SOLD By Emma Orchard of C&CO Real Estate
Set on a generous 723sqm block in one of Hamilton Hill's most established coastal pockets, 12 Hamilton Road offers a rare chance to secure an untouched 1950s double-brick home preserved in remarkably original condition. This three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence carries all the hallmarks of its era - decorative ceilings, arched entryways, and classic period detailing that's becoming increasingly hard to find.
The formal lounge is warm and welcoming, anchored by an Art Deco mantle and a beautiful arched window overlooking the established front garden. Textured walls and ceiling embellishments add to the authenticity of the room - the true heart of the home. The elevated front bedroom is exceptionally large, enjoying great natural light, a ceiling fan, roller shutter and classic mid-century detailing.
At the centre of the home sits the oversized original kitchen, a genuine retro time capsule with curved cabinetry, yellow-glass accents, marble-look vinyl benchtops and a gas cooktop with rangehood. With more than enough room to add an island bench, it flows directly into the bright, north-facing dining area. Evaporative air-conditioning, ceiling fans and a gas bayonet provide comfort throughout the home.
The two additional bedrooms are also generous in size, each with large windows and ceiling fans. The central bathroom includes a shower-over-bath and internal WC. The second bathroom sits off the expansive laundry, which also includes a standalone shower and offers strong potential for conversion into a fourth bedroom or studio.
Outdoors, the home continues its nostalgic charm. A grapevine-covered patio and brick pizza oven create an inviting entertaining zone, complemented by an external WC. The long driveway accommodates a boat, caravan or multiple vehicles, leading to a substantial double garage/workshop with roller doors, workspace and a built-in sink. Below the home, a sizeable cellar offers excellent storage for wine or long-term supplies.
The backyard is primed for its next chapter, offering a lawn area, reticulated garden beds and a productive fig tree - a classic family garden ready to be enjoyed again.
Freshly painted throughout and in strong, sound original condition, this solid 1950s home is an authentic slice of Hamilton Hill history - ready to renovate, extend or simply settle in and enjoy.
