Charming and character-filled, this beautifully renovated Nedlands residence is deceptively spacious and ready to welcome new owners. Perfectly positioned for professionals based at the hospital precinct, UWA and surrounds, it's a stone's throw from Kings Park, West Perth, Subiaco and the banks of the Swan River.
Framed by a white timber fence and entry gate, a double secure carport and pretty scented gardens brimming with spring foliage, you'll feel instantly 'at home'. Lavender, jasmine, cherry blossom, wisteria and privacy hedging surround a lovely sunny courtyard, perfect for enjoying an afternoon drink or two.
Step inside and fall in love with the soaring ceilings, original jarrah floorboards and striking stained glass windows. At the front of the home, you'll find a separate lounge/activity room with rattan light pendants, and a guest bedroom with built-in robes, a decorative fireplace and shuttered doors opening out to the front terrace. Its separate entrance may also suit home-based professionals.
The generous main suite branches off the central hallway, and includes a vaulted ceiling, triple mirrored robes, plantation shutters and a recently renovated ensuite with a frameless shower, deep tub and floating vanity.
Remodelled in 2021, the deluxe kitchen is an entertainer's dream, bathed in natural light beneath the Velux skylight. Here you'll find Bosch appliances, including a dishwasher, electric wall oven and 5-burner gas cooktop, Caesar stone benchtops and subway-tiled splashbacks. There's plenty of cabinetry above and below the bench, with soft-closing drawers and a customised pantry.
Across the hall, the contemporary combined family bathroom/laundry includes a stone-topped vanity, frameless shower, WC and space beneath the bench for your washer and dryer. Step down to the tiled open plan living and dining area, sprawled beneath a soaring vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. Glass sliding doors lead outdoors to the cedar-lined alfresco, and nearby, bedrooms three and four have raked ceilings, roller blinds and floor-to-ceiling built-in robes.
Outside, olive and snow pear trees line the home's northern boundary, with a screen of magnolias framing the inviting saltwater swimming pool, which was only recently resurfaced. The section of lawn is the ideal size for a trampoline, game of bocce, or playing fetch with your four-legged friend.
Located in the Shenton College intake area and a stroll/cycle to Hollywood Primary School, this home is also well-positioned for several sought-after schools such as Perth Modern, Christ Church Grammar, Methodist Ladies College and Scotch College. Moments from the spectacular wildflowers at Kings Park, local restaurants and cafes, and scenic walks to Matilda Bay, you'll soon be enjoying an enviable western suburbs lifestyle!
