Sitting high above Lockhart Street and with private rear lane access, this lovely home is filled with charming detail and unmistakable warmth but has been fully renovated with a firm focus on contemporary lifestyle. The result is a modern home with heart.
The exterior has simple lines enhanced by white French doors, a full width verandah and upper balcony as well as a kitchen bay window while the interior has perfectly combined open plan living with intimate spaces and a flexible floorplan that provides ideal separation of zones.
The ground level is a large open plan casual living space that extends to an outdoor room through three French doors to allow an easy flow to the covered alfresco that is large enough for both a lounge and dining area.
An arch way leads to a casual meals area and the substantial kitchen which is uniquely charming with a bay window yet most definitely practical. Finished in a minimalist black and white palette with gloss cabinetry and stone benchtops, the kitchen spoils you with generous storage from the deep drawers, overhead cupboards and a large pantry.
There are two queen size guest bedrooms on this level (or one bedroom plus a large home office with a door onto the front verandah) and a stunning new bathroom with the convenience of a separate powder room. The laundry matches the kitchen style with the same palette, gloss cabinets, stone benchtop and a white French door.
The feature Jarrah staircase takes you up to three additional bedrooms plus a second sitting room that opens to the front verandah with river glimpses from the elevated position.
You will rest easy in the king size master suite that forms its own beautifully private wing with finishes that include the original decorative ceiling, plush carpet in warm neutral tones and a decadent dressing room with access to the balcony. There is also a lavish ensuite with a walk-in shower and separate powder room in a simple white and grey palette complemented by a touch of elegance from the cornices.
Venture out to find Preston Street cafe strip or Como beach jetty are only a short walk away and there is a choice of bus stops to the city or Caning Bridge train station. Education options are fully covered from Como Primary School through to excellent local high schools and easy access to either of our world class universities.

Como is an established suburb bound to the west by the Canning and Swan Rivers. Part of the City of South Perth's municipality, Como experienced its most significant development during the 1950s and 1960s, with gradual growth since the early 1990s as new dwellings were added to the area.
Parks and reserves are a dominant aspect of the Como landscape, such as one of Como's most notable features the international standard 27 hole Collier Park Golf Course. The Como Hotel is a popular bar, café and restaurant in the suburb and a recognisable fixture of Canning Highway. There are also some shops in the area to service local requirements, as well as four local schools, including Penrhos College.
