46 Westbury Crescent, Bicton WA 6157

Extraordinary attention to detail and excellent taste have created a serene and elegant home on a large block in a prestigious street in the river precinct. Built in the 1930s and recently renewed with comprehensive renovations, it retains the charm of the era: large airy rooms, jarrah floors, fabulous ceiling details and magnificent bay windows. Two living areas, separate dining room, remarkable chef’s kitchen, an expansive space for studio or games room, and a large cellar built into the limestone below, all make this a very desirable family home.

Jarrah floors gleam in the wide entry hallway, leading to a grand room with curved seating in the bay window. This is a charming second living area, but would also make a large fourth bedroom if desired. Beyond, the open-plan living is a stunning space, featuring a gas log fireplace, a lovely spot in the corner window for reading, a casual dining nook with skylight above, and a substantial and finely-crafted kitchen. With pearl granite tops and custom jarrah cabinetry, induction cooktop and walk-in pantry, it’s a serious inspiration for the chef. Adjacent is the butler’s pantry, Wolf wall oven, dishwasher and large sinks. From the kitchen, the living area and the dining room, you can step out to verandas that wrap around the home, creating an easy inside-out feel, while also being completely secure.

Three lovely bedrooms have fine carpeting and built-in robes - one has a beautiful white en-suite with dual access to the veranda. Another bathroom, in refined black-and-white, features a luxurious free-standing bath. The rear deck is spacious and sheltered, overlooking perfect gardens of lawn, magnolias, Chinese elms and tallow, as well as a flourishing orange tree. A paved area invites long table dining among the trees, and there’s ample cool storage in the large cellar. In addition, a long, concrete-floored room, with laundry incorporated, can be a games room, workshop or studio, with a wall of glass doors leading to the backyard.

Every element has been considered for comfort, style and quality: finest light fittings and window treatments, reverse-cycle air-conditioning, monitored alarm security, and veranda louvres for temperature control and privacy. The extensive renovations included a new roof and new fencing. The double garage is extra spacious, and there is additional off-street parking. To make even more of this desirable location, a possible second storey would be likely to capture river views.

Come and experience the peaceful atmosphere of an historic family home renewed with impeccable style, in a quiet, family-friendly neighbourhood with the river a walk away.
