THE DEAL
Positioned on a substantial 1,138sqm landholding in one of Mount Lawley’s most tightly held pockets, this meticulously restored residence presents a considered balance of period character and contemporary living. Set behind secure gates and framed by landscaped Californian-inspired gardens, the home offers a private and expansive family environment with a clear emphasis on space, flexibility, and lifestyle.
Behind its elegant 1920s façade, original architectural features have been carefully preserved, including leadlight windows, stained glass, intricate ceiling detailing, and timber fretwork. A light-filled entry foyer introduces the home and leads through to a formal lounge of generous proportions, while adjacent rooms at the front of the home provide well-appointed secondary bedrooms, enhanced by bespoke cabinetry and access to two refined bathrooms, including an ensuite.
The floor plan has been designed to accommodate a range of living arrangements, offering three distinct living zones that remain connected yet allow for separation when required. A formal dining room positioned at the front of the home provides versatility as either an entertaining space or a private home office, with convenient access to a powder room.
To the rear, the home opens into a substantial contemporary living and entertaining domain, where natural light and scale define the space. A glass-wrapped meals area connects seamlessly to expansive decking via bi-fold doors, overlooking a heated below-ground pool and established gardens. The kitchen has been designed for both everyday use and larger gatherings, centred around stone island benches and supported by stunning cabinetry and quality stainless steel appliances.
The outdoor environment has been carefully curated to offer both visual impact and practicality, with low-maintenance plantings including cactus, palms and mature feature trees creating a defined yet relaxed setting around the alfresco and pool. This area provides multiple zones for entertaining, relaxation and family use throughout the year.
Upstairs, the master suite is positioned as a private retreat, accessed via a grand jarrah staircase. It includes a walk-in wardrobe and a well-appointed ensuite featuring a freestanding bath and refined finishes. A fourth bedroom on the ground floor, also fitted with bespoke cabinetry, provides additional accommodation flexibility.
A notable inclusion is the fully self-contained lower-level apartment, complete with kitchenette, powder room, and adjoining cellar. This space offers a high degree of adaptability, suitable for independent living, guest accommodation, a home office, studio, or gym. Additional below-ground storage further enhances the home’s practicality.
Modern inclusions such as reverse cycle air conditioning, integrated sound, security features, and plantation shutters ensure day-to-day comfort aligns with the home’s architectural integrity. Located within walking distance to Hamer Park Reserve and moments from the cafés, dining and retail of Beaufort Street, the address combines convenience with a well-established residential setting.
