MID CENTURY MASTERPIECE
THE FEATURES YOU WILL LOVE
One of Floreat’s finest examples of mid-century architecture is on display within the confines of one of the leafy suburb’s most sought-after pockets.The home itself was privately commissioned by a local businessman in the 1950s as the Post War era ushered in bold new designs with open plan living areas and excellent use of natural light. Guests are welcomed to a home that is understated yet at the same time assured. A large size living area provides a serene setting for formal occasions as well as lazy days. The recently renovated kitchen seamlessly blends the convenience of modern luxury without losing the authenticity of the original design. Features include stone benchtops, a large walk-in pantry as well as a 900mm European oven. The home features incredibly rare vintage glasswork throughout while the proportions of the master and secondary bedrooms is amazing. A renovated bathroom and delightful dining area round out this classic abode though nest seekers looking to expand will relish the opportunity to ‘go up’ or extend to the rear.
THE LIFESTYLE YOU WILL LIVE
Set high atop Athlone Road, the home commands a beautiful panorama to the east, filled with the treescapes and natural environment that characterise this ‘in demand’ western suburb. The new owners will enjoy walking proximity to Floreat Park Primary and the amenity of the Floreat Forum beyond. The property falls within the Shenton College catchment while provides convenient access to many of Perth’s well regarded private schools. The broader area boasts an embarrassment of riches when it comes to parkland and open spaces including Maclean Park, Bold Park, Cambridge Croquet and Lawn Bowls Club and the Floreat Park Tennis Club. The world class Wembley Golf Course is only a par 4 away to the east and there is even a lovely local park just metres away at the end of the road. Locals love the quick trips to Floreat and City Beaches while the CBD is easily accessed without tackling the freeway. A suburban dream-like lifestyle awaits.
