Masterfully reinvented, this Californian Bungalow harmoniously blends period integrity with contemporary design, presenting a confident street presence enhanced by sculpted hedging and custom fencing that provide privacy while maintaining the home's elegant composure.

The residence seamlessly integrates heritage and modern craftsmanship, creating a cohesive and architecturally enduring home. The facade is framed by layered planting, forming beautifully disciplined yet generous gardens at the front and rear. A veranda welcomes you with stained-glass double doors that open to interiors defined by proportion and understated luxury.

A central hallway draws the eye forward in an uninterrupted line. Soaring ceilings and panelled walls pay homage to the home's lineage, while solid timber floors add warmth and guide the transition toward the reimagined rear of the house.

On either side of the hall, the formal lounge and main suite retain their period elegance, each featuring leadlight bay windows and ceiling roses. The lounge is richly detailed, centered around a fireplace and framed by bespoke joinery. The main suite includes a window seat, a custom dressing room, and a twin-vanity ensuite with a deep bath and walk-in shower.

Further along the hall, practical living is discreetly accommodated with an additional robed bedroom, a dedicated study, and concealed storage, culminating in a glass-enclosed wine display that adds a touch of indulgence.

The architectural style shifts confidently beyond the hall. Polished concrete floors replace timber as full-height glazing invites the landscape into expansive living and dining areas anchored by a substantial fireplace wall. The kitchen is designed as both a centerpiece and a functional instrument, featuring a monolithic island, integrated bar, and a fully appointed butler’s pantry equipped with twin Miele ovens, an induction cooktop, an integrated dishwasher, and a dedicated Liebherr wine refrigerator.

Stacking sliding doors open completely to extend the living space outdoors, where polished concrete continues beneath a timber-lined pavilion punctuated with skylights and automated screening. Dual Ziegler & Brown barbecues are integrated into the architecture, complemented by a Polito wood-fired oven. Outside, a gas-heated saltwater pool and spa provide luxurious relaxation.

Upstairs, a substantial retreat offers separation and flexibility. Two additional bedrooms include built-in desks and storage; one is enhanced by a box bay window and private ensuite, while the other is served by a fully tiled bathroom.

Practical features are thoughtfully incorporated throughout the home, including a fully appointed laundry with chute, drying cupboard, and integrated ironing station, zoned climate control, heated bathroom floors, and plantation shutters. Sonos audio extends across the living and alfresco areas. Additional amenities include a ground-floor bathroom, security alarm, video intercom, keyless entry, and secure parking behind automated gates.

Located in a tightly held beachside pocket, the property is moments from prestigious schools such as Haileybury and St Leonard’s Colleges, St Mary’s Primary, and Hampton Primary, as well as Hampton Street, Hampton Station, and the foreshore.
