6 Sydney Street, Cottesloe WA 6011

Less than 50 steps to arguably one of Cottesloe's loveliest beaches, with kilometers of white sand and crystal clear azure blue water as far as the eye can see.

With a charming street appeal, this much-loved and cherished weatherboard home is a sea of blue & white with gabled arches and timeless Cape Cod appeal.

Enjoy pristine views of Rottnest Island as well as a variety of ocean aspects from all four corners of the property.

Quarry-cut limestone and Mediterranean-style gardens frame this inviting family home with breathtaking vistas captured from every aspect, including the upstairs “throne” according to the owners who have cherished more than 20 wonderful years living at this coastal haven.

A vast open plan living, kitchen, and dining from the entrance foyer, anchored by a huge (re-engineered) stone waterfall edge island bench and reams of snowy white cabinetry, evokes light & dreamy beach house style.

Loads of timber-framed windows and a sunny timber deck bring the ocean landscape indoors. At the same time, warm jarrah wood in the flooring, vaulted ceilings, and shiplap paneling continue throughout the breezy interior of this home.

A stunning timber-clad staircase, separating the rear living areas and upper floor bedrooms, evokes classic beach-cabin vibes with its cavernous, slanted ceiling and perfectly placed sunroof window (equipped with remote sun blind) intended to capture the various shades of indigo blue sea.

The rear of the home reveals yet another layer of beachside bliss.

Bolstered by a guest bedroom, spa-clad bathroom, discreet study, and a spacious laundry room, the secondary open-plan sitting and dining area is framed by a wall of glass doors and views to a charming vine-covered patio and cottage-style garden studded in herbs and fruit trees including passionfruit, olive, lemon, and pomegranate.
An original limestone cabin designed to cellar wines within its naturally temperature-moderating walls is currently used as a peaceful yoga room with bamboo floors and a high jarrah vaulted ceiling.

The garden also includes a heated outdoor shower, a 3,000-litre rainwater tank (servicing the toilet & laundry), and no-through rear laneway access (from MacArthur Street) offering additional parking and garden entry via a secure lockable gate.

Laid in light beech-wood style flooring, upstairs, the master suite, with a coastally themed ensuite, ocean views, vaulted jarrah ceilings and two built-in robes, holds a prime position to optimise elevated ocean views stretching as far south as Fremantle Port and North Mole to the white sandy beaches of southern Cottesloe. There is also private access to a timber-decked veranda to invite cooling sea breezes in the warmer months.

Two more secondary bedrooms, separated by a generous bathroom (also with ocean vistas and vaulted timber ceilings), frame tranquil seaside views and include generous built-ins and cozy beach-cabin appeal with charming timber paneling and a window seat in the garden-view bedroom.

There are two split-system air conditioning units on the lower floor, downlighting in most areas, a double remote garage on the lower ground, and traditional walnut & rattan ceiling fans in most bedrooms. The extra-large laundry is connected to a laundry chute and is fitted with a wall-mounted drying rack (plus external drying court access).

A modest, private street with immediate walking access to the beach, this is by far one of Cottesloe’s most aspirational locations. Walk to Leighton and an endless selection of cafes, bars, fitness studios, and convenience options, enjoy proximity to private college networks and primary schools, plus direct access to the Fremantle Line – just a 2-minute walk away.
