A Harmonious Balance of Old and New
Introducing a beautifully renovated 1960s character home in a highly desirable locale. This five-bedroom, three-bathroom residence boasts a balance of charming original features with a contemporary extension and improvements, making it the perfect home for busy families. Located just steps from Stirling highway and Rowe Park, this home offers elegance, comfort and practicality.
The appealing exterior of the home features a white rendered brick and painted weatherboard finish, complemented by an enclosed front yard with an exposed aggregate driveway, steps, and entrance. The large liquid amber tree creates both shade and a beautiful natural focal point at the front of the property. There's plenty of parking, with a secure double carport and an additional tandem bay.
Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a formal lounge room with a 2.6-metre ceiling that flows seamlessly into a versatile study or music room, depending on your needs. The light-filled open-plan family and dining room at the rear features wall-to-wall windows and stacking doors that connect the indoor and outdoor entertaining areas, capturing the northern light.
This area also includes a built-in TV, Sonos sound bar and ceiling speakers, and a cosy gas fireplace that warms the entire space. The brand new kitchen is a dream, featuring a 1.1 metre Smeg freestanding gas cooker with double ovens, a 7-burner cooktop and a teppanyaki plate. The Caesarstone benchtops, large breakfast island with built-in storage, ASKO dishwasher, double pantry fitted with drawers, and subway-tiled splashbacks make this space as functional as it is beautiful. A window overlooking the alfresco and rear terraced gardens allows you to keep one eye on the kids while you prepare your family's favourite meals.
The laundry is also impressive, featuring a triple linen closet, overhead cabinetry and external access. The main bedroom suite, conveniently separate from the children's rooms, has a gorgeous pool view and rear access via stacking doors. It includes a fully fitted walk-in robe and a luxury ensuite with a double rain shower and a separate WC.
Find a guest bedroom and study with terracotta tiling in the southern wing of the home and a resort-style family bathroom with a freestanding tub, a floating stone vanity, textured wall tiles, and a separate WC.
Upstairs you will find two generous bedrooms with built-in robes and roller blinds, one with feature damask wallpaper. They share a modern bathroom with a semi-frameless rain shower, WC and heat lamp, and a good-sized living/activity/study area at the landing.
Outside, you'll enjoy the spacious alfresco area, complete with a 'Big Ass' ceiling fan, exposed aggregate paving, and built-in speakers, perfect for entertaining. The saltwater swimming pool is enclosed by frameless glass balustrading and includes a Kreepy Krawley pool cleaner, concealed cover, and remote-controlled pool lighting. Finishing touches such as honed aggregate paving to the pool edge, a Turkish travertine wall with a water blade feature, limestone terraced gardens, a cantilever market umbrella, and a screen of established magnolias across the back fence line make this backyard an oasis.
Additional features include ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning, 5.5kW solar panels, and instantaneous gas hot water. You'll love that your new home is located moments from Claremont Quarter and the impressive new Claremont Hotel, Showgrounds Train Station, Freshwater Bay Primary School, and some of Perth's most prestigious private schools. It is just over a kilometre to the river's edge, making it the perfect position for families who value convenience and lifestyle.
