16 Ruyton Street, Camberwell, Vic 3124

This turn-key home has been thoughtfully renovated creating a stunning blend of period and contemporary family living. A beautiful arbour and lychgate make an inviting entry to this charming home located on a corner block and opposite Camberwell’s popular Lynden Park. 

 After walking through the wide entrance hallway and two large bedrooms (main with an ensuite bathroom) the home opens into a sublime two-storey extension featuring an Italian Polyform kitchen, and generous open dining and living area. A separate library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves with an open fireplace adds to the home’s ambience.

The rear deck is perfect for entertaining with huge floor to ceiling glass sliding doors which disappear into the walls, seamlessly connecting the inside and the outside to one big space, with industrial-quality misters to keep guests cool on summer days and outdoor heaters for the cooler days.
A striking white helical staircase adds a gallery feel to this open space providing a perfect way to ascend to the parents’ retreat on the upper floor. Complete with generous master bedroom, study/home office and pristine ensuite, and floor to ceiling louvre windows overlooking a luscious garden – the vibe is very deliberately “resort and retreat”. 

All the fixtures and fittings are of the highest quality and brand, with Rogerseller tapware and floor to ceiling Italian tiles in both bathrooms, Italian stand-alone Ilve stove, integrated Miele dishwasher and integrated Liebherr fridge and solid Carri and original Baltic pine polished floorboards. 
There is also split system heating and cooling upstairs and down, the benefits of calm and clean hydronic heating throughout the home, 3.6 kw solar panels, solar hot water, ducted vacuuming on both levels, and integrated black electric blinds on the large glass doors leading to the back deck and in the upstairs parents’ retreat, and white plantation shutters in the two front bedrooms and library.

A separate studio with gliding Japanese-inspired glass doors completes the home, with imagination to use this space for a yoga studio, home office or teenage retreat. There is also an option to convert this space to a separate bedroom for additional family living. For green thumbs, an attractive back English-style glass house waits for tomato planting in spring, and the garden also features irrigation and 12,000 litre rain water storage.

With nothing to do but move in and enjoy the home and location near Camberwell’s most desired schools, parks and growing number of cafes and intimate local wine bars just a walk away. Zoned to Hartwell Primary School, Canterbury Girls & Camberwell High School.
