Cherished Family Retreat in Peaceful Parkside Position
For over thirty years, this hilltop retreat has raised generations, hosted countless parties and get-togethers – including a wedding – and remained a peaceful sanctuary for family life. Overlooking Fortini Park across the way, it’s a brilliant location too: schools and parks all around, bus routes and shopping precincts nearby, and only minutes to the coast or central Freo.
From the outset, the palm-lined setting instantly puts you at ease with a garden of lush lawn, succulents and natives, framed by intriguing roof angles against the sky. There’s ample driveway parking in front of the three-car garage, with enough space for a trailer, boat or caravan.
Inside, an impressive sense of space unfolds: lofty vaulted ceilings and natural northern light, alongside easy-care tiles and plush carpet. A large sitting room sits to the right, opposite a generous main suite complete with walk-in robe and ensuite.
Beyond, three bedrooms, all with robes, extend down the hallway, each sharing a granite-topped, dual-vanity bathroom with spa bath and separate powder room. There’s extensive built-in storage throughout, while at the rear is a large laundry, another bathroom, and a study (or fifth bedroom).
A formal dining room is adjacent to the kitchen, where soaring jarrah-lined ceilings continue that open feel. The kitchen wraps around to dual ovens, induction cooktop, dishwasher, and corner pantry, with an internal servery between the kitchen and main living – flowing outdoors with ease.
Outside, the home’s entertaining appeal comes into play. A large, pitched-roof alfresco is perfect for all-weather use while guests spill inside and out, with built-in bench seating, layers of garden greenery, and an ambient water feature trickling into a fishpond. There’s also a separate outdoor room with a barbecue and second kitchen, making it even easier to host gatherings, big and small.
Solar power, ducted heating/cooling, a security alarm with cameras, and two storage sheds (including one with a chook run) complete this generational gem.
It’s not often a much-loved home treasured for decades comes to market, with endless options and space. But with so much potential to make it your own or enjoy as is – this is it.
