Renovated Character Home in South Freo
This 1900's fully renovated character home has been masterfully extended to provide 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a double undercroft garage with a workshop and cellar.
The original home greets you with a bull nose verandah over a protected front courtyard, and the wide, central hallway leads past two front rooms and into the open plan living area. All zones are spacious and have plenty of natural light from casement windows on both sides. The front windows are double glazed and the home boasts jarrah floor boards, picture rails, ceiling roses and deep Victorian cornices. The front 2 rooms both have built in cupboards, and one has a fireplace with mantle and gas fire insert.
The kitchen is funky and well designed, with lots of bench space, including a breakfast bar with Corian stone tops and extensive cupboard space above and below. There is 900mm gas cook top, Smeg oven with rangehood, Fisher and Paykel 2 draw dishwasher, and a double sink placed perfectly for views over the gardens.
The main bedroom to the rear of the home has the most stunning French doors to a private terrace - multiple small panes with an arched highlight window above create a sense of gracious living. This outlook to the abundant gardens creates a classic, European-style elegance.
The garden is large, lush and beautifully landscaped, with 3 separate zones for entertaining, play and relaxation. The design and maturity of this garden is remarkably rare. Cool, fresh and tranquil in the summer heat, it is a true oasis, and will be the centre for many a gathering with family and friends.
This property has provided joy and happiness to the current family and will, no doubt, provide the new owner with the same pleasures for years to come.
