SOLD by Heidi McAtee - Offering the best of both worlds, this lovingly restored character residence encompasses 1685 sqm of living including a sensational below-ground pool and expansive lawns and gardens that meander to the waters edge. This exclusive location offers a rich lifestyle opportunity - somewhat akin to country living with expansive natureland views and feeling seemingly away from it all, yet conveniently close to the things that matter most. This is a prime location with Guildford Grammar, Woodbridge Primary and the Train all within easy walking.
Framed behind its white picket fence and gorgeous landscaping, this impressive residence is meticulously appointed and showcases exquisite tuckpointing to its front façade, together with five sets of elegant French doors that provide access to various verandah elevations. There is splendour and brilliance in the various displays of magnificent leadlight throughout the home accompanied by ornate traditional fireplaces, high ceilings, sash windows, jarrah floorboards and many traditional features from yesteryear.
This breathtaking setting is guaranteed to impress all who view with its landscape providing the ambiance for garden parties and special gatherings, entertaining family and friends on the verandah or games patio, pool birthday party celebrations for the kids (and their entire classrooms), a marquee perhaps for those special milestone events, or simply relax and enjoy the timeless elegance with the everchanging colours of the seasons.
This esteemed location offers easy walking to Woodbridge Train Station (20 mins to Perth CBD) and underpass walking connection providing easy access to Guildford and prestigious Guildford Grammar School.
Woodbridge is a historic precinct enjoying early settlement with historic Guildford and both flank the Helena & Swan Rivers and take delight in the Woodbridge Riverside Park & Play Space on the Swan River. Woodbridge is in very close proximity to the new medical & educational hub near the historic railway workshops which includes SJOG Public & Private Hospitals and the NEW Curtin University Medical Campus.
