The White House

Affectionately known as ‘the white house on the corner’, this enchanting two-storey icon celebrates undeniably chic New-England-beach-cottage style with sweeping verandahs, manicured gardens and heritage reminders melded with generous family living. Tasmanian oak floors, soaring ceilings and glorious French doors invite warm natural light and seamless airflow throughout.

Immediate impressions of harmonious birdsong, generous, tree-lined streets and parks at every corner, define the inviting mood of this coveted family-friendly neighbourhood central to three excellent primary schools and some of Perth’s most breathtaking river landscapes.

Inviting exterior attributes of white picket fencing, ornamental roses, hedging & frangipani trees, sit alongside reclaimed brick pathways leading to grand stairs to a north-facing verandah and leadlight framed doorway. Warm white interiors shine against honeyed oak floors which extend to the double-height entrance void, anchored by a split-level staircase.

High ceilings, original picture rails & skirting boards, antique pendant lights and traditional muntin windows (with charming awning detail) continue throughout the home where a cosy lounge/snug and original fireplace, bolster a delightfully light-filled rear living zone. A wall of stunning French doors graces the open-plan living, kitchen and dining – seamlessly connected to a timber-decked alfresco (with screen blinds) and garden views which wind around to a classy pool enclosure evoking subtle Palm Springs vibes. Limestone paving, tropical greenery and an iconic kidney shaped (saltwater) swimming pool add to the supreme liveability of this family home, abundant in sunny nooks and entertaining options.

Enjoying double-aspect windows – including a charming half-moon window feature overlooking the pool - the designer kitchen is appointed with granite benchtops, glass splashbacks, abundant soft-closing cabinetry (+ appliance nook), Bosch dishwasher, 5-burner ILVE gas hobs & St George oven.

A ground floor bathroom (with tub & heated ceiling lamps), Victorian-style timber vanity and checkerboard tiles, doubles as a powder-room and a welcome convenience after a day lounging by the pool. Completing the floor is a discreet guest bedroom, huge laundry and drying court and light-filled study nook with direct garage access.

Three remaining bedrooms (built-in-robes in secondary bedrooms) define the upper floor which celebrates breathtaking lofty views via a central landing and a grand timber balcony.
French doors share the balcony from the opulently spacious master suite with a generous dressing room/walk-in-robe and a luxurious country-coastal ensuite with Victorian-style twin timber vanity, jet spa, heated ceiling lamps & towel rails, and uplifting aquamarine floor tiles.

Other features include an onsite bore and fully reticulated gardens, ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, remote controlled double garage with rear roller door access to park a boat, caravan or vehicles, charming antique federation light switches - plus a lifestyle unmatched by its close proximity to endless grocery, supermarket, fitness and wellness options, along with easy access to Fremantle and its plethora of exciting, coastal attractions.
