195 Walcott Street, Mount Lawley WA 6050

Charming Versatility in All of its Glory

Rear property with plenty of parking

A sense of tranquility and convenience pervades this gorgeous, character-laden 3 bedroom 2 bathroom century-old home that is privately positioned to the rear and offers a multitude of flexible living and entertainment options - as well as ample driveway parking space behind your very own access gate, right away from Walcott Street.

The property is currently owned by an interior designer, has been stylishly inspired by their creative genius and is ready to move into right away. It has also been impeccably presented and immaculately maintained over the years, with the potential to also split it into two separate residences for either Airbnb/rental purposes, a home office or multi-generational family living. The front house essentially becomes a 2 bed 1 bath dwelling, with the separate 1x1 downstairs boasting its own side access for good measure.

For now though, this impressively-renovated gem can be your own fully-functional 3 bed 2 bath sanctuary where most of the nostalgia of yesteryear remains firmly intact - solid wooden floorboards, soaring high ceilings, feature cornices, tall skirting boards, decorative ceiling roses and all. Subtly understated from a delightful frontage, an unassuming upper level plays host to a welcoming front lounge room that is large in size and comprises of a gas-bayonet fireplace, custom cabinetry either side and a ceiling fan. It also leads through to a study nook that eventually flows into the dining area and a second sitting area with a feature angled ceiling, as well as more custom built-in cabinetry - and plenty of it.

The central kitchen has been cleverly renovated to a high standard to include sparkling marble stone bench tops, quality tap fittings, funky tiled splashbacks and Louis Poulsen feature lighting, loads of extra storage space, a five-burner stainless-steel Ariston gas cooktop/oven and a stainless-steel dishwasher of the same brand. A huge master bedroom can also be found on this floor and has a ceiling fan and an over-sized walk-in wardrobe, whilst the spacious adjacent second bedroom also has robes and modern light fittings. An exquisite bathroom features Caesarstone bench tops, and storage options, a bespoke Fenex floating vanity, a toilet, Muzu rain shower, additional shower-hose head and more. The upper level of the house is equipped with ducted reverse cycle air conditioning allowing for the upmost comfort all year round.

Downstairs, the external third bedroom comes complete with shelving and split-system air-conditioning. The adjacent laundry/kitchenette/second bathroom has a rain shower and even more storage, catering for everybody's personal needs at the same time. There is also a breakfast bar off here, under the wraparound alfresco.

The alfresco is one of three separate outdoor-entertaining areas out back, sitting alongside a sunken paved courtyard that is pleasantly overlooked by a spacious and elevated rear deck. Most of your entertaining will undoubtedly happen right here. Also outside are a separate toilet, a massive lock-up storeroom with extra storage space and an under-cover clothesline.

Don't forget about the seemingly-endless parking space out front too, for up to six cars. A remote-controlled driveway gate not only completes this exceptional package, but offers peace of mind too.

In terms of location, it doesn't get any more central and convenient than this - with the likes of bus stops, cafes, restaurants, bars, shopping, top schools and lush local parklands all only a matter of minutes away from your front doorstep. From the vibrant Beaufort Street precinct to North Perth, Mount Hawthorn, Leederville, Subiaco, Highgate, Northbridge and even the boutiques and designer stores of the buzzing Perth CBD, nothing will be too far from home. Something special truly does await you here - come and see it all for yourself!
