ORIGINAL ARCHITECTURAL GEM - A BRILLIANT BLANK CANVAS!
ALL OFFERS CLOSING @ 5pm today, Tues 17th August 2021.
For the first time in over half a century, this original "blank canvas" home, resting atop a spacious & elevated 875sqm landholding, is offered for sale. Ideally positioned in a quiet, family-friendly location, surrounded by green open spaces with the vast bushy expanses of spectacular Bold Park as a backdrop. Further complemented by Fortview Park and picturesque Perry Lakes Reserve and of course just moments away from some of Perth's finest & most iconic beaches.
World class sporting facilities on your doorstep include the Mount Claremont sporting precinct incorporating HBF Stadium, WAIS, WA Athletics Stadium, Bendat Basketball Centre and headquarters of Western Force and Perth Glory. UWA Sports Park (McGillivray Oval), Cottesloe and Claremont Golf Courses, public swimming pools and more are all nearby.
Close to some of Perth's finest private schools & colleges and within the sought-after Shenton College catchment zone, education options are numerous. A short walk to the Mt Claremont Village shops & cafes and easy access to Subiaco, West Perth, the CBD and Floreat Forum and Claremont Quarter shopping precincts.
The existing mid-century home was architecturally designed by Ean McDonald and Ed Whitaker, who were quoted to have "never designed anything without putting a north point on it and considering morning and afternoon sun, summer and winter and the north-west and cooling breezes." These foundations help pave the way for multiple options, all with limitless potential - by either renovating to a high contemporary standard, taking advantage of the huge North facing backyard by extending the house further & maximising vistas over Bold Park or starting afresh and creating your brand-new dream home.
The upper level living zone features full-height windows to best capture passive solar light and views to Perth City from the front balcony are simply an added bonus. The "retro" interior is complemented by a large two-car garage and further generous open parking for additional cars, boats, trailers or campervans. Almost every window in the home reveals a splendid leafy aspect of the surrounding mature trees and flourishing gardens.
Almost impossible to 'over capitalise' here with numerous high quality neighbouring homes – so get your creative juices flowing for your renovation, extension or redevelopment!
