72 Carrington Street, Palmyra WA 6157

Amidst sprawling gardens, climbing roses and enchanting outdoor spaces, this respectfully restored character cottage has retained all of its 1920s charm without compromise on spacious modern living.

Tuckpointed brickwork, decorative iron gates and an inviting wrap-around veranda offer whimsical reminders of a bygone era, whilst inside, classical appointments of sky-high ceilings, intricate ceilings roses, original architraves & skirting boards, and rich jarrah floors meld into a breathtaking rear extension, blissfully awash in warm white & natural light.
Several working fireplaces adorn the home – inclusive of a cozy library – while endless garden views and access to a freshwater lap pool extend to dreamy open-plan living zones.

A grand entrance hall – offset by a central decorative arch - anchors the home and extends to three generous bedrooms, each with fireplaces and most with built-in-robes & pretty ceiling rose detail.

Glorious natural light draws attention to the rear of the home where the book-studded library melds into a modern kitchen (appointed with quality appliances) and a conservatory-style dining room, each illuminated by reams of northern rays.

From the expansive living room, huge bifold doors integrate into a white-washed sanctuary of terrazzo paving and a trellised canopy (currently entwined with recently planted grape vines) which lead to the much loved, glass tiled lap pool – a stunning turquoise addition set along the northern wall, which imparts minimal impact to the block’s integrity and during the summer months, is flanked by a wall of crimson-red Boston Ivy.

The addition of a discreet southern wing from the living room is where a private fourth bedroom (with external access to the driveway), a shared bathroom (with tub, double vanity & heated ceiling lamp), powder room & generous laundry (with rear drying court access) are located.

With vast potential to plant a thriving veggie garden, add a children’s playground and renovate an existing studio or pool house, the garden – framed in walls of recycled red brick - is teeming with possibilities, not to mention its size which is a rare asset for the area.

The current owners hold fond regard for the heart-warming community spirit found within this unique family-friendly enclave.

Tiny Beez Childcare Centre is conveniently located next door, while a myriad of bespoke cafes, lifestyle and wellness studios and an artisan bakery are walking distance away - or visit the iconic Palmyra Farmer’s Market (at Palmyra Primary School) every Sunday, enjoy direct access to Fremantle, the river and several beaches, or just minutes away are multiple supermarkets, grocers and convenience options.

Other features include ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning throughout, solar panels – plus an additional Hive Solar Battery - tandem parking for up to five vehicles, security grills on doors and an onsite bore (along with fully reticulated, easy-care gardens).
