Ray White Dalkeith | Claremont
Elegant. Articulate. Refined.
In the storied heart of Dalkeith, where heritage and pedigree breathe through tree-lined streets, stands a magnificent five-bedroom, three-bathroom home of charm and finesse. This circa 1930 gem, meticulously restored and extended, tips its hat to the artisan trades of the past. With a keen eye for contemporary luxury and standing proud on a naturally elevated quarter-acre block, this residence serves as a sanctuary of sophisticated living, where the echoes of yesteryear meet the polished comforts of tomorrow.
While the scale and presentation of the home are impressive, its position and what it offers are formidable. Its character-laden interior, blessed with superb period detailing from floor to ceiling, celebrates a long history of cherished family moments. Introduced by a polished timber hallway, the front of the home features a large street-facing study and a guest suite with an ensuite bathroom and built-in robes. Moving through the wide hallway to the second family living, one's gaze is immediately drawn to the spectacular ceiling detail, wide cornice profiles, and elegant architraves. Passing into the main kitchen, living, and dining area, the home really comes into its own. Extended full-height ceilings, large north-facing sash windows line the space, casting abundant natural light deep into every corner. The classic white cabinetry, gold hardware, and sublime stone tops set the scene for endless culinary adventures and hours upon hours of family banter. A centrepiece 1.5m commercial-grade Ilve double oven and six gas burners occupy pride of place on the line. With the capacity to entertain at scale, the wide double undermount sink, cleverly fitted pantry storage, and impressive amounts of custom cabinetry complete what is a highly functional production hub.
Upstairs, the stunning two-turn jarrah staircase is wrapped in fresh white timber balustrading and accented with both wall-mounted and pendant lighting. Here, each of the three bedrooms offers a private oasis of calm, appointed with the finest touches. The master suite, a lavish affair, boasts a spacious walk-in robe and a sumptuous 'hotel-inspired' ensuite, where large-format travertine tiles wrap the walls in true luxury. With soft ambient light and views out across the upstairs balcony to Perth's CBD, relaxation here is elevated to an art form.
Teddy Bear Magnolias line the lush green lawns adjacent to the large family-sized heated pool, while meticulously planned landscape design decorates each space with intent. The elevation and valley outlook provide the perfect backdrop while the northern aspect of the living spaces, alfresco, and veranda benefits from maximum winter sunshine.
The future is bright for such a prized asset on an exceptionally sought-after street. Close to Waratah Avenue shopping and dining precinct and easy private school or CBD access, this residence enjoys all the family lifestyle benefits this location is renowned for.
