What About a Rooftop
Simply magnificent! A classic subi cottage, spectacularly transformed into a masterful synergy of old and new where original character melds effortlessly into powerful contemporary spaces. Extension designed by renowned Perth Architect Matthew Klopper.
The charming double gable facade with gorgeous stained glass leadlight front door gives way into a wide hallway with gleaming jarrah floorboards underfoot. Soaring ceilings, high skirtings, ornate ceiling roses and picture rails sit easily alongside magnificent, modern, light filled open plan spaces featuring glass, stone and timber.
Brilliantly designed to meet the demands of modern life with multiple living areas, 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, sensationally large kitchen and dining plus expansive outdoor entertaining and gorgeous pool, families of all ages and stages can live easily here yet still maintain their own space and privacy. Characterised by generous proportions and abundant natural light, the versatile layout offers superb separation of space, striking the perfect balance between relaxed family living and stylish entertaining.
The original front of the home hosts a generous bedroom with built in robes, a tranquil formal living room/library, perfect for relaxing with a book, or with friends away from the bustle of open plan areas and a second spacious bedroom with built in robes and en-suite.
Beyond the end of the hallway, magnificent open plan family spaces framed by walls of glass are gloriously expansive yet clearly defined by function, perfectly balancing relaxed family living and entertaining on a modest or grand scale. The well-appointed white on white kitchen truly is the heart of the home here, with generous formal dining on one side, in front of the fireplace, and casual meals and relaxed family living on the other side. Floor to ceiling stacking doors open to a large alfresco terrace, creating a huge indoor/outdoor entertaining space, perfect for large parties, and equally, for intimate dinners with friends.
Vast floor to ceiling glass along the hallway towards the rear of the home leads to a separate wing for kids with two lovely, big, interconnecting bedrooms and space for desks, a shared bathroom, powder room and fabulously large, sundrenched TV/games/rumpus room with direct access to the garden and pool.
The upper floor extension hosts a magnificent series of rooms and outdoor spaces as a heavenly retreat for adults. There's a blissfully tranquil bedroom in the treetops with walls of glass and generous balcony with a leafy outlook, open robes, sumptuous travertine en-suite with glass walls and roof, bathed in natural light, a home office/nursery/additional dressing room and a spectacular roof deck (as rare as hen's teeth in Subi!)
Flawlessly planned and brilliantly family focused, this incredible home is amazingly easy to live in with its warm, welcoming, laid-back vibe, and perfectly placed to indulge in everything this highly sought after locale has to offer. Walk to The Unicorn Bar, Little Pantry, Clean Food Store, Post Office/pharmacy and Mistelle. Walk 5 mins south to Shenton Village, the Good Grocer and Papa Bello's and 10mins east to Boucla, Jean Claude and Piccolo Trattoria at the southern end of Rokeby Road. Close to Daglish Station, Jualbup Lake, Wholefood Circus, Little Things Gin, Kings Park, hospital precincts and CBD.
