89 Fraser Street, Bicton WA 6157

By the park, on the corner of Birdwood Circus, is a beautifully individual family home that is simply wonderful in every way. It is easy to see why House and Garden magazine chose to feature this as a “Forever Home”. It’s true. You will never want to leave.

The gracious bones of a 1920’s home are the basis for an inspired transformation, lovingly created by the interior designer owner. Wrapped by wide verandas on three sides, surrounded by walled formal gardens and with the sounds of flowing water and birdsong everywhere, this is a magical environment that feels at one with the treed parkland it overlooks. Inside, every space has an open relationship to the outdoors; to veranda, garden, courtyard or balcony.

A consuming passion to make a home that is a joy to live in has been driven by attention to detail and great taste. Everywhere are bespoke features that are all about timeless quality. Even the kitchen island integrates a vast vintage timber bench originally used for cutting sari cloth. Those original touches combine with a tireless dedication to sourcing the very best, including Circa lighting imported from the USA throughout.

Jarrah floors are waxed for a natural feel, and an elegant sitting room opens through grand French doors to the veranda and the sunken firepit in the garden beyond. All three downstairs bedrooms are absolutely lovely, each with its own inside-outside feeling and green aspect. A large, luxurious bathroom is nearby, all fresh and white with a fabulous bath.

The grand living zone is the heart of it all and immediately lifts the spirits. The incredible kitchen is a delight to work in – expansive, intelligently designed and ideally equipped. There is a sitting room to the side, a long dining space and a lofty-ceilinged living area that opens to the outdoors on two sides. High windows to the north welcome the light, and the space flows east to the sheltered courtyard and spa, and west to outdoor dining.

Upstairs, a grand office is ideal for home business (or even just homework), incorporating several workstations. The master bedroom is sensational, with a bathroom of travertine and marble and a wonderful French tub. Step out to the balcony over the park and you feel you are living in the treetops with the kookaburras.

You’ll also find all the practicalities that make it not just beautiful, but beautifully functional: double garage, great storage, ample off-street parking, and much more. In a quiet, prestigious location, this is a remarkable family home that is about togetherness and inspiration. Don’t miss this opportunity.
