Hampton VIC 3188

The First Born of David
Immerse yourself in history and bring the first house in David Street, once surrounded by paddocks and grazing sheep, into the future! This double fronted early Edwardian is steeped in history and cared for by just one family since built, back in the early 1900's. On a large block of approx. 661sqm/7,125sqft with wide frontage spanning 17 metres across and a beautiful, big north facing backyard - all inclusive of the traditional lemon tree!
As you walk through the original front door, you are welcomed by a long, wide entrance hallway - apparently great for carpet bowls! The large master bedroom to the left has an open fire place with original timber mantlepiece. There is another double bedroom to the right, followed by a bathroom, a smaller bedroom, a sunroom and outhouses (laundry & 2nd WC). The lounge room is lined in rich, deep coloured timber panelling, complementing the mantlepiece that surrounds another fireplace. Through to the big old kitchen with the original woodfired 'Bates & Co. Melbourne' stove that warmed the house and the tummies of many.
