Reasons to call this home:
Completely reimagined and exceptionally located, this is a home that would be almost impossible to replicate in today’s market. Positioned within one of Cottesloe’s most tightly held and walkable pockets, this extensively renovated residence delivers an outstanding level of finish, space and lifestyle, offering a far more compelling alternative to building from scratch.
The home has undergone a full top-to-bottom transformation, now presenting as a refined, light-filled coastal retreat where every detail has been thoughtfully considered and every finish carefully selected. In a market where construction costs remain high and build timeframes continue to stretch, this is a genuine turn-key opportunity with all the hard work already done — and done to an exceptional standard — allowing you to simply move in and enjoy.
Designed for effortless everyday living, the well-considered layout is enhanced by a sun-drenched north-facing rear that fills the main living areas and outdoor entertaining spaces with natural light. At the heart of the home, a beautifully appointed open-plan kitchen, dining and living zone flows seamlessly outdoors through expansive stacker doors, perfectly capturing the indoor-outdoor lifestyle Cottesloe is so well known for.
Outside, the entertaining is truly exceptional, with a resort-style alfresco featuring a built-in BBQ, servery window and breakfast bar overlooking a sparkling below-ground pool, framed by sleek glass fencing and generous lawn space. An elevated timber deck adds further flexibility, creating the perfect space for hosting guests, relaxing with family, or simply enjoying the coastal setting.
Upstairs, a substantial secondary living area or retreat complete with its own kitchenette provides valuable separation, making it ideal for families, guests, or multi-generational living.
Set in a premium Cottesloe location, this home is just moments from the beach, train station, cafés and Napoleon Street, while also being close to leading schools including Scotch College and Presbyterian Ladies' College. To secure land in this location and recreate a home of this scale and quality today would come at a significantly greater cost, not to mention the time, approvals and uncertainty involved. This is the finished product — without the wait.

Its land area spans four square kilometres and is characterised by a blend of historical and modern residences.
With the beach at your door step and the city centres of Perth and Fremantle a short drive away, Cottesloe's enviable lifestyle is what makes it such a desirable location. The world-renowned Cottesloe Beach stretches for 1.5 kilometres and draws a crowd from all over the state, country and world. Also in the suburb is The Cottesloe Beach Hotel, which has been a landmark destination of Cottesloe for more than a hundred years. Cottesloe Railway Station, Cottesloe Shopping Centre and Grove Plaza are other notable fixtures of the area, as are the two local primary schools and local high school.
