Cream Brick Classic at a Tightly Held Address

A rare offering on this tightly held streetscape of substantial mid-century homes, this cream brick three bedroom plus study, dual zone home looks to the future in approx 655sqm grounds. Extending beyond gracious formal living and dining with a spacious family zone, this inviting home stars an entertainers’ kitchen with a central bench to serve the chef and a utility pantry to conceal the clutter. Zoned for family harmony with large fan-cooled bedrooms in a quiet wing, this spacious home has a bright study alongside the kitchen; perfect for working at home or easily supervising homework. Ready to enjoy right now with a quality bathroom (with separate WC) and a large laundry, the home is graced with vintage detail throughout. Featuring a striking 1960s stone mantle (easily converted to gas) for formal living, this mid-century classic features high corniced ceilings and catches wide garden views through corner windows. Secured by Smartphone 4 camera CCTV, an alarm, and driveway parking plus a brick garage, this reverse-cycle air-conditioned home stretches deep along a sunny north side aspect in old orchard gardens with 3000 litres of water tanks. With an established landscape to welcome the birds, these irrigated grounds provide all season entertaining in a covered al fresco area, tall deciduous trees for winter sun and summer shade, and broad lawns front and rear for kids to play. At home in the heart of Hampton East’s park-precinct, this cream brick beauty is just 250m to the lake at Basterfield Park, a quick hit to the baseball fields at Oliver Reserve, and less than 10 minutes’ walk to the closest station. A few blocks to a choice primary school in the Sandringham Secondary College Zone, there are the South Rd colleges (Haileybury and St Leonard’s) within minutes, and the best of Bayside lifestyle in reach.
