38 Hill Street, HAWTHORN VIC 3122

Leafy landscaped garden on a level allotment with excellent corner access creates a picturesque presence for this attractive freestanding residence where a beautiful tuckpointed Hawthorn brick façade with extra-wide frontage precedes a brilliantly renovated interior that’s perfectly flexible and filled with light. Classical character mixed with contemporary quality launches a four bedroom or three and study layout that highlights a stylish upstairs parents’ retreat and separate living areas. An exceptionally broad arched hallway on stunning solid blackbutt floorboards provides an impressive introduction to three sizable ground-floor bedrooms where two feature customised built-in robes and a third or study includes a fitted desk. A spacious living room with an open fireplace and storage provides a warm and inviting space for quiet relaxation that flows into an architect-designed rear extension launched by a powder room, laundry and an outstanding central family bathroom. A soaring-ceiling main bedroom retreat with a day-bed, built-in robes and a luxurious double-shower ensuite is privately and quietly situated above an open-plan living and dining area that with three-sided glazing offers an enticing connection to surrounding garden. Integrating a premium Ilve/Miele-appointed gourmet kitchen and vertical light-court garden, double-glazed bifold doors and a retractable screen open to a lush courtyard setting with an alfresco terrace for peaceful entertaining. Other attributes include hydronic heating, split-system air-conditioner, ceiling fans, heated towel rails, plantation shutters, attic ladder storage, rainwater tank, automated irrigation as well as front and side gate access.
