159a Rochdale Road, Mount Claremont WA 6010

Splendid charm and character pervade this gorgeous 3 bedroom 2 bathroom circa-1950s street-front home that has been tastefully refurbished over the years and will leave garden enthusiasts salivating at the prospect of a pleasant leafy aspect from virtually every window.

A surprising sense of both privacy and security graces this elegant abode, along with soaring high ceilings, wooden floorboards, decorative ceiling roses and cornices, feature skirting boards and stylish chandelier light fittings. Double gates not only secure the double carport, but also create a safe haven for the children within a secluded front yard – with lush green lawn – that is bordered by high garden walls and a picturesque combination of Salvia, Murraya hedging, Indian Summer Crepe Myrtles and purple Wisteria.

Once inside, you will discover two separate living spaces – a large light-filled front lounge room that extends out to a delightful side courtyard via beautiful double doors and a sublime second lounge/living room, perfect for sitting and quiet contemplation whilst also allowing plenty of natural sunlight to filter through its feature cathedral skylight. Double doors link the latter to a versatile formal dining room at the centre of the floor plan that can easily be converted into a study or home-office area if need be.

Stylish is the word used to best describe the kitchen and casual meals area where sparkling Carrara marble bench tops and glass splashbacks meet quality integrated range-hood, stainless-steel oven and Induction-cooktop appliances. There are two additional courtyards either side of a large rear laundry – an intimate garden setting with benches for seating and a main tranquil entertaining courtyard where a trickling water feature helps set the mood.

Sitting on approximately 412sqm, this exemplary residence is only two streets back from Cottesloe Golf Club, is just a short five-minute drive to the beach, finds itself only footsteps away from Lake Claremont and the local shopping village and is close to sprawling parklands, Swanbourne Primary School, Christ Church Grammar School, public transport, food, coffee and world-class shopping at Claremont Quarter and other top educational facilities – including John XXIII College. How stunning!
