A Hidden Coastal Gem!!

Tucked quietly at the rear of an exclusive group of only four, this charming and
wonderfully-comfortable 3/4 bedroom 3 bathroom tri-level townhouse residence proves
that the best things in life are often hidden in plain sight - especially when they come
with breathtaking ocean views and magical west-coast sunsets thrown in for good
measure.
A home of surprising space, warmth and versatility, this delightful haven effortlessly
adapts to the rhythm of family living, executive ease or lock-up-and-leave simplicity,
depending on what chapter life currently has you in. The opportunity to add further
personal and creative touches throughout should not be underestimated, either.

Downstairs, a flexible second lounge, games room or fourth bedroom offers the perfect
"escape plan" - whether that means working from under your own roof, movie nights,
teenagers claiming territory or simply a serene place to pretend you cannot hear anyone
upstairs. This part of the floor plan is large, carpeted for comfort, comprises of a lockable
under-stair storeroom and flows out to a private backyard setting with newly-laid lawn
and a paved north-facing semi-alfresco courtyard where breezy entertaining meets a
splendid sea vista.

Out front, a gated and tiled courtyard terrace - with a pitched gazebo - sits just inches
away from the home's entrance and enjoys its own slice of the sweeping coastal vista at
hand, as a result of a spectacular elevation. It also plays host to café/shade blinds for
protection from the elements and can also be accessed from the tiled foyer, off the
residence's entry level.
The front third bedroom can also be utilised as an office and boasts a remote-controlled
ceiling fan and semi-ensuite access through to a fully-tiled third bathroom with a toilet,
vanity, under-bench storage, a shower and a laundry-access door. The latter plays host to
a double linen press, a broom cupboard and a paved side drying courtyard - with a
clothesline and a hot/cold water outdoor shower.

The headline act of the middle floor is a delightful central living area with a gorgeous log
fireplace recessed into the wall, a character ceiling rose, stylish light fittings and ocean
views from within. It is all overlooked by a spacious, modern and tiled open-plan dining
and kitchen area with sleek stone bench tops, glass splashbacks, double sinks, a water-
filter tap, a storage pantry, a microwave recess, a Westinghouse range hood, a stainless-
steel four-burner gas cooktop, a separate stainless-steel Bosch oven and a sleek white
Dishlex dishwasher. The dining space flows outside to a pleasant L-shaped entertaining
courtyard with its own mesmerising seascape and a gated staircase leading down to the
backyard.

Up top, the second or "guest" bedroom suite is graced by built-in double wardrobes, a
built-in computer desk with storage and shelves, a sublime ocean outlook that
incorporates our famous Rottnest Island in the distance and a fully-tiled ensuite - shower,
toilet, vanity, under-bench storage and all. Double doors reveal the piece de resistance -
an expansive master retreat where split-system air-conditioning and a ceiling fan are
accompanied by a fitted walk-in robe and two separate access doors extending relaxation
out to a large tiled under-cover balcony with an ocean, "Rotto" and sunset panorama like
no other. Completing the package is an exemplary fully-tiled ensuite with a bubbling
corner spa bath, a separate shower, a powder vanity, under-bench storage, a toilet, a sea
aspect to Rottnest and plenty of space for pampering.

Perched just one street back from beautiful Brighton Beach and within walking distance
of the vibrant Scarborough Beach esplanade, this "hidden gem" occupies quite the
location.. The popular Peasholm Street Dog Beach is also nearby, with a handy radius to
sprawling local parklands adding to a very close proximity to another intimate beach
between Brighton and the dog beach, top public and private schools, public-transport
options (including the new local Surf CAT), the buzzing Doric Street food and coffee
precinct, shopping at both Westfield Innaloo and the amazing Karrinyup precinct and so
much more.
Perfectly positioned in a tranquil and tightly-held South Scarborough pocket, where the
sea breeze feels like part of the furniture, this rear sanctuary combines low-maintenance
living with postcard-worthy outlooks. Because when sunsets become part of your daily
routine, life suddenly feels a whole lot more special!
