36 Villeroy Street
Hampton

Triumphing the perfect balance between beauty and functionality, with an impressively scaled and highly considered floorplan designed to foster family harmony and evoke effortless entertaining, this sanctuary-like four-bedroom, three-bathroom Hampton home has recently undergone a designer-led transformation and will captivate with its showstopping kitchen and open-plan living space with direct connectivity to a resort-style alfresco zone and swimming pool.

Positioned in the heart of Hampton’s esteemed Castlefield Estate heritage precinct, just moments to Hampton Street shops, station and the beach, the single-level weatherboard home was custom designed and built around 16 years ago to harmonise with the traditional neighbourhood streetscape. Distinguished by its side-by-side double carport, and an automated driveway gate, the character-rich home is set behind established landscaped gardens and a lush lawn area.

Recently renovated by multi award-winning GIA Designers and Builders, the home’s sublime aesthetic has been elevated to next level with a complete reimagining of the master ensuite, the kitchen, and combined butler’s pantry/laundry. American Oak flooring flows through the central hallway and main living areas, while pure wool loop pile carpet adorns the four bedrooms and the front formal living room. Elegantly arched doorways, with custom fluted glass doors, allow for spaces to be closed for intimacy or opened for flow, creating a parental retreat in the front section where you’ll find the generously proportioned main bedroom with a wall of custom built-in robes, and the luxe ensuite with glazed porcelain tiles, twin stone vanities, a free-standing deep soaker tub and walk-in dual head rain shower behind a fluted glass screen. The breathtakingly bespoke stone-topped kitchen celebrates tactile organic textures and a restrained nature-inspired palette and features a custom micro-cement rounded island/diner, which was handcrafted in-situ along with a gloriously curved bulkhead above the travertine splashback. A designer pendant, travertine sconce, and two large-format skylights provide gorgeous illumination while the high-end appliances include a Smeg oven and induction cooktop, an integrated Miele dishwasher and an integrated Fisher & Paykel French door fridge/freezer. Sleek custom cabinetry incorporates a built-in stone-topped wet bar with sensor lighting, and the amenity is further enhanced with a combination butler’s pantry/laundry, which is equally beautifully appointed with hand-cut travertine tiles and stone benchtops, and highly considered for functionality with external access, hamper drawers, and pull-out basket shelves underneath the elevated appliances.

The expansive living area is anchored with a gas log fire heater and has pool-compliant glass sliding doors that open directly to the pool deck, with automated awning, allowing for all-season usage. The lagoon-like original swimming pool and surrounds have been fully renovated and resurfaced and enhanced with solar heating and a cute cabana. There is also a fenced off lawn area, perfect for kids or pets to play.

There are a further three generously sized and beautifully fitted bedrooms and two well-appointed bathrooms in the home’s east wing including a large pool-view room with shower ensuite. Additional features include a study/home office, ducted heating, evaporative cooling, water tank, and a single garage/storage space which could be used as a gym or studio.

Superbly positioned in the heart of Hampton’s revered heritage precinct, opposite the grounds of Haileybury College and a short walk to St. Leonard’s College and Hampton Primary School, with Hampton Street’s boutiques, restaurants, and cafes and station, as well as Castlefield Reserve and the sandy shores of Hampton Beach.
