Tranquilly tucked away between a side-access gate off Beatrice Street and the privacy of Benson Lane at the rear, this impeccably-presented 4 bedroom 2 bathroom two-storey residence is surprisingly comfortable on the inside and will pleasantly surprise you with its city glimpses and tree-lined inland views from up top.
A wraparound bull-nose verandah and a sunken "front" courtyard with a shade sail and deck allow you to relax and sit quietly without a worry in the world, accessible via a single gate from the laneway. Your own remote-controlled double lock-up garage can also be accessed from here - side storage patio, internal shopper's entry and all.
The garage also has gated access of its own, both to the courtyard and to a lovely side patio and outdoor-entertaining deck - complete with a lock-up storeroom with a light. The alfresco and deck seamlessly connect with a spacious open-plan family, dining and modern-kitchen area where a ceiling fan and stylish light fittings meet sparkling stone bench tops, glass splashbacks, a breakfast bar for casual meals, double sinks, wine racking and an appliance nook. Amongst the quality appliances here are a stainless-steel Blanco range hood, a Baumatic five-burner gas cooktop, a separate oven of the same brand, an integrated LG dishwasher and an AEG Electrolux Favorit stainless-steel dishwasher.
Gorgeous double French doors link the main living zone to a welcoming formal front lounge room with a gas bayonet for heating, custom display shelving and easy verandah and courtyard access. Also downstairs is a carpeted front master-bedroom suite that is large in size and plays host to full-height built-in wardrobes, a ceiling fan and a fully-tiled and renovated ensuite bathroom - walk-in rain shower (with a second hose head), vanity and all. There is also a powder room on the ground floor, separate from the practical laundry.
Upstairs, a study nook doubles as a multi-person work station with a built-in desk, servicing the minor sleeping quarters. The pick of these bedrooms is a huge second or "guest" bedroom suite with two sets of built-in robes, a leafy outlook - and city aspect - to wake up to and semi-ensuite access through to a delightful main bathroom where a separate bath and shower will help cater for everybody's personal needs.
Walk to food and coffee on both Scarborough Beach Road and Sackville Terrace, with bus stops, lush local parks, St Dominic's Primary School down the road, the International School of Western Australia, beautiful Scarborough Beach and the exciting multi-million-dollar Karrinyup Shopping Centre redevelopment just minutes away in various directions. A very close proximity to the freeway, Stirling Train Station, more shopping at Primewest Gwelup and Westfield Innaloo, Churchlands Senior High School, Hale School, Newman College and St Mary's Anglican Girls' School should not be underestimated, either. Contemporary convenience near the coast? Yes, please!
