Commanding a massive 1012sq metre block on one of Perth's most desirable suburbs, comes a double storey home that is the epitome of luxury and distinction, and raises the bar on contemporary family living. This 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom home, originally built in the 1930's, has undergone an exceedingly beautiful re-build that is meticulous in design, and faultless in execution. From the wide street frontage, the palm tree is striking, the curated hedges and lawns are impressive, and the incredible jarrah wrap-around veranda serves as a unique and functional feature, whilst tipping its hat to the character of the original build.
Inside, soaring high ceilings create abundant light and space. The floorplan flows effortlessly to a lounge and two study rooms, and then on to a magnificent open-planned living area. In the kitchen, the sleek, Essa stone benchtop perfectly contrasts with the dark sliding drawers. As you would expect with a home of this quality, all kitchen appliances are modern and premium range (Miele 6 burner Gas Cooktop, Miele Oven and Miele Dishwasher). With a breakfast bar, fireplace, and elevated ceilings, this open-planned kitchen and living space is designed for entertaining.
The outdoor area is beautiful, private, and expansive. Sprawling out towards curated lawns, lush tropical trees, and a large new sparkling swimming pool, you will be surprised by the space out here. It's the perfect place to host a family party, afternoon soiree with friends, or just read a book on the deck beside the pool, secluded in your own private sanctuary. Thoughtfully designed to complement the outdoor space is a separate condo comprising gym, toilet, laundry, and double garage.
The master bedroom downstairs is stylish, bright, equipped with ceiling high in-built robes and carefully designed so that French doors swing out towards the garden. The ensuite, with Italian tiles, thick glass shower, huge mirror, and vanity, is sleek and luxurious. Downstairs also has another bathroom with Italian tiles and a huge bath, and two large bedrooms, both filled with light and space and in-built wardrobes.
Upstairs, there are two more large and bright bedrooms (both with views over the garden) and a third sumptuous bathroom. There is also a huge separate living space that acts as a third lounge (this can be set up as a teenage retreat or games room). The beauty of this home is how cleverly it has been designed to allow multiple living areas - so everybody has their own private haven they can retreat to.
This beautiful property lies in the heart of one of the most prestigious and tightly held suburbs of Perth. You are a 5-minute stroll from the picturesque Swan River, close proximity to the best private schools, a short drive to boutique designer shops in Claremont, and a 10-minute walk to the cafés on Waratah Avenue (Archie and Max for the best flat white). Occasionally, when a restoration has been performed so exquisitely, a property transcends from a house to a home, and words cannot accurately capture its style and warmth. Peter Robertson invites you to inspect this magnificent family home, an in-person visit is the only way to fully appreciate its beauty.
