49 Charming StreetHampton East

Bayside’s biggest best field of dreams comes with a classic brick beauty, Activity Centre zoning (ACZ1), and a much-loved address. Combining family-sized cream brick charm with flexible future-forward land, this approx 725 sqm property is ready to step out of the past and into the future. Less than 10 doors from the multi-million-dollar homes sold on ‘The Block’. See the family value in this polished three bedroom home and appreciate a gracious gasfire-warmed lounge, spacious separate dining and a newly-floored gas-appointed eat-in kitchen. Featuring a well-positioned vintage bathroom, and separate WC beyond a vast and versatile laundry, this super-solid home offers an exceptional base for further extension with rich never-painted timberwork (including beautiful sash-windows and pretty picture rails), solid hardwood floors and high corniced ceilings...even a few retro light fittings still in place. With a warming gas fireplace plus robes for each bedroom, there’s plenty of comfort for today and endless scope to extend past an existing garage while still retaining a big old-fashioned dream backyard tomorrow. Alternatively, extend the value in this Bayside block and take inspiration from the neighbours with an additional home to the rear...or explore the option of multiple dwellings allowed under rewarding Activity Centre zoning (Subject to Council Approval). Whatever the plan, this instantly recognisable address is ready to reward with an easy two block walk to a major retail, rail, and restaurant hub, and a quick trip up and down the line to Southland, Monash University Caulfield and the CBD. Within easy reach of all of that Bayside has to offer, there are the South Rd Colleges (Haileybury and St Leonard's), just down the road, and Hampton’s beachside latte strip and blue-chip Brighton's famous beaches and cafe society within minutes.
