Set within a tree-lined and established streetscape, this character-filled c.1915 residence sits privately and securely behind privacy walls, a gated entry and covered parking. A clear sense of separation is established on arrival, with a landscaped frontage softening the boundary and easing the transition from street to home.
A traditional verandah introduces the home, leading to a leadlight entry where the original character is immediately apparent. Underpinned by Jarrah floors, with high ceilings, ornate detailing and picture rails defining a series of front rooms that retain their proportion and intent. Four bedrooms are positioned within this original section, including a king-sized master with a refined ensuite. A central bathroom has been fully renovated with tile detailing, a frameless shower and deep soaking bath, supported by the separate powder room nearby.
The rear of the home shifts into a more timeless expression, where the volume opens, and natural light becomes a defining feature. Living and dining extend across a generous footprint, stepping down into a sunken family zone. Two walls of glass frame this space, drawing the northern aspect inward and creating a strong visual connection to the garden beyond.
The kitchen sits within the main living zone, clearly resolved for both daily use and entertaining. Stone surfaces, shaker style two tone cabinetry and a large island with breakfast bar seating create a substantial space for congregating and preparing, supported by premium appliances including induction cooking and electric pyrolytic oven. Adjacent to the kitchen, the meals area is given its own sense of place through custom banquette seating with built in storage.
Glass doors open the main living area to the private garden beyond, where the jacaranda tree provides structure, shade and seasonal beauty. Outdoor zones are clearly arranged, with a covered alfresco fitted with cafe blinds allowing for use across changing conditions.
Throughout the home, updates have been made with utmost consideration to how families live today. Split system air conditioning is positioned across multiple rooms, solar panels contribute to efficiency, and practical inclusions such as a fully fitted laundry, attic storage and plantation shutters support everyday use.
Beyond the gates, the location has a natural ease for family life. Parks sit close by, schools and transport are within reach, and Beaufort Street's cafes, restaurants and local institutions remain part of the home's wider daily landscape. It is a position that feels connected without losing the private family sanctuary appeal.
