Originally built in 1938, 74 Hotham Street retains the warmth, proportion and presence of its original cottage while delivering the scale, functionality and effortless indoor-outdoor living of an exceptional contemporary family home.The transformation, known as Earth, Wind + Fire, was designed by Linda Woods Design. The original cottage was carefully preserved, while the rear was completely reimagined to create a new kitchen, dining and living zone, children's retreat and private main suite. Clean architectural lines, natural materials and a grounded colour palette are layered with beautiful Art Nouveau-inspired feature tiles, warm timber detailing and carefully framed connections to the gardens. It is a home shaped around the way a family actually lives, rather than simply extended for the sake of adding space.At its heart is an extraordinary open-plan living environment, expansive enough to host a crowd yet warm enough for everyday family life. The kitchen anchors the space with an oversized stone island, bespoke cabinetry, leather pull handles, statement lighting and a timber-lined ceiling detail. A separate scullery keeps preparation and appliances out of sight, while the dining area, integrated study zone and generous living space are brought together around a striking feature fireplace. High ceilings, considered sightlines and walls of glazing give the room a remarkable sense of openness, with the garden present from almost every angle.This is a home designed for entertaining. Wide sliding doors dissolve the boundary between inside and out, extending the living space into a substantial all-season alfresco complete with an outdoor kitchen, adjustable louvred roof and multiple areas to dine, lounge and gather. Beyond it, an established garden wraps around a generous lawn and resort-style swimming pool, creating an environment where children can play, adults can entertain and long summer days can unfold without ever needing to leave home.Across the pool, the detached pool house adds another layer to the lifestyle. Currently arranged as a private sports lounge and man cave, it could just as easily become a studio, teenage retreat, gym or creative workspace. Surrounded by mature landscaping, feature lighting and a series of circular timber pathways, the entire backyard feels less like a suburban garden and more like a private resort.The accommodation has been equally well considered. Three spacious bedrooms remain within the original wing, complemented by beautiful timber floors, high ceilings and a character-filled family bathroom. The main suite is privately positioned at the rear, opening directly to its own garden terrace and featuring a generous walk-in robe and refined ensuite. A separate home theatre, integrated study, powder room, attic retreat and exceptional storage ensure the home adapts effortlessly through every stage of family life.Positioned close to the heart of Bayswater, this is a home that offers far more than impressive architecture. It offers space to grow, places to gather and a lifestyle centred around family, entertaining and connection. Homes of this quality are rarely created and even more rarely offered for sale.The Details That Matter- Originally built in 1938 and comprehensively reimagined for modern family living- Designed by Linda Woods Design as the Earth, Wind + Fire project- Four generous bedrooms and two beautifully appointed bathrooms- Private main suite with garden access, walk-in robe and ensuite- Expansive 6.9m x 9.5m open-plan kitchen, dining and living environment- Designer kitchen with oversized stone island, feature cabinetry and timber ceiling detail- Separate scullery, pantry and full laundry- Dedicated home theatre plus an integrated study zone- Additional attic retreat with access to extensive roof storage- High ceilings, original timber flooring and retained character detailing- Art Nouveau-inspired feature tiling throughout the bathrooms and wet areas- Statement fireplace with custom joinery and display shelving- Approximately 34sqm covered alfresco with outdoor kitchen and adjustable louvred roof- Landscaped gardens, generous lawn and established trees- Resort-style swimming pool with feature lighting and poolside relaxation areas- Detached 13sqm pool house, currently used as a private sports lounge and man cave- Ducted climate control, ceiling fans and solar panels- Secure carport, additional storage and excellent separation between living and sleeping zonesWhy You'll StayBecause this is not simply a beautiful renovation.
