THE DEAL
A considered balance of heritage character and modern function, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom home offers an architectural approach to inner-city living. Extended and reimagined with attention to both form and flow, it combines the warmth of early 20th century craftsmanship with crisp, contemporary materials across a highly liveable floorplan.
From the street, the classic façade is framed by manicured hedges and a raised timber verandah – a timeless first impression in a pocket known for its neighbourly charm. Inside, original features like ornate ceiling roses, leadlight windows and a decorative fireplace provide a nod to the past, while jarrah floorboards carry warmth and continuity throughout.
The layout divides sleeping and living zones with purpose. At the front, three well-proportioned bedrooms enjoy generous storage, high ceilings and soft light. The master suite features a private ensuite and aspect to the verandah, creating a sense of separation and calm.
Down the hallway, the home opens into a striking open-plan living, dining and kitchen zone where volume, texture and light take centre stage. Here, clean lines and robust materials – including full-height exposed brick and a floating concrete hearth – deliver both visual interest and durability. The kitchen is anchored by a waterfall island bench and extensive cabinetry, while pendant lighting creates a sense of rhythm across the dining space.
French doors extend the internal footprint out to a sheltered alfresco with timber battened ceiling and built-in seating – a true outdoor room, equally suited to summer entertaining or daily routine. A second bathroom, full laundry and dedicated linen storage round out the practical details.
