Family Perfection
Combining 1930’s character charm with a timeless renovation, this elegant four bedroom home boasts immeasurable street appeal, an ideal floorplan for families and a fabulous north facing outdoor entertaining space - all set within a tightly held Wembley location.
Enclosed by a charming picket fence, the established front gardens provide a relaxed and peaceful sanctuary, while the elevated front verandah offers a grand welcome to this graceful home.
Inside, the front section of the property is devoted to parents. A wide entrance hallway leads on one side to an elegant formal living room with original timber cabinetry, leadlight windows, a cosy fireplace and high, decorative ceilings. To the other side of the hallway, sits the equally character-filled master bedroom, complete with built-in robe and ensuite bathroom. An adjacent study or fourth bedroom would make an ideal nursery for younger children.
Beyond these original rooms, this delightful property opens out into a contemporary family home, with a country-style kitchen, dining and living areas, flowing through French doors onto a shady alfresco space. Bathed in year-round natural light, the open plan family zone faithfully replicates the high ceilings, timber architraves, skirtings and doors of the original home, while providing a modern and seamless transition from indoors to out.
Extending from the dining area is a separate childrens’ wing of two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, separate toilet and a large laundry.
Outside, the generous back garden provides ample lawn for kids to play while parents can keep a close eye on them in the solar heated pool from the sheltered alfresco area. A freestanding workshop at the rear is equipped with electricity and plumbing and offers the potential of a private office or home studio.
Located on a family-friendly, tree-lined street, this lovely home sits in the midst of a fantastic neighbourhood, walking distance to Wembley Primary School and a range of local eateries and shops on Cambridge Street. It’s a short bus ride to the city, while Lake Monger, the freeway entrance and Floreat and City Beaches are all within easy reach.
