88 Cleary Street, Hamilton NSW 2303

Open the gate to number 88 and just try and stop yourself from instantly falling in love with this beautiful c1905 brick home, its Federation facade calling to mind wistful reminiscences of a bygone era. Footsteps to Beaumont St, the location could not get any better.

While boasting all of the desirable features you would expect of the era (towering ceilings, wide kauri floorboards, transom windows, vintage coloured glass, and tessellated tile-fringed cast-iron fireplaces), this family-proportioned home also satisfies the needs of modern life with an elegant kitchen and bathroom renovation that pays homage to the home's traditional heritage and even further increases its appeal.

We begin with the colossal master bedroom, which includes a built-in robe and ample room for a pair of fireside chairs (affording a tranquil retreat from family life), as well as the modern-day comforts of air-conditioning and ceiling fan. Two other large bedrooms are featured, third with fireplace and double French doors leading out onto the lovely north-facing sunroom.

An open-plan kitchen and living room, flooded with north-facing light, forms the family heart of the home. With an ornate fireplace book-ended by beautiful built-in shelving, this room provides a warm, inviting space for children to hang out and play while the evening meal is being prepared in the tastefully renovated kitchen. A versatile u-shaped design, the kitchen features custom built cabinetry, black granite double sinks and huge corner pantry as well as a large breakfast bar, affording space aplenty for little helpers to assist with preparing meals, or shaping and decorating cookies.

The bathroom has also been stylishly renovated and includes a deep soaker tub with shower over and heritage style black tapware, along with charcoal grouting accentuating the softly rippled subway tiles.

Outside, a huge north-facing deck with grapevine-draped pergola offers the perfect sun-filled outdoor living area and delivers ample room for casual dining, lounging, and entertaining. Opposite, a sweet studio provides the ideal secluded maker's space, or alternatively serves as an all-weather children's playroom. The separate laundry can also be found tucked away in the customary spot off the back deck.

This home is located close enough to walk, yet far enough away from the beating heart of Hamilton's vibrant food and entertainment district, as well as being mere minutes from the greenery at Gregson Park. Kids will enjoy the short amble to school at Hamilton Public or Hunter School of the Performing Arts. And for weekend getaways, you can be at Broadmeadow station and on your way quicker than you can say “take me to Central”.
