Hidden away from the world on a gated rear section on the banks of the Wairarapa River, Hampton is an inimitable, secluded, and stately home that exudes old-world charm while offering all the convenience of modern living.
Constructed in 2004 with exquisite attention to detail, this is a home that sits serenely on well-established grounds and embraces the rare magic of a riverside boundary. A wraparound veranda and decking provide the perfect vantage point for surveying the river and private island, while a gazebo on the front lawn and separate studio or office area right on the river offer havens from which to enjoy the lovingly tended grounds.
Inside, no detail has been left to chance, with bespoke shaker-style farmhouse cabinetry in the kitchen effortlessly offsetting the modern convenience of a gas hob, built-in wall ovens, and a substantial scullery. The open plan dining and lounge area interacts with the kitchen, offers a gorgeous gas fire with a traditional lintel, and flows seamlessly through to an adjoining expansive lounge and formal dining area with another gas fire and dual French doors that connect with the veranda and sweeping lawn.
Accommodation is luxurious and spacious, with the master bedroom commanding a sublime position with direct access to the veranda and generous sash windows, as well as a built-in wardrobe and ensuite with a shower and standalone gold claw-foot bath. Two further double bedrooms both offer built-in storage and share a traditionally styled bathroom with an additional gold claw-foot bath and standalone shower, while a large office located near the grand entranceway, could also be utilised as a fourth bedroom.
A carpeted one-and-a-half car garage, plenty of parking, ample internal storage, separate laundry and guest powder room cater to all practical needs and create a home that is functional as well as classically appealing.
This is a rare and exceptionally attractive opportunity in the city’s premier suburb.
