There's Just Something About This One

Quintessential Subiaco character meets modern style and comfort here, from within the walls of this stunning 4 bedroom 3 bathroom home that can be twisted and spun any which way you like, as a result of its flexible and functional floor plan.

This fully-renovated gem of an abode has been freshly painted and ensures that plenty of charming features from yesteryear remain firmly intact, with high skirtings, decorative arches and ceiling roses, attractive cornices and classic light switches complementing soaring high ceilings and solid wooden floorboards throughout.

Beyond a delightful white picket fence - with a gate that splendidly secures the front yard and a striking bull-nose verandah entry deck - lies an enchanting interior with so many different options. A huge fourth bedroom doubles as a second lounge and boasts a feature fireplace, a built-in study desk, shelves to either side and extra storage.

Across the entrance hallway sits a spacious second bedroom with a built-in double wardrobe, just inches away from a generous master suite - fireplace, skylight, large fitted walk-in robe and all. A light, bright and stylish ensuite bathroom off here comprises of a skylight, an open walk-in rain shower, heat lamps, a heated towel rack, a toilet, twin stone-vanity basins and a cavity slider for separation from the sleeping quarters.

A generous third bedroom has a gorgeous leadlight feature window, whilst the revamped main family bathroom impressively plays host to a walk-in rain shower, a claw-foot bathtub, a skylight, heated towel rack, heat lamps, a toilet and a powder vanity for washing up.

The sunken open-plan family, dining and kitchen area is where most of your casual time will be spent and is naturally illuminated with two skylights. It is also warmed by a pot-belly wood-fire heater (with bespoke Italian make built-in storage to either side) during those chilly winter months.

The impeccably-updated kitchen itself oozes class in the form of sleek Dekton bench tops and Italian marble splashbacks, cabinetry made and imported from Germany, double sinks, soft-closing drawers, pull-out bins, an integrated stainless-steel Bosch range hood, a Bosch Induction cooktop, a Bosch double-oven setup and a white dishwasher of the same brand.

Bi-fold doors off the family room seamlessly extend entertaining out to a fabulous outdoor alfresco deck, overlooking both the yard and a shimmering below-ground salt water swimming pool - accompanied by two protective shade sails and an in-ground pool cover.

The modernised laundry-come-third bathroom makes the most of both the floor and wall space on offer with its shower, separate toilet, ample storage options and French-door access out to a tranquil north-facing backyard with a clothesline and low-maintenance artificial turf.

In terms of secure parking, a lock-up garage can be accessed from the cul-de-sac laneway at the rear and has a separate side door that leads to the backyard. The space is complete with generous loft storage above.

Embrace a location where everything is either a short walk or bus-ride away, including our iconic Kings Park and the heart of the vibrant Perth CBD. Stroll leisurely to local fitness facilities, restaurants, cafes, boutiques, general shops, bars and entertainment venues, with both Rokeby Road and Hay Street within touching distance.

Both Subiaco Square and Subiaco Train Station can be reached in a matter of only minutes, whilst West Perth, the river, Elizabeth Quay, UWA, medical facilities and so much more are available to you in the opposite direction.

This one will pull at your heartstrings, in every way, shape and form. Talk about love at first sight!
