5/838 Hampton Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Revel in this rare first floor retro residence in boutique block of only 5, this residence was masterfully built to celebrate the highly sought style of yesteryear. Designed at a time when a more natural freeform style was the focus, an impressively large living room is complemented by a half vault ceiling allowing an abundance of light, while a separate living/dining room features an open fireplace adding to the allure. Surrounded by enormous trees, a north facing balcony & separate private courtyard lends a true country vibe which also continues throughout. The original kitchen has generous storage, a freestanding oven & retro tiling continuing the theme & matching the style. Two bedrooms are enhanced by built-in wardrobes & a classic 70’s bathroom with a shower-over-bath & separate toilet, creating an undoubtedly extraordinary opportunity to secure a one-of-a-kind, super solid residence with a well-designed floorplan & original features throughout. Keep the 70’s alive or renovate to today’s modern style, the choice is yours. With exposed brick, a gas heater & a car space, this home corners quiet treelined Grant Street which is only a short picturesque walk to Bay Street shopping, parks, schools & even Church Street.
