13 Ruskin Road

Glen Iris VIC 3146

Set within one of Glen Iris's most established and tightly held pockets, 13 Ruskin Road presents a rare and compelling opportunity to secure a property with a true sense of place. Tucked behind leafy trees on a quiet street, the home occupies a gently sloping allotment of approximately 557sqm, backing directly onto the expansive greenery of Back Creek Reserve. With no rear neighbour and an uninterrupted park vista, this is a setting few properties can match.

The existing home, full of character with its original weatherboard faade and period charm, is ready for those looking to restore, extend or completely redevelop (STCA). With no heritage overlay, the scope for transformation is wide open-whether you're planning a modern architectural build that capitalises on the elevation and treetop views or a thoughtful renovation that respects the era of the home.

Beyond the back gate, walking trails meander through native bushland and open park spaces, creating a seamless extension of the backyard into nature. The position is further enhanced by proximity to Ferndale Park, Leo's Fine Food & Wine, Hartwell Station, trams, and local buses-all within walking distance. For drivers, the Monash Freeway is easily accessed, offering convenience to the city and beyond.
