17 Avondale Street

Hampton VIC 3188

The spectacular renovation of this first-class Californian Bungalow has created a dream home of unparalleled style in a prized, heritage locale between Hampton Street, elite schools and Melbourne's Port Phillip Bay. Meticulously presented spaces unfold beyond its restored 1920s facade to deliver the complete family package set against a sundrenched, garden aspect.

Original rooms retain their high decorative ceilings and grand proportions, with elegant formal lounge and dining flaunting a roaring open fireplace, custom cabinetry and boxed, leadlight windows. A highly desirable, ground level master suite reflects the same level of period detail, graced with a panelled feature wall and ornate ceilings as well as a dual vanity, en suite and dressing area lined with built-in robes.

A private home office precedes a magnificent family domain with a leafy backdrop basking in westerly sun. Beautifully detailed with a stunning window seat, open fireplace, surround sound and bi-folds to al fresco dining, this voluminous indoor-outdoor space is the heart of the home. An impeccably appointed kitchen complements this area with an entertainer's island, stone benches, premium appliances (Bosch double ovens and 5 burner gas hob) and a Butler's style, walk-in pantry.

Generously accommodating and brilliantly zoned, upstairs showcases a spacious children's lounge or rumpus accompanied by three further, queen-sized bedrooms fitted with built-in robes, ceiling fans and gorgeous boxed windows. A family bathroom offers a stone vanity and deep bath, and a separate powder room.

Timeless period luxury is enhanced by modern comforts including a guest powder room, laundry, extensive storage throughout, ducted heating/cooling, security alarm, workshop, mains gas for BBQ, watering system and gated carport parking. Walk to shops, cafes, eateries, Hampton station, Hampton's popular swimming beach and a selection of the area's best schools including St Mary's Primary, Hampton Primary, St Leonard's and Haileybury.
