Subiaco's Most Iconic Double Block
Simply spectacular! Perfectly situated on a prime corner landholding in one of Subiaco's most loved, leafy streets, an immaculately presented, beautifully restored and superbly extended character residence with gorgeous street appeal and brilliantly positioned to indulge in everything this coveted locale has to offer.
There's a wonderfully warm welcome to this magnificent family home set in perfectly landscaped formal gardens and designed to highlight symmetry and order with manicured hedges, lawns, water fountain, neatly planted garden beds and a lovely terrace surrounded by beautiful mature trees. Striking interiors are a captivating meld of old and new with soaring ceilings, ornate layers of cornicing, ceiling roses, stained glass leadlight windows, jarrah floors and original fireplaces resting easily alongside sympathetically extended open plan spaces, perfectly maintaining the home's connection to its Federation past.
Multiple formal and informal living and dining areas, 4 generous bedrooms, 3 stylish bathrooms, modern kitchen and expansive outdoor entertaining with large pool means that families of all ages and stages can live easily together here yet still maintain their privacy. Generously proportioned rooms and a versatile floorplan offers superb functionality and clever separation of space. The original home hosts beautifully balanced, spacious formal living and dining rooms with glorious stained glass leadlight bay windows and lovely fireplaces, a tranquil master suite with large built-in robes and elegant bathroom, a second en-suite bedroom with sitting area/study and a TV/lounge room.
Beyond, gorgeously bright and airy open plan family spaces extend across the rear. A generous living area alongside a sleek, well-appointed kitchen featuring a waterfall edge island with casual seating, a suite of Miele appliances, large pantry and plenty of prep and storage space. There's something for everyone outside - a splendid dining and entertaining terrace under a grapevine entwined pergola, perfect for dining alfresco with friends or relaxing on a lounge with a book, a pristine pool for the kids plus lawn at the front to play on, a private terrace under shady trees and a deep wraparound verandah to watch the world go by…
Back inside, the separate children's wing offers kids a space of their own with two gorgeous bedrooms, stylish bathroom and rumpus room/study.
Perfectly in harmony with the demands of modern life, there's so much to love about this exceptional family home - its elegant and refined, yet relaxed and comfortable in equal measure and set on a fabulous family sized block in a supremely enviable location. Walking distance to Rosalie Primary School, Jualbup Lake and playgrounds, the gorgeous Wholefood Circus, Little Pantry, The Clean Food Store and The Unicorn Bar on Nicholson Road, Shenton Village shops, and close to Shenton College, Daglish Station, the hospital precinct, Kings Park and CBD.
