63a Gilbertson Road, Kardinya WA 6163

THE UNICORN OF KARDINYA

If you've been searching for a modern two-bedroom, two-bathroom home without resigning yourself to apartment living, this might be the property you thought didn't exist.

Street-front, beautifully finished and built in 2020, this exceptional survey-strata home gives you your own automatic lock-up garage with shopper's entry, a second dedicated car bay, private outdoor living, established gardens and a lock-up storeroom, with no strata management and no strata fees.

And unlike most properties offering this level of exceptional finish and low-maintenance living, there are no apartment-style compromises.

And that's before you step inside.

The quality here is immediately apparent. Soaring 32-course ceilings and 28-course doorways are enhanced by beautiful stepped cornices and skirting boards, while extensive floor-to-ceiling and highlight glazing floods the living spaces with natural light. The open-plan living and dining area feels remarkably spacious for a two-bedroom home, with a level of architectural detail rarely seen in this category.

At its heart is a beautifully appointed kitchen that doesn't ask you to compromise on space either, with generous stone benchtops, waterfall detailing, extensive gloss cabinetry, breakfast-bar seating and quality ILVE appliances.

Both bedrooms are generously proportioned with built-in robes, while two beautifully finished bathrooms, reverse-cycle air conditioning and a separate laundry make the home as practical as it is impressive.

And then there's the storage. An almost ridiculous amount of it for a two-bedroom home! Extensive kitchen cabinetry, generous built-in robes, triple linen cupboards, additional storage throughout and a beautifully finished external lock-up storeroom. Even the garage is generously proportioned, with room to park your car AND store all the things that inevitably accumulate over the years.

And that external storeroom? It's so beautifully finished, complete with high ceilings, decorative cornices and LED downlighting, that it could easily double as a charming and practical study or home office.

For anyone downsizing from a larger home, this is the sort of storage capacity that makes the transition considerably easier. Less floor space to maintain, without having to part with half your belongings.

Outside, the owners have taken an already exceptional property and made it even better. Established lilly pilly hedging creates a wonderfully private, green setting around the alfresco and courtyard, the gardens are reticulated, and the street frontage has been beautifully landscaped, including what we are prepared to call the best-designed verge on the street, possibly in all of Kardinya.

Security has also been thoroughly considered, with security screens, an alarm system, cameras and Ring video doorbell making this an excellent lock-and-leave proposition.

And the location makes everyday life remarkably convenient. With a bus stop adjacent, Aldi approximately 200 metres away and Kardinya Park Shopping Centre just 350 metres from your door, you can leave the car at home whenever you please. Beautiful local parks, Kardinya Primary School and Murdoch University are all close by, while Fiona Stanley Hospital, St John of God Hospital and Fremantle are within easy reach.

We searched the Perth metro market for another near-new 2x2 offering two dedicated car bays, including a private lock-up garage, with no strata management and no strata fees. We couldn't find one.

This is low-maintenance living without downsizing your expectations.

Come and meet the real-life unicorn.
