Stunning Style, Substance and Sophistication

A spectacular transformation sets the scene for this magnificent 4 bedroom 3 bathroom two-storey street-front home that exudes modern quality in every single facet - and sits just footsteps away from our picturesque Swan River, as well as its sprawling foreshore reserve.

A remote-controlled front gate not only adds an extra layer of security and overall peace of mind, but also encloses extra driveway parking space in front of the garage, whilst making the leafy north-facing front yard a safe haven for the young ones at play. Beyond a wide feature entry door and a set of louvers that afford the residence important cross-flow ventilation lies a fourth or "guest" bedroom suite - home to a ceiling fan and a fully-tiled ensuite/third bathroom with a walk-in rain and hose shower, a toilet, a marble vanity and a sense of fantastic accessibility that will suit those with either elder family members or au-pairs.

The wonderful floor-plan separation continues with a large central lounge room that is the perfect place to sit and relax in front of a warming fireplace, before spilling out (via double doors) to a splendid side courtyard and capturing all of that early-morning sunlight with a cup of tea or coffee in hand. Double doors off the lounge lead into a separate study-come-office with its own ceiling fan and bi-fold-door access out to the side garden, doubling as external access for clients if you are running things from home.

Two separate sets of internal bi-fold doors link the lounge to a second family/living room, as well as a stylish open-plan kitchen and dining area that segregates meals from the conversation. There, a double storage pantry, a Bosch Induction-combi hotplate with an integrated range hood, double Bosch ovens and an integrated dishwasher of the same brand will leave any resident chef salivating at the prospect of a sleek and sophisticated workspace.

The laundry sits just off the kitchen and has plenty of custom storage (a linen press and under-stair storeroom amongst it all), as well as a separate fully-tiled toilet and access outside for drying. The dining space also helps bring the outdoors in, with double doors opening out to a rear alfresco verandah that overlooks a tranquil backyard setting - and bi-fold doors seamlessly extending entertaining out to a huge open courtyard with built-in seating and two separate sets of double doors that also allow the family room a slice of the action. There is even a barbecue nook for either your Weber or Ziegler & Brown, but the piece de resistance of it all is an amazing resort-style heated swimming pool at the back of the block - poolside deck and all. Talk about life of the party.

Upstairs, both the second and third bedrooms boast full-height mirrored built-in wardrobes and are serviced by a trendy fully-tiled main family bathroom - filled with plenty of natural light whilst comprising of a deep bath with a showerhead, a toilet and an impressive marble vanity. The sublime master suite is the pick of the sleeping quarters though with its ceiling fan, full-height mirrored built-in robes (all three sliding doors of them) and over-sized fully-tiled ensuite, luxuriously equipped with a rain/hose shower, a toilet and twin "his and hers" vanities. Double doors off this exceptional retreat open out to a covered rear balcony with not only ocean views but a southern tree-lined outlook as well.

The Esplanade may be within arm's reach, but so are the likes of North Cottesloe Primary School, Presbyterian Ladies' College, medical facilities, bus stops and Grant Street Train Station - all only footsteps away in the other direction. The Grove Library and Cottesloe Central Shopping Centre are also nearby, with only a few minutes separating your front doorstep from beautiful Cottesloe Beach and an array of coastal cafes and restaurants - as well as the Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club, the world-class Claremont Quarter Shopping precinct, St Hilda's Anglican School for Girls, Iona Presentation College, Christ Church Grammar School, Scotch College, the Peppermint Grove Tennis Club and even the heart of old Fremantle town. It's not only the residence you have always dreamt of but the lifestyle and location, too!
