Boasting the perfect blend of classic Federation features and modern comforts, this stunning Subiaco character home is ready to welcome new owners.
Beautifully renovated, the property exudes the charm of yesteryear from the moment you arrive, from the wrought iron and limestone fence and entry gate, to the tuckpointed red brick and leadlight windows. Pretty cottage gardens with standard roses, white-painted fretwork and tessellated veranda tiles complete the timeless exterior appeal.
Inside the circa 1920's front of the home, you'll find many typical hallmarks of a bygone era, including soaring ceilings with ornate roses and cornices, original jarrah floorboards, and fireplaces with cast-iron grates. The main suite occupies the front of the residence, comprising a spacious bedroom, a roomy walk-in robe plus built-ins, and an elegant fully-tiled ensuite featuring a gorgeous claw-foot bathtub and frameless rain shower. Adjacent, bedroom two also offers built-in robes, and the third bedroom includes a fireplace.
Across the hall, the lounge room provides a separate living area for cosy nights in, with an open fireplace, large bay window and a wrought-iron candelabra light fitting. The kitchen marks the start of the home's magnificent extension and boasts granite benches, including a large island with drawers and an integrated Miele dishwasher. There's ample cabinetry, a double ceramic sink and an impressive 900mm Ilve gas oven with a 6-burner cooktop - everything you'll need for catering for your family and guests.
Step down to the vast living area for inclusive family activities and meals, and open up the expansive bi-fold stacking doors to integrate the indoor and outdoor living areas for all-season entertaining. The rear of the home houses the family bathroom, an activity room/study and the large fourth bedroom that overlooks the rear gardens.
Outside, the fully reticulated gardens include a generous expanse of lawn, with neat hedging and mature trees, including mandarin, crepe myrtles, and magnolias along the eastern boundary. The extra-wide lock-up garage is accessed via the ROW behind the property and includes roof rafters and steel shelving for storage.
Additional noteworthy features include a 4kW solar system with 16 panels, split system air conditioning to the rear extension and ducted reverse-cycle to the original part of the home.
