Forever Family Home: Luxury, Privacy & Timeless Elegance

On a leafy streetscape rising up from the river, this is a remarkable family home of grace and grandeur. Designed by renowned architect Philippa Mowbray, every detail speaks to quiet luxury of the highest standard: natural textures, floods of northern light and airy spaces that flow effortlessly between serene gardens. From the classic exterior to the private landscaped grounds manicured to perfection, it's timeless design in the heart of Peppermint Grove.

The entrance is magnificent. Through the stone portico, imported French doors reveal a soaring double-height void lit by a statement chandelier. A wrought-iron staircase curves above, with floors of travertine and dark stained solid wood below, leading to a formal living area - complete with marble gas fireplace - and a versatile study or media room. A butler's pantry with integrated wine fridges connects to a guest bathroom, while opposite, the large laundry is equipped for busy family life: laundry chute, built-in 'mudroom' cabinetry to stash the school bags, and external access to a drying court with an outdoor shower.

The heart of the home is exquisite. A series of French doors and bi-folds bring the outdoors in, with private green outlooks everywhere, while a French chandelier distinguishes the formal dining from a second living area warmed by a modern gas fireplace. The chic kitchen is a vision of elegance: shaker-style cabinetry, shimmering mosaic splashback, instant hot tap, large central island, and a suite of Miele appliances integrated into the sleek design.

Facing north, bi-folds extend the kitchen to a sheltered alfresco and gorgeous, private garden setting - iceberg roses, jasmine, ivy, ornamental pears, bay trees and more - including raised veggie beds for the keen gardener. A sunny patio space is perfect for lazy long lunches, while the kids splash in the solar-heated pool, with a vine-covered rotunda nearby and a powered garden shed tucked into the corner of the backyard.

Upstairs is simply serene. Spacious bedrooms offer wonderful flexibility - one facing south enjoying lovely garden outlooks, another easily utilised as a separate living area or TV room, and two more featuring built-in robes - including one with a built-in desk. A drop-down attic in the hallway provides clever additional storage, with even more in the luxurious family bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath. The master suite is a resplendent retreat: private Juliet balcony, walk-through robe, and a dual-vanity ensuite finished in travertine.

Completing this light-filled sanctuary is ducted heating and cooling and a double garage with extra driveway parking. Secure gates enclose the front garden, with keypad pedestrian access and automated driveway gates, making it perfect for kids and pets.

Nestled within the finest riverside setting, this is a forever family home in every sense of the word. Stroll to the Swan at the end of your street, or to leafy parklands and beaches nearby, with easy access to Perth's prestigious private schools and every lifestyle amenity.
