Sophisticated Stunning and Stylish!
This immaculate four/five bedroom, two-bathroom Nedlands home merges chic, contemporary features with Hamptons-inspired natural elegance, resulting in a refined aesthetic which simply has to be seen to be believed.
Indeed, the moment you step into this circa 1940s, skilfully extended and modernised character home with its subdued grey and crisp white exterior colour palette, you know you're somewhere special.
Enter via the original front porch into an extensive hallway, featuring stunning porcelain tiles and a welcoming ambience.
Turn right, into a study/ bedroom featuring one of the home's original fireplaces – a beautiful room with decorative cornices and ceiling roses on magnificently high ceilings.
Head through to the master bedroom by first entering a parent's retreat, which could double as a nursery or snug, and which opens into a light-filled bedroom hallmarked by an elegant leadlight window, another original fireplace and the continuation of the home's high, ornate ceilings. A wide and spacious walk-through robe – reminiscent of Carrie's in Sex in the City – leads into an incredibly generous ensuite, replete with a double sink featuring stone benchtops, porcelain tiles and a luxurious bath all in a neutral palette.
A third bedroom accessed via a dual internal entry, features built in robes, ample cupboard space and neutral, quality carpet. This is located next to the home's second well-appointed luxury bathroom, which includes a double sink and generous shower, as well as a classic freestanding bath, timeless in design.
A fourth generously sized bedroom also includes plentiful wardrobes and plantation window shutters.
Step into the vast open plan living/family and kitchen area, with adjacent bespoke dining area, and you are met with a wonderfully light-filled space, designed and appointed to the highest specification. This is the family hub of the home, a generous central area to relax with copious natural light and views of the neat and very private garden.
The modern kitchen is an entertainer's dream, with a large Smegg 6 burner gas stovetop and oven, double stainless steel sink, Miele dishwasher, expansive stone benchtops which also serve as a generous breakfast bar, copious cupboards and room for a large fridge freezer. An adjacent expansive laundry also features as a large scullery with plentiful storage, ample cupboards and pantry space, is also light and bright and incorporates another sink offering views out to the garden.
From the open plan living area, step though the large glass patio doors on to the undercover decked entertaining space which incorporates an outside kitchen replete with a built in BBQ, additional stone benchtops, and a divine outside dining area and relaxation zone - a beautiful feature of the home in which to sit, relax, and enjoy the garden or entertain family and friends.
From the decking area, access a bright and light-filled additional room with stunning timber floors. This has the potential for a myriad of uses – an art studio, additional 5th bedroom, study, home office, gym, teenage retreat or children's playroom!
There is the potential to create a large room upstairs in the vast roof space, currently accessible by retractable stairs and used for storage, this is a very useful addition to the home.
Also encompassing a generous carport with room for two vehicles and a sizeable driveway which can accommodate at least three additional cars, this gorgeously presented, immaculate home offers a golden opportunity to enjoy an enviable lifestyle in one of Perth's most desirable suburbs.
What's more, you'll love having a variety of amenities within easy reach – the coast, river foreshore, proximity to golf clubs, yacht clubs, playing fields, sporting facilities, fine shopping, dining options and excellent schools are all within striking distance.
