**RV $2,110,000**
Elevated to capture superb west-facing afternoon sun, 16 Hawker Street is a beautifully modernised turn-of-the-century villa that blends Mount Victoria character with the practical comforts of contemporary family living. Classic features such as high stud ceilings and leadlight windows combine effortlessly with modern renovations, creating a home that feels both timeless and contemporary.
The first level forms the heart of the home. A generous living room with bespoke built-in shelving opens through French doors to a sun-soaked deck above the street. From here, the dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, where custom German birch plywood cabinetry introduces warmth and craftsmanship, complementing the villa’s heritage bones while providing practical, modern functionality.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a second living space or snug offers flexibility - perfect as a media room, home office or reading retreat. A rear door leads to a small, level garden, beyond which are two garages accessed from Earls Terrace.
Beneath the garages sits a substantial workshop with impressive stud height, providing excellent storage or workspace, or potential for future development. Owners had feasibility study carried out regarding development of a self-contained flat in this area.
Upstairs, all three bedrooms are spacious doubles, each with ample wardrobe storage. The main bedroom sits at the front, basking in afternoon sun and elevated views, and includes dual wardrobes and an ensuite. Two further double bedrooms are generous in scale, with one featuring a striking Carrara ceiling, and share a well-appointed family bathroom
Clever paddle steps lead to a charming loft space tucked into the roofline. Bathed in natural light, it could serve as a fourth bedroom, yoga studio, children’s play space, or home office - and is the perfect vantage point for watching waterfront fireworks displays.
