Cottesloe's Best Kept Secret
Seeing is believing!
This magnificent heritage home with a very recent, architectural and modern renovation will exceed your expectations. Swan House was built circa 1903 and is nestled in the heart of a most convenient and sought-after location near Jasper Green Reserve (children's playground and swings, basketball hoop, football goals, practice tennis wall, exercise equipment area, ocean views.) You will be just a short walk from cafes, public transport, a shopping precinct, four private schools and a state primary school.
The impressive open-plan renovation at the rear of the home offers alfresco entertaining overlooking a gorgeous pool and established garden, with an abundance of northern light. Designed for a busy family or foodies, the meticulously thought through gourmet kitchen offers a large walk-in cool room, a fridge drawer, integrated freezer, spectacular colonial white granite benches with a floating breakfast bar, a side scullery, Gaggenau induction cook top, Miele ovens and 2.5 dishwashers.
Roman travertine laid inside and out provides a continuous platform for easy and stylish living.
The new second story, designed like a luxury hotel room, offers a parents retreat to delight the senses. The huge walk-in robe flows from a stunning bathroom with a double shower, separate toilet and a gorgeous bath. The beautifully lit and very large bedroom is a dream come true.
The additional bedroom upstairs has magnificent oak flooring, huge windows to the northern light and views of Norfolk pine trees. It is currently set up as a spacious yoga/meditation room and presents endless opportunities.
The heritage part of the home with original jarrah floor boards and lead-light windows has also been renovated and offers 3 large bedrooms (one with its own ensuite) and flows onto a playroom.
A clever addition of a large self-contained studio above the garage offers an owner a potential office with entry from the ROW, granny flat, music studio, 6th bedroom or extra break out space for the kids.
The recent renovations include 8 speakers in the ceiling of the main living and alfresco area, ducted air conditioning, solar power with back to the grid system for the house and separate solar heating for the sparkling pool.
