Vintage Vista with City Views
This stunning property is located at the end of a cul-de-sac and offers breathtaking city views from its elevated position. Built in 1972, the original double brick and tile structure by Bourke & Gaynor has a hardiplank second storey which houses a fantastic games room. The first floor features a lounge with sliding doors that open up to a spacious deck, perfect for summer barbecues, with uninterrupted views of the Perth CBD and a below ground pool as a stunning backdrop. For the colder months, there is a large slow combustion wood heater in the lounge with cathedral ceilings and a feature clinker brick surrounding the wood heater creating a thermal mass wall generating heat.
The kitchen is separate with ample storage, modern glass splashback, granite benchtops, a double oven and electric cooktop, and again offers stunning city views. There is also a dining room/family room adjacent to the kitchen which also boasts fantastic views through sliding doors of the garden and city. The owners have mentioned that the brick wall between the kitchen and family room could be removed (with a consultation from a builder) for a more open plan kitchen, should the new owners prefer.
The passage leads to three minor bedrooms, all with built-in robes, while the master bedroom with walk-in-robe and ensuite is located on a lower level with cathedral ceilings, stunning views, and a view onto the garden this could be changed to a door for accessing the garden.
This vintage property is a rare gem and has only had one owner since it was built in 1972. The upstairs games room, with a full-size billiard table, built-in bar, and built-in fish tank, is perfect for hosting social occasions and boasts front windows that look directly at Perth CBD.
The outdoors is a well-established layered native garden with a secret garden path, potting house/shade house, a large fibreglass pool, and an enclosed brick paved front yard area. Additionally, there is room for three cars in the carport and a double garage/workshop with a pit for the mechanically minded.
Other features include soaring cathedral ceilings, solid jarrah doorframes and skirtings, a generous sized family bathroom with clawfoot bath and separate shower, a Narnia garden with many nooks and crannies to explore, 6.5kW solar panels, gas hot water system with connection to mains gas. This property truly offers the ultimate combination of location, vintage charm and modern comfort.
