Sitting pretty on a stunning corner block opposite St Columba’s Catholic Primary School and within walking distance of sprawling Sir James Mitchell Park alongside our picturesque Swan River, this enchanting 4 bedroom 3 bathroom family home know as Waterloo is essentially a 3 bed 2 bath abode with a separate 1x1 “granny flat” and ample living, entertainment and parking options that will leave you in absolute awe.
The near-century-old residence’s upper-level entry porch leads you into a spacious formal lounge room with both double and single doors, as well as a feature fireplace for ambience. The latter is framed by the sleeping quarters, where all three main bedrooms are massive in their proportions.
The largest of them all is a grand master suite with three sets of built-in wardrobes, as well as a sublime double-door ensuite bathroom, comprising of a corner shower, a separate free-standing claw-foot bathtub and central twin “his and hers” vanity basins. The generous second bedroom has built-in robes on either side of its own fireplace, whilst the separate second/family bathroom is made up of a corner shower, toilet and powder vanity – adjacent to a linen press and a cleverly-concealed European-style laundry, hidden behind folding doors.
An expansive open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is where most of your casual time will be spent, with two double doors – and a separate single door – extending entertaining out on to a delightful wraparound balcony deck. The functional renovated kitchen itself plays host to a double-door storage pantry, sparkling granite bench tops, an island breakfast bar, an appliance nook, a microwave recess, glass splashbacks, a stainless-steel Miele dishwasher, a stainless-steel Qasair range hood and matching stainless-steel gas-cooktop and oven appliances. On the other side of the house, further decked outdoor alfresco entertaining just happens to be on offer, right beside a shimmering below-ground swimming pool.
Downstairs, you will discover a massive cellar, a giant workshop with storage (underneath the balcony) and a separate external storeroom, also under the balcony. A mammoth remote-controlled lock-up five-car garage is a vehicle collector’s dream and features another storeroom. Above it, the extra granny-flat accommodation will cater for the needs of investors and multi-generational families alike with its open-plan living, eating and kitchen area, a decent fourth bedroom with a walk-in robe and a connecting ensuite/third bathroom – complete with a vanity, corner shower and toilet.
Easy access to the buzzing South Perth foreshore precinct is accompanied by this very special home taking full advantage of a very close proximity to the ever-popular Angelo Street food, coffee and shopping strip, South Perth Primary School, Wesley College, bus stops, sprawling community parklands, other cafes and eateries, the magnificent Mends Street Jetty, Perth Zoo, golf courses, other excellent schools and a whole lot more.
