27 Munro Street
Hawthorn East

Brimming with period charm, this semi-detached Edwardian enjoys a privileged position in a quiet, neighbourly street. Offered for the first time in over 30 years, it presents a rare opportunity to secure a move-in-ready home with tremendous potential to add value through a second-level extension or a re-imagined rear renovation (STCA), following the trend of many neighbouring homes.

Featuring original Baltic pine floors, soaring ceilings with roses, and beautiful coloured leadlight windows, the home retains its rich Edwardian character. The unpainted red brick façade is a rare find, offering timeless street appeal with scope to enhance further.

Inside, three well-proportioned bedrooms, each with built-in robes, are serviced by a pristine bathroom. The front bedroom is a wonderful retreat bathed in afternoon light, perfect for reading or relaxing. The spacious kitchen with Smeg and Bosch appliances features timber benchtops and flows seamlessly into the living and dining area, where morning light floods the space through extensive windows. French doors open to a decked courtyard, ideal for morning coffees or entertaining throughout the day.

Adding to the home’s flexibility is a separate studio, perfect as a home office, creative space, or teen retreat. The bar window makes it ideal for entertaining, and with a simple adjustment, it can be converted into an additional bedroom or guest space.

Situated in a quiet, friendly street with minimal traffic, the home enjoys excellent parking options, including council permits for guests. The neighbourly community is welcoming, often socialising outdoors, adding to the area’s warmth and charm.

Perfectly positioned, the home is just 800 metres from Camberwell Junction, a vibrant hub of shopping, cafes, and the renowned Rivoli Cinema. Glenferrie Road, Auburn Village, and weekly markets are all within easy reach, while Fritsch Holzer Park is just at the end of the street, offering dog-friendly spaces, walking tracks, and newly upgraded sports facilities at Swinburne. Public transport options are excellent, with the tram moments away and the train station an easy 12-minute walk, ensuring a quick and effortless commute. CityLink access is also nearby, providing convenient connectivity to the CBD and beyond.

The home is zoned for Camberwell Primary and Auburn High (both French/English bilingual) and is within easy reach of top private schools, including Carey Grammar, Bialik, and MLC.

Whether enjoyed as-is or modernised to realise its full potential, this tightly held Edwardian gem delivers timeless character, immediate comfort, and outstanding future value. A rare opportunity in a highly sought-after pocket of Hawthorn East - don’t miss your chance to make it your own.
