A beautiful piece of Ascot's architectural history, 'Hampton Wick' is a home of extraordinary character, where timeless Tudor design meets the comfort and sophistication of modern family living.
Designed in 1932 by renowned architect E.P. Trewern, whose distinctive work helped shape some of Brisbane's most admired residences, this magnificent home occupies an elevated 810sqm allotment, capturing cooling bay breezes and picturesque outlooks in one of Ascot's most prestigious streets.
From its charming arched doorways and textured roughcast walls to its restored iron casement windows and rich timber detailing, the home's character has been beautifully preserved. The formal lounge is particularly captivating, with soaring exposed timber beams, an original fireplace and traditional windows creating a warm and inviting setting.
Thoughtfully updated for contemporary living, the home reveals a stunning Wyer + Craw kitchen, beautifully appointed with a generous central island and premium appliances. Filled with natural light, this space connects effortlessly with the open-plan living and dining areas, where bifold doors open to an alfresco entertaining deck overlooking the heated swimming pool.
Across three levels, the residence offers exceptional flexibility for family living, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms, a library and multiple spaces to entertain, work or retreat. The master suite features a walk-in wardrobe and private ensuite, while an upper-level retreat and ground-floor rumpus provide additional room for the family to spread out.
Adding to the home's fascinating history is the original waiting room and doctor's office of its first owners, Dr and Mrs Graham Sutton, now offering a versatile multipurpose space. A separate formal home office provides a peaceful setting to work, complete with French doors and a Juliet balcony overlooking the front gardens.
Entertaining is equally impressive, with an elegant formal dining room setting the scene for memorable evenings, complemented by a remarkable 1,200-bottle wine cellar and dedicated tasting room.
Beyond its architectural beauty, 'Hampton Wick' enjoys an exceptional Ascot lifestyle. Positioned along a beautiful tree-lined street, the residence is moments from the cafés and restaurants of Racecourse Road, the green open spaces of Oriel Park and some of Brisbane's most respected schools. With the CBD and Brisbane Airport both within easy reach, the location offers outstanding convenience.
Rich in history, generous in scale and beautifully suited to modern living, 'Hampton Wick' is a residence to be enjoyed and appreciated for generations to come.
