An icon of Claudelands, where timeless 1930s character meets considered modern living. Homes of this calibre are tightly held and rarely offered, particularly in one of Hamilton's most sought-after central locations. Rich in history, beautifully enhanced and impossible to replicate, this is a residence that commands your attention from the very first glance.
Securely positioned behind automatic arched gates, the striking street presence immediately sets the tone for what's to come. Step inside and you're welcomed by soaring stud heights, wide hallways and the unmistakable warmth that only a true character home can provide.
Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the home offers two distinct living spaces. One is a cosy retreat for movie nights or relaxing with a glass of red, while the expansive open-plan living area centres around a stunning chef's kitchen. Finished with an oversized island, commercial-style stainless-steel benchtops, a large gas cooktop, feature ceiling-mounted rangehood and a generous family-sized oven, it's a space where timeless character and contemporary functionality exist in perfect harmony. Carefully selected feature tiling pays homage to the home's heritage while adding another layer of personality.
Accommodation comprises three generous, light-filled bedrooms, serviced by a beautifully appointed family bathroom featuring a walk-in tiled shower and finishes that remain sympathetic to the home's era. Adding even more value, the current owners have council-approved plans available to create a luxurious master suite complete with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, offering exciting potential for the next owners.
Outside, the home takes on an entirely different atmosphere. Elevated, private and framed by established trees, the north-facing entertaining area feels more like a boutique retreat than a suburban backyard. Complete with a louvred roof, mood lighting and spa pool, it's a space designed to be enjoyed year-round, whether entertaining friends or unwinding at the end of the day.
Beyond its undeniable beauty, this home is exceptionally practical. A Tesla solar system comprising 16 panels and battery storage means the current owners rarely receive a power bill and regularly sell excess energy back to the grid. A separate cabin, currently configured as a fully equipped gym, offers outstanding flexibility and is available to remain with the property by negotiation.
Attic storage, a comprehensive security system with cameras, automated irrigation, a separate double garage and meticulous attention to detail throughout further elevate an already remarkable offering.
Homes like this are remembered long after you've left them. Rich in character, thoughtfully modernised and positioned in one of Hamilton's tightly held neighbourhoods, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to secure a truly iconic Claudelands address.
