Real Estate
Hamilton East is characterised by popular villas and bungalows built early in the 20th century. Many of them have been renovated to include modern amenities. However, most owners bought the houses to recapture the nostalgia of the era. The high studs, exposed native timbers and distinctive craftsmanship, which typify these homes, are often preserved by owners sympathetic to the period.
