29 The Ridge, Canterbury, Vic 3126

Positioned on a wide, leafy flat corner allotment of approx. 780sqm in a peaceful Canterbury enclave, this c.1939 home presents an exceptional opportunity of both timeless appeal and future potential (STCA). Showcasing hallmark architectural charm and abundant natural light, the residence blends classic character with scope for renovation, reimagining or rebuilding your dream home, all just moments from leading schools including Camberwell Grammar, transport, and Highfield Park.

A graceful arched front terrace sets the tone, leading through double doors to a wide entry hall beneath soaring ceilings. Hydronic heating, air conditioning, and original period features add warmth and authenticity throughout. North-facing and filled with light, the formal living area features an elegant fireplace, deep window ledges, and French doors to the formal dining room – a generous, refined space enhanced by original architraves and ornate ceiling detail.
The primary suite is a true retreat, with beautiful, curved windows, shutters, walk-through robes, and a spacious ensuite. Additional bedrooms are equally generous, serviced by two further bathrooms, including one with a calming neutral palette and open shower. A separate home office or fourth bedroom offers tranquil garden views, while the inviting casual dining zone flows to a covered rear terrace shaded by vines – ideal for relaxed entertaining.

At the heart of the home, the open-plan kitchen is well-appointed with Miele appliances, a central island, walk-in pantry and glass display shelving, all oriented towards lush garden vistas.
Outside, the garden’s established greenery includes a paved courtyard, complemented by a double carport, tool shed and ample storage. A European laundry, multiple living zones and thoughtful built-ins enhance everyday functionality.

Held in a prized family-friendly neighbourhood with a lovely local feel, this is a rare and rewarding opportunity to secure a character-rich residence with timeless bones and boundless possibility.
