Sitting pretty as a picture beyond a white picket fence for close to a century and a half, 'Zillah' is a Victorian home that has been beautifully reimagined for a luxuriously modern lifestyle.
Welcomed by a tessellated tile verandah, the home opens to a bright and roomy interior framed by towering ceilings and richly coloured Baltic floors. The charm of its youth is expressed through colourful leadlights, ceiling roses, and cast-iron fireplaces, while a contemporary palette and a premium array of fixtures add modern function and finesse.
The central lounge room is a soothing space to relax by day, while gathering guests around a gas-converted fireplace by night. The dining room sits adjacent for seamless entertaining, leading to a gourmet provincial-styled kitchen. A wide Falcon stove easily caters to crowds, aided by dual dish-drawers and plenty of storage including a pantry.
Outside, a large deck indulges alfresco celebrations beneath the northern sun, overlooking an expansive lawn where kids and pets can play. Here, a private gate offers direct access to the scenic Anniversary Trail and Boroondara Park.
Each bedroom is generously sized for private retreat and equipped with fitted robes, matched by a luxe bathroom with a claw-foot bathtub and a European laundry.
Zoned for Camberwell High School and Canterbury Girls' Secondary College, this coveted address is also surrounded by Melbourne's leading private schools. East Camberwell and Camberwell train stations and city-bound trams are all a leisurely stroll away, while Camberwell Junction's vibrant shopping and dining, the charming boutiques of Maling Village, and the Monash Freeway for swift city or coastal escapes are just minutes from home.
