17 Loftus Street, Nedlands WA 6009

Exuding a sense of timelessness, this solid, circa 1940's-character home with undeniable charm, features stunning jarrah floorboards, original cornices and ceiling roses and has been stylishly extended to offer a flexible floor plan hallmarked by an abundance of natural light and a welcoming ambience.

While preserving its original spirit and classic features this home has been tastefully renovated to the highest standards and features a modern, sleek kitchen complete with stone benchtops, an abundance of storage space and quality built-in appliances, overlooking a tranquil weather-protected verandah, perfect for summer gatherings and autumn BBQ's.

The kitchen melds seamlessly into a generous, light-filled room incorporating a tasteful, double-sided feature fireplace. This is very much the family hub of the home - a lovely central space to relax with large glass doors affording an ambient atmosphere, filled with natural light and views to the garden.

From there, step outside the double doors onto the verandah and through to the BBQ area and garden, which is replete with plenty of greenery. Here you can entertain guests in style, enjoy family time, potter in the veggie garden or simply read a book while the scent of the garden's jasmine and frangipani flowers is carried on the breeze.

Back inside and the master bedroom enjoys a particularly lovely aesthetic, including large timber windows looking out to the lush garden, copious built-in robes and a stylish ensuite which includes twin sinks and a luxurious spa bath, all beautifully presented in a neutral palate.

Two further generous sized bedrooms, with built-in robes, are complemented by an additional, detached garden studio which is currently a fourth bedroom, but which can also serve as a separate home office, playroom, or art studio. This overlooks the manicured lawn and mature fruit trees.

Enter the formal sitting area through the home's original feature doors, to a generous room featuring wall storage and built-in bookcases, a welcoming fireplace and a magnificent timber east-facing window overlooking a front balcony and neat garden.

Also encompassing a second light and bright bathroom, a compact laundry with good storage, a study/ library area complete with room for a significant book collection, and the inclusion of a compact home gym accessible from the driveway, this classic home is equipped with an abundance of quality features and fittings. Put simply, this well-tended, peaceful property offers an enviable lifestyle hallmarked by convenience, comfort and style, right in the heart of the highly sought-after suburb of Nedlands.
