8 Ratho Avenue, BRIGHTON EAST VIC 3187

Discover the allure of this three-bedroom Art Deco haven, where timeless elegance meets modern sophistication in a sunlit al fresco setting. Situated on the edge of Hampton Street’s vibrant village of shops, cafes, and gourmet food stores, near leading schools, transport, and the beach, this is an ideal location for Bayside living. Past high security fencing and ample driveway parking, the classic 1930s brick facade opens to stylish interiors, highlighted by high decorative ceilings in the entrance hall and one of two accommodation zones. Two large bedrooms feature new wool carpet, ceiling fans, and built-in robes, and the main bathroom is finished in natural Seagrass limestone with tiled niches and a designer bathtub. A separate living room, warmed by an Ultimate wood fire heater, provides a spacious retreat, while the newly completed kitchen impresses with stretches of Thunder White granite, a 900mm Westinghouse oven, Abey Gessi Emporio mixer tap, and an illuminating skylight. The second living and dining space flows to a vast covered outdoor area with a natural gas BBQ point, perfect for al fresco gatherings in the afternoon sun. Peacefully positioned at the rear, the main bedroom is a private sanctuary, with a deck overlooking deep, established gardens and a water feature, plus ample built-in storage and a limestone-tiled en suite. Additional highlights include a stone-finished laundry with a third WC, ducted heating, double-glazing throughout, Queensland Spotted Gum flooring, extensive storage, Sunset Switch night-lighting, video intercom, and surveillance security. Set on the sunlit western side of two solid brick semis, this home also offers a 2000L water tank, provision for garden lighting, and auto-gated parking. With St Leonard’s, Haileybury, Were Street’s independent supermarket, Hampton and Brighton Beach stations, the Bay Trail, and Bayside beaches all nearby, it’s ideal for single-level seekers looking for space and timeless grace.
