The coffee is ever-flowing, the parks are green, there are prestigious schools and a strong sense of community pervades in Camberwell. Parking is another story, but nowhere’s perfect. Buzzing Burke Road is the suburb’s main artery for social and commercial purposes and offers countless boutique stores and a thriving café scene. The jewel in its crown is the beautiful Art Deco Rivoli Cinema, where locals catch the latest blockbusters and indie releases. And if high street fashion and homewares aren’t what you’re looking for – the weekly Camberwell Market is a treasure trove of rare finds that draws people from across the city. It comes as no surprise then that prosperous families and retirees are the norm in this safe, friendly neighbourhood’s leafy streets. Obtaining property here is quite a coup so houses tend to be passed down in families – once people are in Camberwell they don’t tend to be in a rush to move elsewhere. Ever.
