16 Brynmawr Road, Camberwell, Vic 3124

Updating a classic California Bungalow with an inspired contemporary expansion, and opening out to a light-filled rear living space and entertainer’s deck showcasing sublime city-skyline views, this gorgeous three-storey, five-bedroom residence is a masterwork of tasteful family luxury in an enviable Camberwell location.

Unfolding over three storeys and sitting on 901 sqm (approx) with distinctive split-level design, the home is set behind a tranquil front garden. Step into the hall and find decorative fretwork, one of the period flourishes (decorative ceilings, bay windows, fireplaces with grand marble mantels) evoking the home’s century of history throughout the formal lounge, dining, and primary bedroom. Move through to the brilliant rear living space, where there’s a chef-worthy kitchen (deluxe Bertazzoni oven, integrated Miele dishwasher, expansive central bench with breakfast bar), postcard-perfect views of the city, and doors that slide away to seamlessly flow out to the deck, beautifully blurring the lines between inside and out.

Upstairs finds three bedrooms (two with city views) and immaculate bathroom with rainfall shower. Head down to the lower ground floor and discover a marble bathroom and a retreat fitted out with a bar. Step outside to an expansive covered patio, standalone studio/workshop, generous lawn and divine solar-heated salt swimming pool. Further highlights include home office/fifth bedroom, serene central bathroom (double sinks, bath, rainfall shower), downstairs laundry, ducted heating/cooling, solar panelling.

Sitting in walking distance from all the retail, restaurants, supermarkets and cinemas of Camberwell Junction, a brilliant lifestyle beckons. A host of parklands are an easy stroll away, and easy access onto the M1, trams stopping near your door, and close proximity to Gardiner train station makes commuting a breeze.
