65 Shenton Road, Swanbourne WA 6010

Beyond the security of double driveway gates and nestled on a massive land holding of over 1000sqm in a prime location directly opposite Scotch College lies this character-laden 3/5 bedroom 3 bathroom two-storey family home with stunning - and unobstructed - city views over the sprawling treetops.

Upstairs, a fabulous wraparound balcony deck is where the action is, offering covered alfresco-style outdoor entertaining to the most picturesque of backdrops. Two sets of gorgeous double doors help bring the outside in, linking the timber decking to an expansive open-plan living and dining area with a ceiling fan, a feature brick fireplace and its own slice of the mesmerising vista.

An impressively-renovated kitchen is separate from everything else and impeccably boasts sparkling stone bench tops, beautiful Hamptons-like cabinetry, double sinks, quality tap fittings, a sleek white dishwasher, an integrated range hood, a five-burner gas cooktop, an under-bench oven, feature subway-tile splashbacks and plantation shutters. Also on the first floor you will find a versatile sunroom that can be whatever you want it to be (also spilling to the external dome patio and paved courtyard via double French doors), two minor bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a larger master suite with robes of its own, double doors that reveal a revamped modern ensuite bathroom with a shower, free-standing bathtub and a separate toilet, a main family bathroom with a shower, a third "guest" bathroom with a shower, toilet and vanity, a spare separate toilet and a functional laundry for good measure.

The ground floor plays host to a comfortable tiled sitting room and a connecting library, displaying the abundance of personal living options on offer to you and your loved ones here. At the rear, a huge shimmering 12-metre below-ground salt-water swimming pool is fully fenced and is bordered by tropical trees, defining both privacy and relaxation in the process.

In terms of this property's enviable position, walking distance to bus stops, the world-class Claremont Quarter shopping precinct, beautiful Lake Claremont, the Claremont Aquatic Centre, Claremont Train Station and the sprawling Claremont Oval complements a short stroll to the Claremont Showground, the Lake Claremont Golf Course and only a few minutes' commute to Swanbourne Primary School, other excellent educational facilities, cafes, restaurants, Fremantle and pristine swimming beaches. The word "convenient" is an understatement, here!
