147 Forrest Street, Peppermint Grove WA 6011

Welcome to what has to be one of the most prized, stately homes in Peppermint Grove. This Heritage-listed, double-storey residence leaves no stone unturned as it effortlessly merges a tasteful, classic charm with contemporary style - a superbly presented, five-bedroom, plus study, five-bathroom home of stunning proportions, featuring strong architectural elements and filled with an abundance of natural light and quality features throughout.

Originally a single-storey red brick Colonial Bungalow built in the early 1900s, this north-facing residence is imbued with age and character while also affording fine, timeless, contemporary living. Undergoing renovations in a nod to its colonial past, this magnificent family home still reflects its existing architectural style while offering a modern ambience in a simple, elegant style, with multiple living areas and a second storey added to accommodate the bedroom zones.

Enter this stately residence through a private, gated entrance, past the resort-style swimming pool, gazebo and lawns, through the French doors to be greeted by sophisticated, clean lines and stylish opulence. The open plan living/dining and kitchen area is a gorgeous, expansive space of neutral tones, Jarrah flooring and high ceilings with stunning views out to lush, mature gardens. A separate dining room and living room, both featuring a marble fireplace afford a luxurious elegance while the kitchen is a generous and well-appointed room filled with quality features, fittings, storage and appliances.

All five bedrooms on the upper floor exude comfort and style, boasting built-in robes, and plush carpet with their own balcony access, with the main bedroom an extremely generous size, replete with large ensuite and walk in-robes. The office provides a beautiful workspace with doors to the timber balcony and tropical gardens beyond while all bathrooms are sleek and modern.

This luxurious classic is an amalgamation of taste, elegance and clever design and assures those who reside here, a truly, unique, historical family home close to the best of everything Peppermint Grove has to offer. Stroll to the Swan River foreshore, or head west and you have the Indian Ocean and the iconic Cottesloe Esplanade and an array of dining options. Yacht clubs, golf clubs and Claremont Quarter are mere moments away, while quality schools, local shopping centre and outdoor cinema are all within easy reach.

This is a magnificent home filled with natural light, character and soul - a residence rich in history, generous proportions, lush gardens and bespoke furnishings - an aesthetic that is beautifully liveable for the whole family in an incredible location.
