricked storage shed and double carport.
