14 Almondbury Road, Mount Lawley WA 6050

Classic Character in Premier Location!

This stunning traditional home rests elegantly perched amongst the multitude of exceptional period homes that define this street as one of the finest character destinations in this exclusive Mount Lawley precinct.
The original owner of the house was a very early graduate from the Kalgoorlie School of Mines, and he called the house “Tamworth” after the town he was born in in NSW.

Upon entering the property you are immersed in the picturesque frontage, with its combination of limestone fence and rustic brick paving circling the frontal vegetable gardens with feature fountain. The current owners spend countless hours relaxing on the front wrap-around verandah which perfectly frames the classic tuck-pointed façade, and invites you to enter through the impressive leadlight entry.

Inside you will love the original character features including the central archway, high ceilings with decorative cornicing, ceiling roses, picture rails, jarrah flooring, moulded skirtings and architraves.
All the bedrooms are impressively large, some with feature fireplaces including surrounding mantle pieces and cast iron inserts, and all minor bedrooms with built-in wardrobes. The master suite is complemented with a walk-in robe as well as ensuite bathroom with pedestal basin. The generous size of the rooms allows for a flexible design to utilise the rooms with a multitude of uses.
The main bathroom sits central in the home and has been meticulously renovated with classic claw foot bath, traditional twin vanity cabinet, federation floor and wall tiling with feature trims, and period toilet with pull chain cistern.

The hero of the home is undoubtedly the massive open plan kitchen/dining/family/formal dining area at the rear of the home. This flows from the central hallway, again with the continuation of high ceilings and jarrah flooring, and features a central Kent-style wood fire heater and is enclosed with colonial glass-paneled doors that lead out to the timber decked alfresco.
The enormous gourmet kitchen will impress all with the wood grain cabinetry with long breakfast bench and sophisticated black granite tops, 900mm gas cooktop, 900mm oven, frosted glass overhead doors, and space for the widest of fridges.
The laundry is also at the rear, and provides the shoppers entry into the living area from the secure double garage. Also accessible through the garage is a handy storeroom and extra toilet, with entry also through to the rear yard.

A sizeable lawn area sits adjacent to the outdoor covered alfresco, with its pull-down weather screens to allow all year entertaining, limestone enclosed raised garden beds, timber boxed seating, and segregated enclosed vegetable garden.

This desired location is continually on the hit-list of many being only 3km to the city, and with bus and train access only a few minutes away. It is also walking distance proximity to the St John of God hospital, as well as the bustling Beaufort Street café and shopping strip.
Watch live shows at the Astor Theatre or stroll to the iconic Hyde Park in one direction, and the Swan River and Banks Reserve in the other.
For the sports-minded you are spoilt for choice with the variety of sporting venues including lawn bowls, tennis clubs, golf clubs, and health gyms.

This ideal family home will provide intake accessibility to Mt Lawley High School and Highgate Primary, and is in the midst of the some of the more sought-after secondary colleges and education facilities such as Perth College, Trinity, Mercedes, Edith Cowan University, WA Academy of Performing Arts, WA Conservatorium of Music, and Mt Lawley Tafe.

It is hard to imagine that a visit to view this impressive residence will not leave you determined to secure your new abode and delighted to add your own individual touches and flavour to make this home your own, and finally establish yourself in arguably one of Mount Lawley’s finest streets.
