UNDER OFFER BY LOUISE POPE - WHITEHOUSE PROPERTY PARTNERS

Every now and then you discover a home that captures the essence of this eclectic, colourful and character-laden suburb and this Valley gem is no exception. Enchanting front and rear gardens cocoon the home in greenery and daily birdsong, creating an atmosphere of country-style serenity, while the interior is filled to the brim with personality. And this location couldn’t be better positioned for leisurely strolls to Booyeembara Park, Sullivan Hall for community classes, White Gum Valley primary school, Fremantle Golf Course or the industrial-arts quarter around Stack Street, and only a short drive to Freo, the river or beautiful beaches.

With a north-facing, elevated aspect, the front veranda soaks up the sunshine beneath a timber pergola wrapped in wisteria vines. Fragrant purple blooms are a mainstay in the spring while it provides a natural screen of greenery in the summer as you sit with a drink in hand or share a meal with loved ones amongst your garden oasis loved by native birdlife.

The original home unfolds to gleaming jarrah floorboards, ceiling fans throughout, geometric ceilings, awning windows that embrace the cool Freo Doctor breeze and an open-plan layout with double-doors to the veranda. Separate from the other rooms, the master retreat is a haven of rest and relaxation; French windows, white plantation shutters, and a serene ensuite with a deep-soak bath and louvred glass to a concealed flower courtyard outside. A custom-built walk-in robe is also nearby.

The air-conditioned kitchen provides all the essentials; gas cooking in the oven and five-burner stovetop, ample storage space, stone benchtops and timber cabinetry. Extending down the hallway are three more bedrooms (two with built-in robes), an original 60s bathroom with a modern touch of new wall titles, laundry/kitchenette and another spacious, air-conditioned ‘garden room’ – perfectly named for the views outside the walls of glass.

The beautiful gardens continue towards a private studio and ideal teenager’s retreat, study, artist’s workshop or home-based business with earthy terracotta floors, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, a bathroom and a lovely pair of French doors that open out to the greenery. Edible delights include lime, kefir lime, a vegetable patch and more, while the bougainvillea and climbing star jasmine vines create a secret garden pathway to the side of the house and private courtyard beneath the main bedroom’s ensuite.

Seamlessly blending into the natural beauty of the surrounding Valley landscape – peace and serenity await in this pretty as a picture, garden retreat.
