16 Myrtle Road, Hampton, Vic 3188

See the light, love the location, find exceptional family accommodation within steps of the park and a stroll of the strip. A rare find on this prized period streetscape, this substantial four bedroom, 2.5 bathroom home unfolds in breathtaking contemporary style with wide walls of windows, vast vaulted ceilings, and the perfect plan for today’s family living.

Cleverly zoned with parents in a quiet master-domain opening to a private front garden, and kids in their own wing of king-size bedrooms (each with room to study or retreat), this family wise design provides places for everyone to come together - with voluminous lounge-dining opening to the broad lawns and bluestone paving of a sun-filled central garden, and the towering family zone with a soaring vaulted ceiling extending out to the skylit al fresco zone.

Designed to entertain with a butler’s pantry, 900mm range and Smeg dishwasher for the state-of-the-art kitchen, there’s a roaring open-fireplace for the formal lounge to enhance quiet times and a wall of bi-folds from family to al fresco zones to blur the boundaries between inside and out.

Appointed with an exceptional appreciation for quality and design with solid parquetry floors flowing through living and traffic zones, stone benchtops and automated-blinds, this outstanding home has fully-tiled bathrooms including a super-sized spa-ensuite with roof-window skylight...and great storage with a true attic in addition to built-in and walk-in robes.

With airy ceiling fans (even for the loftiest of ceilings) and zoned ducted cooling, this centrally heated and alarmed home has all the contemporary comforts too – from a pull-down bed and smart storage for the fourth bedroom, to a high-specification watering system with 6900L water-storage for the lush landscape, to four carspaces including an auto-garage for the family fleet!

Even this period-perfect location has the perfect family fit with Thomas St Park at one end of the street, Hampton Community Kindergarten at the other, the shopping strip and station within 750m, the beach a little further on. All the schools are in easy reach too; with the South Rd Colleges (Haileybury and St Leonard’s ) within a walk, the central Brighton grammars just two stops down the line, and Sandringham Primary School in Zone.
