EOI Closing Tues. 31st March at 4:00pm
Masterfully reinvented, this Californian Bungalow reconciles period integrity with contemporary clarity, presenting an assured street presence with sculpted hedging and custom fencing that establish privacy without diminishing its composure.
Heritage and modern craftsmanship are not contrasted here; they are seamlessly interwoven, forming a residence of cohesion, clarity and enduring architectural conviction.
Layered planting frames the facade with restraint, forming gardens - front and rear - of quiet, undeniable beauty, disciplined yet generous in scale. A veranda introduces stained-glass double doors opening to interiors defined by proportion and understated luxury.
A central hall draws the eye forward in one uninterrupted line. Soaring ceilings and panelled walls honour the home’s lineage, while solid timber floors provide warmth, guiding the transition toward the reimagined rear.
To either side, the formal lounge and main suite retain their period poise, each defined by leadlight bay windows and ceiling roses. The lounge is richly detailed, centred on a fireplace and framed by tailored joinery, while the main suite incorporates a window seat, bespoke dressing room and a twin-vanity ensuite with deep bath and walk-in shower.
Progressing along the hall, everyday function is absorbed discreetly - an additional robed bedroom, dedicated study and concealed storage preceding a glass-enclosed wine display, introducing a more indulgent note.
Beyond, the architecture shifts with conviction. Polished concrete replaces timber as full-height glazing draws the landscape into expansive living and dining zones anchored by a substantial fireplace wall. The kitchen is conceived as a centrepiece and instrument: a monolithic island, integrated bar and fully appointed butler’s pantry supported by twin Miele ovens, induction cooktop, integrated dishwasher and dedicated Liebherr wine refrigeration.
Stacking sliders withdraw completely, extending the living domain outward as polished concrete continues beneath a timber-lined pavilion punctuated with skylights and automated screening. Dual Ziegler & Brown barbecues embed entertaining within the architecture itself, while a Polito wood-fired oven, gas-heated saltwater pool and spa sit beyond.
Upstairs, a substantial retreat provides separation and flexibility. Two further bedrooms incorporate built-in desks and storage, one enhanced by a box bay window and private ensuite, while the second is served by a fully tiled bathroom.
Practicality is delivered with equal discipline: a fully appointed laundry with chute, drying cupboard and integrated ironing station, zoned climate control, heated bathroom floors and plantation shutters throughout. Sonos audio extends across living and al fresco, while a ground-floor bathroom, security alarm, video intercom, keyless entry and secure parking behind automated gates complete the home.
Positioned within a tightly held beachside pocket, moments from excellent schools including Haileybury and St Leonard’s Colleges, St Mary’s Primary and Hampton Primary, as well as Hampton Street, Hampton Station and the foreshore.
