Hampton VIC 3188

A significant historical landmark prestigiously located just 200 metres from the beachfront, Kooringa is a breathtaking reflection of Edwardian craftsmanship and painstaking restoration, seamlessly blended with contemporary appointments, creating a truly unique and inspiring family home.

Peacefully set behind a delightful white picket fence and high cypress hedge, this eminent 5 bedroom 2 bathroom residence represents all the grace, grandeur, and character of a bygone era.

The marvellous faade with its return verandah reveals an ornate interior showcasing opulent high ceilings, glorious open fireplaces, and a wealth of period features.

A magnificent entrance hall adorned with leadlight door panels and crowned with soaring ceilings leads to a series of sumptuous rooms including an elegant sitting room / library with glorious front garden vistas, and a refined formal lounge and dining room.

At the heart of the home, a light-filled timber kitchen with breakfast bar and generous walk in pantry adjoins a meals area and leads to a superb glassed-in sunroom where French doors open to vine covered pergola and deep rear gardens.

Beautifully appointed accommodation is spread across both levels. On the ground floor two generous fitted bedrooms are serviced by a luxurious bathroom with marble-topped twin vanity, original claw-footed cast-iron bath, and stunning tessellated tiles. Plus a third bedroom at the rear of the home. The gorgeous master bedroom, at the front of the home, enjoys leafy vistas through a glorious bay window.

A timber staircase leads upstairs to the fourth bedroom plus retreat/fifth bedroom opening to private balconies through French doors, and sharing a light-filled spa bathroom. Both enjoy serene tree-top vistas; while the expansive sun-splashed attic bedroom offers seclusion and retreat away from it all.

Complemented by a study, separate laundry with WC, ducted heating, and off street parking behind auto gates accessed via rear laneway (with Council approved plans for double carport plus storage).

In this prized location, just minutes to the shops, cafes, restaurants, boutiques and station of Hampton Street, schools, and parklands.

Kooringa is a tightly-held property, home to just three families, and is now offered to a new family to be cherished and looked after, and to create a lifetime of new family memories. For more information about this Edwardian masterpiece contact Richard Slade or Michael Martin.
