3 Gillies Street Hampton

Rise above it all with highset period beauty, a blue-chip address and high-impact great-value land. Set on the high side of this much-desired address, this enchanting three bedroom, three bathroom home is high on presence and big on versatility with a gracious gasfire-warmed formal lounge, sun-filled family living opening north to a paved rear yard and a library-fitted home-office sized to double as a quiet sitting-room.

With a choice of main bedroom in a traditional ground-floor master-suite (with ensuite-access and walk-in-robe) and a spectacular full-floor master-level (with bathroom and storage), there’s more flexible accommodation in a French-doored dining room perfect as third bedroom.

.

Extending above its beautiful Edwardian origins in high-gabled style, the home is richly period detailed with lofty 3m-plus ground-floor ceilings (rising to 5m up above), a beautiful bow-bay window and lavish leadlight (including a treetop feature window). There’s a wealth of contemporary comfort too - with a quality stainless-steel appliance kitchen, hydronic heating plus reverse-cycle air-conditioners, plantation shutters and outstanding storage (in robes, roof-storage, and library and media units). There’s even excellent energy efficiency with a 5kW solar system and plentiful parking including a secure garage.

Best of all, there’s this prized central Hampton address just three blocks to Hampton St and the station, a walk to the bay and in reach of all the Hampton and Brighton schools. Surrounded by some of the area’s finest new, period and period-inspired homes, this is period beauty for today with potential to reach all-new heights tomorrow!
