5a Simper Crescent, White Gum Valley WA 6162

This beautifully crafted, modern 2-storey home brings together great design, character and sustainable building features. Built with the use of thermally efficient SIPs (Structural Insulated Panels), this is a tranquil home that is comfortable all year round, saving on the cost of heating and cooling.

With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, high vaulted ceilings and a central, open-plan living space, this home cleverly provides great separation combined with a cosy central living space and a very generous undercover deck for entertaining.

The tall, glass front door opens into a small entrance hall which continues to an open-plan living area with a beautifully polished concrete floor. An artistic steel and timber staircase adds bold character and leads to the main bedroom and ensuite with a delightful, balustraded upstairs gallery.

The kitchen is a bold and beautiful combination of crisp white cabinetry, designer wooden handles, stone benchtops and smart Bosch appliances. The gorgeous blue and white tiling is echoed in the adjacent laundry room, which boasts a pair of leadlight feature windows and is separated from the kitchen by glass doors.

On the ground level, 2 bedrooms share a central bathroom and a crafted timber study-nook. The larger bedroom has an exquisite pair of antique leadlight doors, and both rooms have an outlook onto greenery. The study and bathroom both have Velux skylights, giving a flood of natural light to the study area and the shower cubicle.

Upstairs, the main bedroom sanctuary starts with a large landing for a comfy reading-chair beside the natural light of a small window, and there's the perfect gallery space for a book, artwork, or curio collection. The main bedroom is spacious, with a wall of built-in robes and a dressing-table nook. There's even more space for a sofa, so you can retreat from the household and relax. As in the main bathroom, the ensuite has a stylish timber vanity, floor to ceiling tiles, and raked ceilings finished with white panelled timber boards.

While the house is a vibrant, cool, designer space, the outside areas are lavishly planted surrounding the home with the sense of a lush garden. The back deck is virtually a second living space and perfect for outdoor entertaining. Thick limestone walls create a solid boundary to the upper gardens, and oiled timber decking provides an elegant place to relax.

Walls of vegetation, trained on steel-wired trellises, surround the home's boundaries. Recycled bricks have been used for the entire driveway, parking and reversing bays, and front gates create security for pets and children to run around the property.

There is so much to see here and enjoy - so much so, that it's easy to forget to mention the superb location! Just off Samson Street, the property is close to the Fremantle border. It's a walk or bike ride to all of Freo's talked-about locations and it's convenient for schools, shops and transport. Simper Crescent is also a vibrant, community-minded street in the heart of the ever-popular White Gum Valley.
