Nestled on a quiet and leafy Subiaco street, this gorgeous 4 bedroom 3 bathroom character home exudes both charm and comfort, with a series of stunning century-old features flawlessly combining with a flexible and versatile floor plan for functional family living.
A striking verandah entry deck adds to the residence's delightful street appeal, with soaring high ceilings, solid wooden floorboards, feature ceiling cornices, decorative ceiling roses, high feature skirting boards and picture rails helping preserve its original nostalgia of yesteryear, beyond the front door. Boasting their own fireplaces, the front master and second bedrooms - both large in size - capture plenty of natural morning sunlight, with the master suite itself playing host to a ceiling fan, a walk-in wardrobe and a stylishly-updated ensuite bathroom with a shower, stone vanity and toilet. The second bedroom has split-system air-conditioning for good measure.
A central formal dining room - with a generous under-stair storeroom - leads through to an open-plan lounge, meals and kitchen area that is graced by exquisite brickwork, a built-in table with cushioned seating, two ceiling fans and a gas bayonet for heating. The cleverly-renovated kitchen oozes modern class with its sparkling granite bench tops, subway-tile splashbacks, Hamptons-style cabinetry, soft-closing drawers, double sinks, double-door storage pantry, integrated Qasair stainless-steel range hood, stainless-steel Siemens five-burner gas-cooktop and oven appliances and stainless-steel Miele dishwasher.
The spacious family room that it all overlooks comprises of split-system air-conditioning and a Regency wood-burner fireplace with a sublime stone feature wall - the perfect place for conversation. The hallway to the laundry has window louvers for cross-flow ventilation, as well as pleasant views out to the loveliest of backyard settings. The laundry is light, bright, has storage and even enjoys external access to the yard for drying, whilst a separate second bathroom completes the downstairs features, with a shower, toilet and powder vanity found off the lounge space.
Upstairs, a commodious extra living/retreat area benefits from a north-facing aspect and has tree-lined views to savour, alongside a ceiling fan and another gas bayonet to help counter the winter chill. Also up here are huge third and fourth bedrooms - with split-system air-conditioners, ceiling fans and their own lush green outlooks to wake up to, a linen press, separate toilet and a modernised fully-tiled third bathroom with an over-sized shower, a separate bathtub, a stone vanity and more verdant views of the surrounding treetops. Both the fourth bedroom and retreat even has access into the roof for storage.
Two sets of double doors seamlessly extend the lower-level lounge and family areas out to a terrific alfresco-entertaining deck at the rear, where café/shade blinds offer protection from the elements. The decent backyard has lawn, a cubby house, sandpit and bench for the kids to play with, a lemon tree, a powered lock-up workshop and a lock-up studio - or home office - that can be whatever you want it to be, depending on your personal needs. Gated access via the privacy of a back laneway is simply an added bonus, here.
Only metres separate your front doorstep from the shaded Redfern Street Mini Park and its fantastic playground for the young ones, with Daglish Train Station, the Subiaco Arts Centre, the beautiful Subiaco Theatre Gardens, the Subi Farmers Market, Subiaco Primary School and cafes, restaurants and shopping along Rokeby Road all just walking distance away in their own right. Even the Subiaco Village and Subiaco Square precincts are nearby, along with Bob Hawke College and Shenton College (optional intake areas for both schools), our iconic Kings Park, top medical facilities, the river, Elizabeth Quay, or vibrant Perth CBD, surrounding entertainment hotspots, world-class shopping at Claremont Quarter, the University of Western Australia and so much more. This location and lifestyle package, coupled with the enchantment of a bygone era, is simply too good of an opportunity to pass up!
