Built circa 1920 this 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home occupies a dress-circle position directly opposite Raphael Park.
42 Geddes Street has been part of the fabric of Victoria Park for more than a century.
For a chapter of its long life, the tuckpointed red brick building served the local community as a doctor's practice.
Today, it is once again a home - and a particularly special one.
A distinctive front verandah, double gable frontage, a leadlight entry, wide boards throughout, a striking corbelled archway and absolute attention to detail make this substantial renovated character home a standout example of timeless Federation architecture.
Step from the broad front verandah, cross the road and you are in the park.
Dog walking.
Cricket.
Kids kicking a footy.
Morning coffee in the sunshine.
An evening lap around the neighbourhood.
Raphael Park is quite literally your front garden.
Behind its classic character façade, this grand home delivers the proportions, warmth and personality you would expect from a home of this era, combined with the modern living spaces needed today, all immaculately presented.
The generous bullnose front verandah provides the perfect place to sit and watch the world go by, while inside, soaring ceilings, fireplaces and beautifully proportioned rooms speak to the home's 1920 origins.
All three bedrooms are properly sized.
The main bedroom measures approximately 4m x 3.6m and has its own very gorgeous light and bright ensuite and walk in robe, while bedrooms two and three are similarly generous.
Then the home opens up.
At the rear, an expansive living and dining area creates a completely different experience.
At approximately 8.6m x 5.2m, this is a substantial everyday living space with room for family life, long lunches, friends around the table and everyone finding their own corner.
The kitchen sits at the heart of it all, complete with a large stone topped breakfast bar, quality appliances, a walk-in pantry and easy connection to the living and dining space.
Large stacker doors connect to the generous undercover alfresco living.
With a lovely northern aspect this space is light-filled in winter and shady in summer.
Sheltered and private, it is an easy year-round entertaining space and a natural extension of the home.
There is also a separate storeroom and double carport, complete with automatic door, making this century-old character home considerably more practical than many of its inner-city contemporaries.
This tightly held pocket of Victoria Park retains the established streetscape and genuine community feel that makes the Raphael Park Precinct so desirable, while sitting remarkably close to everything Perth has to offer.
Walk to the Albany Highway café and restaurant strip for breakfast, dinner or a drink.
Wander down towards the Swan River and McCallum Park.
Head across to Optus Stadium or Crown.
Schools, public transport and everyday shopping are all close at hand.
And the Perth CBD is just over the river.
