A Breathtaking Federation Bungalow Transformation

Behind the charming picket-fence façade of this 20s-era federation home, is a dramatic reveal of grand, light imbued spaces fused with dreamy Parisian style. French mosaic floor tiles and tapware, glossy jarrah floors, an intimate library nook and customised stained-glass accents, furnish the free-flowing floorplan of this coveted modern makeover.

Reclaimed from the demolition of an old mansion home in Peppermint Grove sits a spectacular domed leadlight window which greets the eye from the central foyer and offers glimpses of the magic to come.

French glass doors separate the original front section of the home where soaring ceilings, Victorian-style ceiling roses and a designer bathroom clad in French mosaic floor tiles, frameless shower and Perrin & Rowe tapware (inclusive of a traditional pedestal sink) form part of this private wing where two spacious bedrooms (or study/dressing room option), are joined by sumptuous living spaces.

Cocooned in walls of black lacquered bookshelves and a pretty window seat, the cosy library joins a sunny sitting room with a continuation of black accents in the original fireplace, and French doors out to the north-facing terrace.

A switch-back custom-made jarrah staircase conceals a powder room and spacious laundry (with laundry chute) before leading to the breezy rear extension. White-framed bifold doors, offset by subtle hints of black (French imported) hardware, line the entire northern aspect of the home and link the terrace and gardens to the spectacular open plan living, kitchen and dining - making the most of serene garden views.

Anchored by a sprawling Cararra-stone island bench, the kitchen has the Vendors trademark style of clean, uncluttered luxury amongst its endless array of snowy white cabinetry, practical stainless-steel benchtops and hand-selected pendant lights from France.

Exclusively appointed in Miele appliances (conventional oven, steam oven, warmer drawer, integrated dishwasher & induction stove), there’s also a Zip hydro tap and Liebherr side-by-side fridge.

Industrial-style pendant lights furnish the living and alfresco, bringing an edgy contemporary style to the mix, while an eye-catching hexagonal window with indigo-blue stained glass feature panels, nods to the home’s architectural heritage. More bifold doors fuse the living and alfresco and offer refreshing airflow throughout this generous living space.

Upstairs brings another layer of curated style. Pastel hued stained-glass panels flow throughout the three spacious bedrooms (each with built-in-robes) and the central snug or sitting room which enjoys the bulk of the home’s magnificent northern light.

Another French-styled bathroom includes a traditional claw-tooth bath, huge frameless shower and heated towel rail in addition to heated flooring.

There’s also a (front aspect) free-standing studio/playroom and bore onsite to maintain the easy-care reticulated gardens, ducted (zoned) reverse-cycle air-conditioning, a huge garden shed/workshop (with 3-phase power & concrete floor), secure twin carport with automatic gate access, pull-down ladder attic storage, a security safe and video intercom entry.

Located within the highly sought-after John Curtin College of the Arts and Richmond Primary School catchment areas, this exquisite family home just keeps on giving with its sweeping verandas and sublime privacy, in addition to close proximity to the river & beach, along with all the gourmet lifestyle attractions to be found in Freo and the endearing community of East Fremantle.
