Rich in character, brimming with warmth and surrounded by established gardens, this captivating three-bedroom residence has an appeal that is immediately felt. Original timber detailing lends texture and personality to the interiors, while two distinct living areas, a deep rear garden and exceptionally spacious studio offer an alluring combination of comfort, space and possibility.
A sweeping driveway winds past lush greenery and sculptural foliage towards the home's charming facade, crowned by a terracotta-tiled roof. Inside, handsome timber doors, decorative cornices and picture rails celebrate its traditional origins, their intricate detailing providing a striking complement to the light, neutral aesthetic.
Northern sunshine illuminates the front lounge, where an open fireplace promises cosy winter evenings and an ornamental pendant light adds a delightful vintage flourish. A large window frames the outlook, while a study nook provides a quiet place to work. Two sets of glazed doors allow the room to be closed off for privacy, creating an intimate retreat away from the activity of family life.
A beautiful interplay of soft sage-green cabinetry and pale stone gives the kitchen its fresh contemporary appeal, with an extensive breakfast bar providing an attractive centrepiece. Asko appliances complete the arrangement, perfectly suited to everyday cooking and casual meals.
A subtle change in level leads to the living and dining area, where a timber-lined ceiling creates a distinctive backdrop to relaxed gatherings. Sliding glass doors open to a covered terrace overlooking an expansive sweep of lawn edged by mature trees and lush plantings. The remarkable depth affords children and pets room to roam, families space to entertain and gardeners a glorious canvas to enjoy.
Adding another dimension to the property is a substantial, separately accessed studio, where an impressive wall of glass captures views across the garden. Its scale invites a wealth of possibilities, from a dedicated home office or an inspiring setting for a home-based business to the ultimate teenagers' retreat, with the potential to create independent accommodation should the desire arise.
Of the three bedrooms, the main enjoys northern sunshine and picturesque front garden outlooks, as well as built-in robes. A beautifully appointed family bathroom introduces understated elegance, its soft, harmonious finishes complementing the home's original features.
Ducted heating, split-system air conditioning, a separate laundry, powder room and single garage add everyday practicality, with abundant off-street parking behind secure gates.
Perfectly placed for an enviable lifestyle, the home is close to parklands, bus services and Brighton Golf Course, with Hampton Street's shops, cafes, restaurants and station, the beach and excellent schools, including Hampton Primary, Haileybury College and St Leonard's College, all within easy reach.
