A Character Beauty with Contemporary Style
Timeless character meets modern sophistication in the form of this spectacular 3 bedroom 2 bathroom street-front home that has been fully renovated to perfection, offering the best of both worlds - classic architectural details, paired with sleek contemporary finishes.
With its unbeatable curb appeal and impeccably-crafted interior, this special residence seamlessly blends historic elegance with quality living, creating a single-level haven that's as stylish as it is functional. It possesses an amazing location too, stunningly situated in between the iconic majesty of Kings Park and picturesque Jualbup Lake at beautiful Shenton Park in the opposite direction.
Inside, a huge front lounge room, with feature gas fireplace, opens out to the delightful entry verandah via double doors, much like the spacious master-bedroom suite on the other side of the welcoming foyer. The latter is also graced by split-system air-conditioning and a brand-new fully-tiled ensuite bathroom - floating porcelain vanity, rain/hose shower, toilet and all.
Similar specifications pervade the fully-tiled second bathroom, where a walk-in rain/hose shower, a floating porcelain vanity and another toilet can be found. Two bedrooms are carpeted for comfort, with exquisite engineered oak floorboards dominating the hub of the house.
A massive central kitchen features classy porcelain bench tops and splashbacks, whilst also playing host to a breakfast bar, a Whirlpool dishwasher, a new integrated range hood, a new Fisher and Paykel gas cooktop, a Technika under-bench oven and a cleverly-concealed European-style laundry. It all overlooks the spacious dining room and its high raked ceilings, split-system air-conditioner and double-door access out to a generous rear full-width entertaining courtyard that is brilliant in its privacy and equally picturesque.
A short stroll around the corner to Wholefood Circus, Vintage Cellars and more along Nicholson Road is complemented by Shenton Park Train Station, the local 24-hour Good Grocer IGA supermarket, cafes, restaurants, bus stops (including the free Purple CAT bus) and even the Perth CBD, the river and Elizabeth Quay on the other side of Kings Park all being so easily accessible.
This property is also perched within the sought-after Rosalie Primary School and Shenton College catchment zones, whilst the likes of Subiaco, Nedlands, Claremont and Cottesloe Beach are very much within arm's reach. Ready to move into right away and conveniently located for good measure, this character gem truly does provide down-sizers - and families - with the best of everything!
