Architect Designed - 721sqm Land Holding
Find your forever home with this artfully designed contemporary residence in the heart of leafy Shenton Park and on the doorstep of Kings Park, top schools and vibrant entertainment hubs.
With four to five bedrooms, two bathrooms, a north-facing swimming pool and spa, soaring ceilings and multiple garden seating areas, there's truly something for the entire family at every stage of life.
Occupying a generous 721sqm corner block on a quiet, established street, this welcoming home was designed and built by architect Philip Idle in 1999. Recently painted inside and out, stylish Tasmanian oak flooring greets arrivals into the entrance hall and continues throughout. A front sitting room is accessed via double glass doors, awash with natural light thanks to wall-length windows that overlook a sunny side courtyard with a large spa bath.
To the right of entry is the option to choose from one oversized bedroom or divide the space into two. Adjoining is the third bedroom and large bathroom with shower, bath, heat lamp and separate WC.
A dining space further down the hall boasts double-sided glass doors overlooking the spa terrace and a second courtyard to the east. Here, as it is throughout, timber-framed windows and high ceilings bring the light in at every turn and features such as a limestone feature wall enhance the charming rustic aesthetic.
Gatherings no matter the season will be a must in the spacious living area and adjoining kitchen facing the sun-drenched back garden and fenced pool area. Choose from summer BBQs under the limestone tiled, covered alfresco with ceiling fan, pool parties, or wintry nights by the wood fireplace in the living room. Cook up a storm in the generously proportioned kitchen, complete with European appliances, kitchen island with under storage, double fridge recess and double sink, all the while admiring the leafy garden outlook.
A gracefully curved staircase with a cabled balustrade leads to the master bedroom with his and hers built-in robes and a huge ensuite with double basins, significant cabinet space, a rain shower and separate WC. At the rear, admire the pool view below, or from the front of the house, sip your morning coffee among the trees from the quiet terrace accessed via glass doors. Outside, rest a while in a grassy corner under an imposing Chinese elm or admire the white wisteria climbing the side wall adjacent to the alfresco.
From here, you're within walking distance of stunning parklands, Rosalie Primary School and major transport links, with Subiaco and Perth's CBD also just minutes away. This home offers an enviable lifestyle in a prime family-friendly location.
