WELCOME TO FLOREAT
Ideally located close to the city, the beach, great schools and renowned amenities, this original Floreat home has been owned and occupied by the same family since 1956. Now offered for sale for the first time in 66 years, this well-maintained and character-filled property offers the opportunity to live comfortably in the existing residence "as is", renovate at your own pace, or start from scratch to design and build your dream home on its perfectly level 837sqm block.
Delivering a light-filled and functional interior, this much cherished 3 bedroom home offers two living areas, an open plan kitchen/meals zone and a huge back yard for the kids with a sparkling salt-water swimming pool. An unexpected bonus is the useful workshop area under the main roof, providing the opportunity to work from home. Alternatively, this area could be incorporated into the main residence, a simple means of expanding the existing floorplan to create a fourth bedroom or home office.
High ceilings, decorative cornices, an original fireplace with lovely timber mantle and original boards under the carpet all provide the foundation for future renovations. Alternatively, follow in the steps of neighbouring home-owners who have taken advantage of the convenient location, a stone's throw from the local park and playground, to build anew.
This warm and welcoming home is within easy walking distance of the shops and cafes of Floreat Forum, the Floreat Sporting Precinct, (tennis bowls and cricket clubs), and a short drive to Wembley Golf Course. Local schools include Churchlands Primary School, Churchlands Senior High School and Newman College, while the state's top private schools are well serviced by nearby bus routes. The CBD is a short commute away via buses on Grantham Street, while Floreat and City Beaches are just down the road for a swim or to enjoy the cafes, restaurants and picnic areas.
