Finished to the highest of standards and offered fully furnished, this stunning 3 bedroom 2 bathroom-plus study two-residence truly is the complete package, occupying a commanding low-maintenance 453sqm (approx.) block that benefits from breathtaking city views as a result of its spectacular elevation.
The centrepiece of the home sits off the family room – a new award-winning open-plan kitchen and dining area that is an entertainer’s dream and was voted the best kitchen of 2023 by the Housing Industry Association (HIA) with its sparkling stone bench tops, built-in dining table, stylish pendant light fittings, ample storage space, integrated range hood, integrated Miele dishwasher and the latest integrated Miele Induction-cooktop, conventional-oven, steam-oven and warming-drawer appliances. Incorporated
into the well-designed kitchen is a fully-integrated Liebherr dual-zone wine fridge and bar that makes the space ideal for both casual meals and formal dinner parties.
Perfect for casual gatherings and pre-dinner drinks, a timber-lined alfresco/sitting area to the side of the dining space has a ceiling fan, audio speakers to pump out your favourite tunes, a heating strip and aluminium louvers for cross-flow ventilation. The adjacent outdoor-entertaining alfresco can also be accessed via bi-fold doors from within the kitchen that reveal a wall-mounted television and full “second” kitchen with double Vintec drinks fridges, a Franke sink offering chilled and filtered water, an integrated range hood, a Siemens electric cooktop, gas-burner and Teppanyaki barbecue plate, more stone bench tops, a ceiling fan and two further heating strips to help counter the winter chill. Further north-facing aluminium shutters can be opened or closed to create a year-round entertaining area that is suited to your individual needs.
Also downstairs is a carpeted theatre room behind the privacy of double doors – complete with a projector, movie-style screen and all of its furnishings included. The carpeted study off the entry is more like a work-from-home office, featuring heaps of custom storage, split-system air-conditioning and built-in desks – doubling as workstations for between 2-3 family members.
A large under-stair storeroom, a functional laundry (with loads of storage, internal hanging space, Miele washer and dryer appliances and access out to the side drying courtyard), a separate toilet and a fully-tiled main family bathroom – with a shower, separate bathtub, stone vanity and heat lamps – complement two spare bedrooms on the ground floor, both carpeted with ceiling fans and mirrored built-in wardrobes.
Upstairs, a carpeted parents’ retreat defines adult relaxation and, via double doors, opens out to a fabulous covered front balcony that looks out to our famous Perth city skyline and allows you to experience both magical sunrises and sunsets on the same day. Separate double doors from both the balcony and retreat lead into a huge king-sized master suite that is also carpeted for comfort like the other bedrooms and comprises of a city vista to wake up to from within, a walk-in dressing room with seemingly-endless robe and storage space and a sumptuous fully-tiled ensuite – bubbling spa bath, shower, toilet, heat lamps, twin “his and hers” stone vanities, under-bench storage and all.
The word “convenient” is an understatement here as far as this exemplary property’s outstanding location is concerned, with a bus stop right on your doorstep accompanied by walking-distance proximity to Takari Primary School, Balcatta Senior High School, lush local parklands, the buzzing Main Street café and restaurant precinct and Primewest Northlands Plaza Shopping Centre. The likes of more shopping at the new Roselea complex, Stirling Central, Westfield Innaloo and the new-look Karrinyup hub, the freeway, the coast, the city and the popular Subiaco and Leederville café and entertainment strips are also situated only minutes away in their own right. This is luxury living at its very best – just you wait and see!
