This fabulous family home overlooks a quiet park and is the epitome of gracious style! It's a magnificent blend of romantic style and luxurious space that offers an enviable lifestyle. Leafy wisteria climbs up the white verandas and makes this stately home feel like it's been here forever.
It's an idyllic home with classic character: from the twin chimneys reaching for the sky to the impeccable interior style, this contemporary home has all the modern luxuries and requirements that a busy modern family needs to be able to relax and enjoy life.
The extremely spacious living areas have wonderful separation and are perfect for entertaining, whether it be a black tie cocktail party or kids playing Marco Polo in the pool. A big fireplace adds a cosy ambience in the very spacious family living room, which has a fabulous outlook to the park and a bespoke spiral staircase to an underground wine cellar.
Open the doors from the main living areas to the private courtyard and step outside to enjoy laidback alfresco dining. The courtyard is a highlight of this unique home, with beautiful travertine floors, neat gardens and Vergola roof louvre system.
The sophisticated gourmet kitchen is packed with quality appliances and has a breakfast bar and server benches which work brilliantly to smooth out the pace of daily life. The open plan dining area is perfectly placed to bring the family together.
The bright formal living room has French doors out to the pool and high doors to the adjacent lounge/playroom. There's so much space! Relax in the quiet sanctuary of the swimming pool courtyard, which has manicured easy-care gardens which create a 'secret garden' ambience.
The beautiful blonde parquetry timber floors and high ceilings throughout the downstairs living areas add to the sense of elegance. High doors, bay windows and travertine detailing are the sorts of touches that make this special home unique.
The extensive main bedroom has peaceful park views, a large fitted dressing room and luxe ensuite. There are 4 large bedrooms with built in robes, of which two share a chic ensuite, plus a third bathroom. All the bathrooms have top quality fittings and timeless travertine tiling.
A loft on the top floor offers a chill out space for teens or a quiet hobby room, and there is a laundry, drying and utilities alley, double garage with storage space, understair storage, guest powder room and a wrap around balcony which is shaded by fragrant vines.
This imposing home is on a corner block overlooking quiet MacLagan Park. Walk to Cresswell Park, Claremont Lake, Scotch College and Swanbourne Primary. It's a 2min walk to the Swanbourne shops and train station, and close to wonderful beaches, Claremont Quarter and Cottesloe Golf Club.
