Absolutely Perfect
This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home is the complete package.
A jarrah weatherboard workers' cottage originally built in 1921, it has been extended, completely renovated and beautifully respected by the current owners to provide quintessential modern Western Australian living.
Where the temptation is to do more, this renovation has showed restraint and respect for the original home. The home has retained its character credentials, but has stepped up to showcase the best of modern living.
The white on white styling doesn't overwhelm the simplicity of the home's practical strengths. Light filled living, high ceilings and a seamless relationship from inside living to the large back deck and landscaped backyard.
Boasting all the "I wants" this beautifully located home is so close to the beating heart of the East Vic Park foodie hub. Wake up, roll down the road and your favourite coffee shop will remember your order (Green Bunch is a great option, although you really are spoilt for choice!). Restaurants, gastro pubs and niche retail abound.
The hero of this home is of course the Shaker styled kitchen cabinetry complete with stone tops. Loads of space, loads of storage, feature lighting, a 900mm stainless steel freestanding cooker, walk in pantry and a phenomenally clever servery window to the back deck make a beating heart for this home. Feed the troops, entertain, or just enjoy tea and toast.
The master bedroom features a generous walk through robe (with built in drawers, shelves and hanging space) and a beautifully appointed ensuite bathroom, with rain-head shower, a practical vanity with plenty of storage (6 drawers), stone bench top and porcelain basin (just a tip, check out the bathroom cornices, amazing!).
The other two bedrooms are both well proportioned, with bedroom 1 complete with a wall of built in storage and bedroom 2 has the original feature fireplace.
The main bathroom is light and bright, taking up the footprint of a whole bedroom from the original home. With a deep bath for long luxuriating soaks, a separate large shower stall hidden cleverly behind a nib wall, and the mosaic floors are a real show stopper.
Everything is done.
Move in.
Relax.
Imagine summer on the back deck.
