This beautiful character home has been in the same family since 1939, and while updates and additions have been made, they have thoughtfully extended the back of the house, leaving the original frontage and character charm in place. The standard and presentation of this home is evident from the moment you arrive, with green lawns and manicured hedges, leading you to the welcoming verandah entry.
Sitting proudly on an elevated 989sqm block with views of the Floreat valley, the location is hard to beat. Easy access to the beach, stroll to Floreat Forum, cafés and restaurants.
Beautifully cared for and maintained, the ornate cornices and ceilings, accompanied by timber flooring and leadlight doors and windows bring the joy of yesteryear, while providing space and opportunity to update or renew as you please.
Inside you will discover multiple living areas, including a lovely tv and reading room which overlooks the tranquil garden – what a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. The front lounge features original character touches, plus a grand brick fireplace for those chilly winter evenings.
Enjoy family meals and entertaining in the central kitchen, with an abundance of storage, gas cooking, bench space and even room for a central breakfast table.
There are 3 well sized bedrooms, with bedroom 2 even offering a balcony to sit and enjoy the summer breeze. The bathroom is also of a good size with a bath, and a separate 2nd w/c is located off the laundry – which has ample storage and bench space.
Not to be forgotten is the great outdoors – the backyard is private, peaceful and serene, with sprawling green lawns for the kids and pets to play, a brick-paved path leads you beyond the lawns to a second paved rear space with 2 sheds, and grand trees - The large Willow tree which features in the garden was originally planted as a seedling from the family farm in Dunsborough.
The extras:
Automatic single undercroft garage, plus plenty of room for extra parking
Modern ducted air-conditioning
