OPEN THIS WEEKEND
This spacious, multi-faceted 5 bedroom, 4 bathroom, 5 car garage, family home is set on an elevated 1100sqm block on one of this prestigious waterside suburb's most sought-after residential streets.
Large, solid, versatile, and of a unique bespoke architectural style, this is a family home that offers so much. Located on one of the highest points in Applecross, boasting panoramic river views across the Swan from UWA to Kings Park, the CBD, South Perth and beyond.
This 1983 vintage family home was architecturally designed and built to maximize the enjoyment of the site, the views and the location, for families as children grow into young adults. The floor plan also works well for multi generational dynamics.
Set on a sprawling, multi-level 1100 sqm block with a 24 sqm frontage and front and rear access, this home features multiple living and accommodation spaces across its three separate levels, including a huge lower-level games or pool room with its own separate access, kitchen, bathroom and laundry.
The ground floor, secure entrance opens into a lower-level entrance lobby with a comfortable guest suite with ensuite bathroom and ground floor study (or fifth bedroom) with doors opening out to a leafy lower-level terrace. The front double garage opens directly into the house at this point.
A classic hallmark of designs of its era, this home features a striking multi-level circular staircase that provides an element of old school cool and sweeps from ground floor to the first floor living space and onwards up to the parents' retreat.
Featuring generous, multi levelled raked ceilings, this home's unique design and floor plan provides both a sense of interconnectedness while providing separate living and accommodation zones.
The first floor is arguably this home's central hub and home to the kitchen, formal and informal dining areas and bar. Featuring sweeping views and overhead glass panels, the spaces offer an abundance of natural light with sweeping curves and planes, generous proportions and angled ceilings.
A well-appointed first floor kitchen features stainless steel Bosch appliances, with granite benchtops and ample bench and cupboard space overlooking a covered north facing terrace framed by views to the city skyline. There is an abundance of natural light and air flow.
The secondary bedrooms are both generously sized and well positioned adjacent to the first floor living areas with walk-in robes and an adjoining bathroom. A loft above this zone, accessed via a drop-down ladder, is fantastic for storage.
The sweeping central staircase separates the mid-level living spaces from this home's, upper-level main bedroom suite. Private and secluded with stunning river views, the bedroom is framed by two sets of folding doors that can be opened up to bring in the light and take advantage of its envious riverside views.
Adjoined by a master ensuite, powder room and elevated spa with a spectacular river backdrop, this adults retreat reflects a bit of old-school Hollywood glamour with its generous proportions, 5 metre ceilings, angled surfaces and panels of glass.
A lower-level games room with a fully equipped second kitchen, additional bathroom and laundry adds another element of versatility to this multi-functional family residence. An ideal space for teenagers and young adults, it provides potential dual living options for those seeking some separation from the bedrooms above.
Linked by an expansive covered outdoor entertaining terrace overlooking the ground floor pool, it offers separate access via an off-street side gate and is serviced by a second rear garage with capacity for an additional three cars.
This is an exceptionally well proportioned, and well-built family home designed to maximise its location and views and enhance the abundant natural light that sweeps throughout.
Minutes from the bustling, cosmopolitan heart of the Ardross Street shopping and dining precinct, this home affords its residents an enviable river precinct lifestyle.
Close to many of the city's premier south of the river private schools and colleges and an easy commute to the CBD, Fraser Road is rightly recognized as one of the city's premier residential addresses.
Well serviced by public transport and home to a burgeoning range of café and dining options, Applecross offers a whisper quiet, private location on the Swan River. It is one of Perths finest suburbs.
Walk less than 500m to the river foreshore and enjoy its plethora of picturesque walking and cycling trails, pick up a coffee at the nearby Ardross Street village precinct or spend the afternoon browsing its many eclectic boutiques and outlets.
Offered for the first time to the market, by the family who built it, this is a rare opportunity for an astute buyer to secure their part of this exclusive river precinct enclave.
