62 The Boulevard, Floreat WA 6014

Stunningly situated on a massive 986sqm corner block that offers options aplenty for the astute buyer, this sprawling 5 bedroom plus study 2 bathroom character home enjoys its own slice of history and was once the original art-deco mansion of Perth's "Burger King" Bernie Hardwick before being sold to the current owners who themselves were once publicans of South Perth's famous Windsor Hotel.

Cole and Meg Sangster purchased the property in the early 1970's, but it was Mr Hardwick that was instrumental in introducing hamburgers to Perth during World War II, evolving from constant requests from American serviceman to enjoy their own beloved burgers they were missing from the United States. The ever-entrepreneurial Bernie willingly agreed and perfected them with input from the visiting GI's. Bernie ran his hamburger business on Mounts Bay Road for many years – and it was in fact the first drive-in food establishment in Perth.

There are many stories from generations of Perth people who religiously patronized his late-night burger van after a long night out, but now it's up to you to create your own history here and add your own personal touches to the solid foundations that remain. Take advantage of soaring high ceilings, two separate living areas, a casual meals space, an elegant formal dining room for those special occasions, gated drive-through access to the rear and a secure front swimming-pool or entertaining area that is just screaming to be brought back to life.

A world of convenience graces your doorstep that is commandingly nestled just moments away from shopping at Floreat Forum, bus services, lush parks, tennis courts, Floreat Park Primary School, Wembley Golf Course, Bold Park Aquatic Centre and glorious beaches. The iconic location speaks for itself – now it's time to make some memories of your own!
