85 Olive Street, Subiaco WA 6008

You'll fall head over heels in love with this… An enchanting renovated and beautifully extended early 1900's character residence with gorgeous street appeal, perfectly positioned in a coveted Subiaco locale, walking distance to Rokeby Road, Bob Hawke College and Subi Primary, Subiaco Arts Centre, Kings Park, with easy access to public transport and the CBD.

There's a wonderfully warm welcome to this delightful family home set behind recycled brick pillars and sleek black iron railings. The charming gabled, tuckpointed Federation façade remains intact, with a traditional bullnose verandah, timber fretwork, turned timber posts with decorative brackets and stunning stained glass leadlight door with side and top panels. Inside is a beautiful fusion of old and new with soaring ceilings, wide jarrah floorboards, ornate ceiling roses, picture rails and original fireplaces rest easily alongside modern bathrooms, kitchen and contemporary open plan spaces at the rear.

Generously proportioned and designed to meet the needs of families across all ages and stages, the versatile floorplan offers flexible accommodation across the main residence and garden studio/guest house. Consider the option of four bedrooms and utilizing the expansive studio as a second living/games/teenage retreat or choose three bedrooms plus a second living room in the main house and use the self-contained studio for guests, older teens or as office space with its separate entrance.

The original home hosts a lovely master bedroom with built in robes, walk in robe and modern black and white en-suite, two generous bedrooms with robes, a fourth bedroom or formal living room with fireplace, a modern family bathroom, separate WC and practical laundry.

Transition through the doorway into expansive sundrenched open plan spaces - the sleek, superbly appointed, white on white kitchen features white Shaker style cabinetry, stone counters and island with casual seating, premium European appliances, and abundant prep and storage space. The fabulously spacious living and dining area, with Velux windows set into a raked ceiling, opens to a decked alfresco with plenty of space to entertain friends and family. Beyond, there's neatly planted garden beds, mature trees and plenty of lawn for the kids to play.

At the rear, with driveway as well as garden access, the single level studio/guest house offers another living proposition - a fabulously large open plan room with soaring cathedral ceiling, bathroom and very basic kitchen. With some cosmetic upgrades, it's the perfect space for teens to retreat, for guests, extended family or an au pair.
