Built in 1981, this charming group of townhouses feature solid double brick builds with split level layouts and high ceilings. Tucked back from the road amidst leafy gardens, this home has an immediate feeling of privacy and retreat, with one of its delightful features being multiple outdoor spaces. A painted timber gate opens to the walled, paved front garden, scented by frangipani; an ideal spot for relaxing over a sunset drink with friends.
An original carved timber entry door opens onto a foyer with wide oak floorboards. To the right is the lovely main bedroom with walk-in robe. Lie in bed and listen to the birds - this room opens directly onto the front garden.
The clever split-level design of the house means its central staircase receives natural light all day long, while a sense of connection flows through all the spaces, which can be cross-ventilated by sea breezes.
The top floor encompasses a stunning airy and spacious family room with raked ceilings and white-painted timber beams. The balcony offers views from this elevated spot that stretch across to the ocean and Rottnest. There is even a glimpse of the river. Balcony blinds block direct sun when needed. The family room has custom-made, built-in cabinetry with rattan doors, and a central heater.
The middle level holds the kitchen and dining. Oak floors complement the coastal-inspired kitchen with timber benchtops, good amount of benchtop and storage space, four burner gas cooktop and dishwasher.
The dining connects to a charming paved outdoor space of its own set beside a huge and very productive lemon tree - a perfect spot for waking over a coffee in the morning. Beneath is a third courtyard with drying line and lush gardens that make yet another little hideaway. A double tandem garage offers access to the back courtyard. There is plenty of street parking for guests and easy proximity to bus routes, with a bus stop right on Parker Street itself.

There is a laundry close by with a separate toilet, as well as a powder room off the landing.
