Timeless Federation-Style Home

Live in a light-filled, timeless home on one of Subiaco's prettiest and most family-friendly streets, walking distance to all the best this prestigious area offers.

Nestled on leafy Hamersley Road amidst some of Subiaco's most beautiful heritage homes and modern architecture, this lovely two-storey house offers an exciting opportunity for a family, professional couple or retirees to enjoy this versatile home and dream location.

Here you are just moments away from Subiaco Arts Centre, the Subiaco Theatre Gardens, Subi Farmers Market, Evelyn H Parker Library and Subiaco Primary School. The home is an easy stroll to Rokeby Road, Kings Park and Botanic Garden, Daglish Train Station and close to local cafes, restaurants, shops and hospitals. Near multiple primary schools, the house also offers easy access to high schools Perth Modern, John XXIII College and Bob Hawke College.

At first glance, this brick home looks as if it could have been built a century ago. Set beyond traditional walled gardens, it catches the eye with beautiful bay windows, traditional Federation-style elevation and charming bullnose front veranda entwined in wisteria. In fact, the home was built in 1999, making it ideal for people who love older character homes but don't want the upkeep.

A delightful leadlight entry door opens onto a wide entry hall. Fresh white walls complement beautiful polished timber floors, high ceilings with classic cornices and abundance of natural light.

A spacious open-plan family room and formal dining is an inviting space with a Regency gas fireplace, built-in jarrah shelves and bay window overlooking the front garden.

Down the hall lies the classic kitchen and informal dining. The kitchen has an island bench with breakfast bar seating, generous storage, gas cooktop and Bosch dishwasher. Enjoy the pretty back garden from the sink and keep an eye on kids playing outside. In winter, the gas fireplaces warms the whole room and gives a cosy atmosphere.

Beautiful white-framed windows and doors connect the dining to the decked back patio. On a 491sqm block, there is enough garden for those who love pottering and outdoor entertaining. The garden has rose bushes, lemon and liquidambar trees and sweet-smelling hibbertia and star jasmine. There is an understair storage closet and a nicely appointed laundry with plenty of storage and separate toilet.

There is good separation between bedroom wings. By the front entry is the main bedroom; a beautiful big room with high ceilings, bay window and outlook across the front garden. The nearby bathroom has both a bath and separate shower.

There is another bedroom nearby. This multipurpose room is ideal for a bedroom, home office or additional living room. For those with a baby or young child, it is ideally placed for a nursery or playroom. All four bedrooms have plush new carpeting.

A light-filled stairwell with timber balustrading connects to the upper floor bedroom wing. Light-filled, calming and inviting, these two rooms have sweeping views across the leafy neighbourhood and built-in robes. With a well-appointed family bathroom with bath (and city skyline glimpse) the upper floor is perfect for primary or high school age children, or for guests. There is also a bonus room to this level. Used predominantly for storage, it could also be turned into a teenage hangout space, playroom or lounge.

While this is the sort of location you could easily find yourself leaving the car at home for days on end, there is a single garage and driveway with tandem parking for multiple cars.

If you would love to live in one of Subiaco's most convenient locales, this appealing home could be the one.
