Superbly illustrating how period homes can accommodate contemporary lifestyles and the needs of a growing family, this simply stunning Federation era residence combines all the original hallmarks of its 1918 origins with a modern architect designed renovation and extension at the rear. Elegant leadlight windows, a tessellated tiled porch, ornate plaster ceilings and timber floors pay homage to the past while a bright open plan living area harnesses northerly light, beautiful crossflow and a seamless extension onto the deck and utterly private backyard. Now accommodating formal and casual living spaces, four bedrooms and a sumptuous family bathroom, the island kitchen is a natural hub for day-to-day family life. Complete with sleek cabinetry, stone benches and Miele appliances, its orientation gives a clear line of sight to the deck and backyard, where alfresco entertaining can be enjoyed as kids play on the lawn, and the magnificent mango tree promises a good yield. With the cosmopolitan cafes and shopping of Beaumont Street just 200m away, Hamilton Public School and Learmonth Park an easy stroll from home and the city and beaches less than 10-minutes by car, the lifestyle benefits of this architect's own home are easily and instantly recognised.
