What we love
A high wall with feature tiling and recycled cobblestone brick hints at the elegance within, and privacy afforded by this graceful four-bedroom, two-bathroom circa 1917 Federation home.
Nestled within Hyde Park’s lush surrounds, there are two secluded alfresco areas. The north-facing front courtyard with verandah includes sunken garden, water feature and mature trees – magnolias, various fruit and standard roses. They invite exploration down a paved walkway to a nook outside the kitchen’s French doors – perfect for chef to catch fresh air while keeping a watchful eye. While the sumptuous, jarrah-decked rear entertaining area with two-metre-high walls, travertine-surround, solar-heated pool with tiled water feature, glass balustrade, retractible awnings, outdoor kitchen, and powder room implores daily languor.
Despite collective want to downsize ‘stuff’, this home bucks Federation stereotype of one armoire per room, and is brimming with generous, functional, cleverly concealed storage. Some rooms feature wall-to-wall storage, while our favoured instance is the understairs wine cellar, or kids’ hidey-hole.
Federation charms abound – oregon doors, lead lighting, jarrah floorboards, staircase and balustrade; high skirting, picture rails, ceiling roses, milk pendant lighting, hall archway, dormer window and four original wood-burning fireplaces.
You must experience this peaceful, private sanctuary within picturesque, vibrant Mount Lawley.
