Recognised as a finalist in the Housing Industry Association Awards, this beautiful home is a true match for its idyllic setting.
Positioned opposite a wide reserve where magnificent original gumtrees have been retained, the exterior of this stunning home is an exercise in modernist simplicity. Inside, excellence in contemporary architecture co-exists with the textures of the surrounding natural environment to create a serene and light-filled home.
From the entry, a vast open plan living, dining and kitchen area features a minimal palette of fine interior finishes and large windows, framing glimpses of the exquisitely designed gardens beyond. To the front of the home, a living room with suspended built-in cabinetry looks out to the reserve, while beyond the kitchen, the dining/entertaining zone opens on two sides allowing breezes to drift through. This is a wonderful space for entertaining, spilling out to a peaceful courtyard on one side and a timber-decked alfresco area with cascading fishpond on the other.
Defining the central kitchen space is a long, wide island bench in marble-effect Caesarstone, while a generous window splashback invites the garden in. With Siemens appliances and touch-opening cabinetry in glossy white and fine timber veneer, the kitchen is elegant, spacious and totally functional.
Large format porcelain tiling in a concrete finish gives a hint of industrial chic throughout the ground floor, with the indulgence of under-floor heating. Also on this level is a large powder room and laundry, as well as the double garage with rear access from Silver Lane.
Ascending the European oak stairs, glass balustrading and northern windows create a light-well effect to the boardwalk between bedroom zones. Overlooking the reserve is the master bedroom and en-suite, where you can relax in the freestanding oval bathtub and look out to the trees. Tones of white, timber and concrete are repeated here, continuing the theme of quality through simplicity. European oak floors flow throughout the upstairs level, where a second living area, another lovely bathroom and three more bedrooms occupy a separate zone at the rear of the home.
Located on a very quiet street and within a parkland setting, this intelligent contemporary home is located a stone's throw from Perry Lakes Reserve and the walking tracks of Bold Park, strolling distance from Floreat Forum and bus routes to the CBD, and a short drive to Floreat and City beaches.
