79 Glendower Street, Perth WA 6000

Best position overlooking Hyde Park

This is a rare opportunity to become the proud new owner of this 3 level green titled home, sitting respectfully amongst one of the most admired strip of terraced homes, lucky enough to call the iconic Hyde Park as their “neighbour across the road”

The striking north-facing façade, framed with a classic wrought-iron front fence and matching intricate lacework lining the upper balcony level, helps transport you to back to a time when these style of period homes were built and became the talk of the local community!

You can’t help but be impressed by the courtyard entry, showcasing its eye-catching white wooden windows and traditional wood panelled upper balcony door and bold plantation shutters, all framed by the impressive hedged garden entry and the combination of stone pavers, lush green lawn and hard-wood verandah, all blending perfectly against the grey pastel shaded walls.

Enter through the front security door and be struck by a sense of “pezaz” with the mood set by the black stained jarrah floorboards, full height ceilings and feature gas fireplace in the frontal lounge.

Continuing through to the rear leads to the versatile open plan kitchen, dining and family area, with a mural by internationally acclaimed Australian artist Kyle Hughes-Odgers as an eye catching backdrop. Bi-folding doors open up the undercover patio decorated by ornate pressed tin panel walls and jarrah decking, providing the perfect extension of the living area big enough to cater for the larger family barbeques and get-togethers.

The kitchen exudes a modern and rustic industrial feel with the combination of stainless steel cupboards and draws, glass splashback, 900mm gas cooktop and oven and recycled timber beams for the island benchtop.

Views from the kitchen through to the garden are punctuated by the striking large antique Egyptian double doors that create a picture-postcard backdrop to the entire rear entertaining yard. Beyond those doors you have the convenience of the enclosed garage, serviced by Primrose Lane at the rear. A further 2 free car parking street permits are available for a new owner through the City of Vincent.

Completing the ground level is a bathroom and WC with enclosed laundry. Take the flight of stairs to the first level and be welcomed by the jarrah floored landing, the ideal study area perched under the stairway dividing a further two bedrooms and designer second bathroom. Each bedroom enjoys views, with the back one looking out over the rear gardens and the front one encompassing double plantation shutter doors opening out to a balcony with glorious views to the attractive street-scape and majestic Hyde Park. It is hard to imagine a better view than to witness daily the evidence of the changing seasons with Autumn leaves falling, fountains bubbling, birds chirping and the people enjoying picnics under massive age old trees.

The stairway to the top leads to the master bedroom with ensuite bathroom , walk-in robe sections and dressing table enclave with separate split system air conditioning.

Other features include ducted reverse cycle air conditioning throughout the first two levels, security system, fully reticulated front and rear gardens and original stained glass windows.

Situated only minutes to Perth’s CBD , this unique abode is in one of Perth’s most sought after and highly desirable Character Precincts. The home’s position is by far, one of the best on Glendower St, centrally positioned to allow the best views across both of the lakes at Hyde Park. With Lake St intersecting nearby, you are only a short walk to the middle of Northbridge and the variety of shops, cafes, parks, quality schools, Robertson Park Tennis Club, Beaufort St Café strip and public transport.

Going in the opposite direction will see you strolling through Hyde Park, with a further walk to the Mount Lawley café district, Robertson Park Tennis Club and the WA Italian Club.
For those looking for something different with the desire to add their own personal touches to make this home their own, knowing there is little else like this on the market. This substantial classic style residence offers a unique living situation with a lock up and leave life style amongst the charm of a bygone era.
