Very few properties come to the market in this tightly held riverside precinct and there are many reasons for this. Think... BBQ'S and children's birthdays at Banks Reserve on the river, walk to cafe's and restaurants in East Perth, walk to the Stadium for concerts and football matches, easy access to the freeway system, walk or ride to work in the CBD. In short-a fabulous lifestyle can be enjoyed within 15 minutes of the city.
Here is your opportunity to enjoy all the above in Mount Lawley's best kept secret.
Just imagine... hot summer nights spent entertaining under the ancient oak tree which shades this lovely rear North-facing garden. Many such nights have been enjoyed by the current owners in their 21 year tenure. A simply beautiful informal living area overlooks this peaceful space, perfect for a leisurely coffee or glass of wine in the evening.
But let's start at the beginning. The water wise front garden shades the wide front verandah of this tuck-pointed brick and iron 1920's home. Enter the wide hallway complete with decorative arch and plasterwork reminiscent of the era, and it will be immediately apparent that this is a generously proportioned home. Beautiful high ceilings, picture rails, cornices and ceiling roses are throughout this lovely home. Four large rooms open from the wide central hallway, three of which could be bedrooms and the fourth is currently a dressing room. This very flexible floorplan allows you to choose how you want to live in this very spacious home. Two of the rooms share a double-sided fireplace and there is a third original fireplace in bedroom three. The bathroom has been beautifully renovated with very on-trend finishes, comes complete with a bath, floor to ceiling tiles and louvres for ventilation. It has direct access to the dressing room.
The dining room is adjacent to the kitchen and has French doors which open to the outside to enjoy those balmy evenings. The galley kitchen is compact and extremely practical with elements of stainless steel and Caesarstone. It features an Ilve Stainless Steel oven, Technika Gas Hotplates, a Miele dishwasher and a Fisher and Paykel Wok-burner. The under-bench refrigerators (2)and freezer are included in the sale. The kitchen opens directly to the rear garden. As an added bonus there is a purpose-built space complete with bathroom alongside the garage in the back garden. How will you use this? Granny flat? Studio? Teenager's retreat?
The lock-up garage with automatic door has access from the paved ROW plus there are 2 further bays on the paved front verge.
This is a wonderful home in a fabulous location. A little bit quirky, definitely not boring and with lots of flexibility. It has been a great family home and now it is time to pass it on to the lucky buyer.
