865 Hampton Street, Brighton, Vic 3186

Rich in classic California Bungalow charm and character, this single level Brighton home on a 603 sqm approx. beachside block between Bay Street and Church Street, offers inspiring potential to live and enjoy now while considering dream home renovation, or redevelopment (STCA). 

The home’s picture perfect façade, features a portico entry verandah and box bay windows, while a long driveway offers off street parking and there is an undercover carport behind secure gates. The traditional two bedroom floorplan will delight with its spacious light filled living and entertaining spaces and private rear deck and garden that enjoys plenty of northerly sun. Original Baltic pine flooring extends throughout the long central hallway with soaring ceilings, and the freshly painted interiors are light filled and inviting. The bedrooms both have built in robes, with the main bedroom positioned at the front with garden outlooks. The gleaming renovated bathroom has a built in spa bath, a walk in shower, and a heated towel rail, while the laundry/powder room, off the well equipped and spacious central kitchen offers further amenity. 

The flowing, open living spaces include formal living and dining, with a traditional ornate fireplace, and informal family/meals area with access to the rear alfresco entertaining deck, and expansive, landscaped back yard, complete with established citrus trees. Additional features include ducted central heating and split system heating/cooling, doubled glazed windows throughout, automated security shutters on windows, rooftop solar panels which vastly reduce power bills, a large garden/storage shed, and a rotary clothesline. 

Offering flexibility and potential behind a very pretty facade, with renovation opportunities to extend the footprint or go up a second level, or build new (STCA), the lifestyle location is in walking distance to Bay Street, Church Street, Dendy Village and Brighton beach. With the William Street Reserve and Brighton Primary School around the corner, there is also a choice of leading private schools nearby including St Leonard’s College, Haileybury College, Brighton Grammar and Firbank Grammar.
