7 Sargood Street, Hampton

Sharing the leafy calm and family atmosphere that sees its surrounds so loved, this extended c1940s five-bedroom gem promises the utmost function and flexibility, positioned just metres from the coffee, cuisine, boutiques, and bar scene of ever-adored Hampton Street. With thriving trees and diverse architecture central to the street’s appeal, the home itself offers families room to expand as the years go on, unfolding over two superb storeys. Hardwood floors and ornate cornices offer a nod to period roots, while entwined front office and sitting areas join a fitted second study in heightening real-world usability. An accomplished entertainer, open living and dining zones flank a kitchen boasting upscale Neff and Asko appliances, while sliding doors transform the space into a warm-weather haven. A broad deck soaks in sun from northern and western sides, with a substantial backyard’s lush foliage a brilliant backdrop for blue-sky barbecues. With its own ensuite and walk-in robe, a magnificent upstairs master is accompanied by three large, second-storey kids’ rooms, a modern central bathroom, and scenic eastern balcony, while a robe-lined fifth bedroom/lower bathroom pairing proves ideal for visiting family. Other highlights include an additional, sky-lit bathroom servicing entertaining areas, dual basins and a bathtub to both upstairs bathrooms, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, split-system heating/cooling, a full-size laundry, backyard shed, quiet side deck, driveway space for two cars comfortably, and zoning for acclaimed Hampton Primary/Sandringham College. Without question one of Melbourne’s most sought-after family locales, it’s just steps to scattered cafés, Hampton Station, sporting fields, the local athletics track, and peaceful expanses of Thomas Street South, WL Simpson, Boss James, Castlefield, and RJ Sillitoe Reserves, with lauded Sand belt golf courses, esteemed Haileybury and St Leonard’s Colleges, and the pristine sands of Hampton Beach mere moments away.
