What we love
Privately positioned to the rear, this quality 3 bedroom 2 bathroom two-storey residence not only offers you contemporary comfort, but also a low-maintenance “lock-up-and-leave” lifestyle. Downstairs, a huge formal lounge room is carpeted, has a feature HeatGlo gas log fireplace and gorgeous double French doors. A large tiled open-plan family, dining and kitchen area is where most of your casual time will be spent – with a gas bayonet and a built-in wooden media cabinet neighbouring an impeccably-renovated kitchen that oozes modern class through its sparkling stone bench tops, mirrored splashbacks, double sinks, a pull-out pantry and a series of top-end Miele appliances, inclusive of an integrated fridge/freezer combination, a range hood, integrated dishwasher, microwave, warmer, 900mm-wide oven and 900mm-wide induction hotplate.
Upstairs, the sleeping quarters are serviced by a large third living area that doubles as a versatile study with access out on to the front balcony, where a ceiling fan accompanies sweeping tree-lined views towards the eye-catching Perth city skyline. The city, inland and treetop vista is also prevalent from within a massive master-bedroom suite that enjoys double-French-door balcony access, as well as its own fan, a fitted walk-in wardrobe with a laundry chute to the ground floor and a deluxe ensuite bathroom – complete with a walk-in ceiling-mounted rain shower, a bonus hose shower attachment, heat lamps, twin “his and hers” vanities and access through to the two-way toilet, off the main bathroom. The best is saved until last though, with a heated plunge pool allowing you to take a dip across most of the year – a tranquil oasis of an outdoor setting complemented by a fabulous entertaining alfresco off the family room, complete with its own gas heater for those chilly winter months ahead.
What to know
The carpeted second and third bedrooms up top both have built-in double robes and benefit from splendid window outlooks. A light and bright secondary bathroom has a separate bath, shower and heat lamps. Back on the ground floor, you will also find a powder room, an under-stair storeroom and a functional laundry with a broom cupboard, under-bench storage, a water filter, a bonus fridge recess, a massive full-height four-door sliding linen press and external access for drying. Extras include ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, an alarm system, ducted vacuuming, extra-height doors, a gas hot-water system, a small turfed area, reticulated gardens, rear lemon and lime trees, a side-access gate and a lockable double storage cupboard in the garage – plus roller-door access to the back of the property.
In terms of location, a plethora of parks and playgrounds can be found nearby – including the picturesque Lake Gwelup Reserve, whilst the amazing new-look Karrinyup Shopping Centre, Karrinyup Primary School, Karrinyup Library, bus stops, restaurants, Our Lady of Good Counsel School and even the prestigious Lake Karrinyup Country Club are all only walking distance away in their own right. You will also fully appreciate the very close proximity to other top schools – St Mary’s, Hale and Newman College included, the freeway, Stirling Train Station, Hamersley Public Golf Course and glorious swimming beaches. What a wonderful place to call home.

Karrinyup is a mixed-use residential and commercial suburb. The name Karrinyup was originally derived from the word Careniup, a Noongar name for a nearby swamp, which means "the place where bush kangaroos graze". Major development of Karrinyup began in 1957 and continued for a number of decades resulting in a variant range of dwelling and home styles reflective of the eras they were originally built in.
Karrinyup's commercial focus revolves around the Karrinyup Shopping Centre, which is home to a host of retail shops and amenities that service both locals and visitors alike. Parks and reserves are another notable feature within the suburb, which includes both public and private golf courses for locals to enjoy. There are also several schools, recreational facilities, a community centre and a library.
