53 John Street, Cottesloe WA 6011

A significant Cottesloe family home 'Montefiore' has hit the market for the first time in almost 70 years.

With its distinctive ornament turret and wraparound veranda, the 1913 Edwardian Queen Anne-style bungalow is a landmark home in Cottesloe. Situated on John Street, by far, one of the most beautiful and highly sought after tree-lined streets in Cottesloe where it's only a short stroll to the beach, cafes and everything fabulous Cottesloe has to offer!

Montefiore is beautifully situated on a huge 890sqm of land with a wide street frontage and laneway access from the rear and the east. This beautiful home is heritage listed and is now waiting for its new owner to bring it back to its former glory. Being in an elevated position on John Street would allow for breathtaking valley views and even views of the Swan River in the distance.

The original part of the home has a lounge at the front of the house which is spacious and packed with character features such as high pressed tin ceilings, decorative plasterwork and a bay window with a built-in cabinet and seat. Following the wide entry hall from the lounge, you will find the updated kitchen. Original jarrah floorboards are throughout this part of the home as well as in the three oversized bedrooms that run adjacent and have very high ceilings plus direct access to the wrap-around verandah. At a later date, there was a rear addition of a separate wing with a kitchenette, living areas and several other living rooms.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire a landmark property and to create your dream home.
