I grew up in Hampton and have always loved the area. Living so close to the beach shaped my childhood and gave me a lifelong appreciation for the water, from swimming and sailing to simply enjoying a walk along the foreshore. Hampton still feels like home to me, and I genuinely enjoy sharing its relaxed coastal lifestyle.

Hampton is one of Melbourne’s hidden coastal gems, perfectly positioned on the shores of Port Phillip Bay. Just 25 minutes by train from Melbourne’s CBD, it offers the ideal balance between city convenience and relaxed seaside living. This picturesque bayside suburb is known for its wide sandy beaches, walking and cycling paths along the foreshore, and stunning sunsets over the water. Hampton Street forms the heart of the community, lined with quality cafés, restaurants, wine bars and boutique shops, giving the area a welcoming village atmosphere. Everything is within easy walking distance, from morning coffee to evening dining. With leafy streets, beautiful period homes and a calm, friendly vibe, Hampton feels peaceful and refined while still being close to the energy of central Melbourne. It is popular with families, professionals and visitors who appreciate a quieter stay without sacrificing access to the city.
