Positioned on an elevated, prized tree-lined street, this superb late-1950s/early-1960s block of eight one-bedroom apartments presents a compelling opportunity for investors, renovators or developers (STCA). Comfortably leased in its current condition, a straightforward refurbishment would enhance both capital growth and rental returns. Alternatively, the expansive 719sqm allotment—offering the potential for sweeping city views from a third storey—provides an exceptional setting for a luxurious new family residence or boutique redevelopment, free from heritage overlay restrictions.

The building showcases a range of original quality features, including parquetry timber floors, terrazzo bathroom flooring, pedestal basins and solid pressed brick construction on a concrete slab. Four ground-floor apartments each comprise a generous living area, separate functional kitchen, double bedroom with built-in robes and a bathroom, all opening to shared front or rear gardens. The four upper-level apartments mirror the same floorplan and extend to private balconies. Additional amenities include a communal laundry and four unallocated off-street car spaces.

Ideally located moments from Camberwell Junction, Riversdale and Burke Road trams, Camberwell Station, prestigious schools and Anderson Park, this is an exciting and increasingly rare opportunity in one of the area’s most tightly held and desirable pockets.
