793 Hampton Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Step beyond this picket-fenced, bay-windowed, fretworked façade and step into the perfect period/family mix. Showcasing a beautifully integrated extension in gardens by Jack Merlo, this substantial up to four bedroom, two bathroom Edwardian retains every period detail in a family-wise floorplan.

Graced with elaborate pressed metal ceilings and beautiful mantled fireplaces, separate formal lounge and dining rooms reach out to the garden with curvaceous bow-bay leadlight windows , while family living/dining spilling out on two sides to a wraparound verandah before facing inward to a wall of media cabinetry wired with surround-sound. Living even steps further into the garden with an entertaining pavilion set behind glass fencing alongside the fully-tiled, solar-heated pool!

Zoned to fit a modern family, there's a rear master-wing opening wide to the lush poolside gardens, and a cleverly fitted home-office ready to double as a fourth bedroom. Beautifully appointed with a classic granite and Miele appliance kitchen, there's a fully-tiled stone-finished principal bathroom soaring tall to a skylit roofline, a luxurious spa for the master ensuite and robes for every bedroom. Prestige appointments include ducted heating and air-conditioning, alarm and mains-fitted BBQ, while two-car auto-garaging extends parking in drip-watered gardens.

Just 200 metres from Dendy Village with Church St.'s shopping and transport within a minute and a choice of the central Brighton and the South Rd schools within easy reach, this is period perfect family living.
