178 Lawson St, Hamilton South NSW 2303, Australia

This beautiful, iconic Federation weatherboard home includes elegant ornate fretwork, stunning plaster ceilings and coloured glass windows, SHAC architects have transformed this eye-catching beauty into a modern masterpiece.

The traditional layout at the front features three of the four bedrooms before the formal lounge room sits at its heart featuring custom cabinetry, a cosy gas fire and access to the return verandah where you can sit for hours and clearly watch the kids play across the road in Learmonth Park. A contemporary extension with soaring vaulted ceiling and windows opens the home up to the light and creates a terrific connection with the outdoors. Here, the absolutely private rear sanctuary is picture-perfection and layered with a covered deck and BBQ area framed by tall greenery and a 100-year-old Frangipani tree. Back inside, the island kitchen is a natural gathering point for family life while two sophisticated bathrooms, fitted with Italian tiles, add to the sense of style.

With so much to admire inside, it’s easy to forget what a standout location this is too, moments from Beaumont Street’s dining and shopping, 600m from school and a quick dash to the beach.
