9 Evandale Street, Floreat WA 6014

Ideally located only a short stroll from the Birkdale Street shopping precinct, this beautifully presented mid-century home is walking distance to just about everything and will appeal to buyers looking for charm, character and convenience - all at an affordable entry point into this premier suburb.

Beyond the deep front verge and white picket fence, this lovely home offers a delightful welcome through established lawns shaded by mature Chinese tallow trees and bordered by golden magnolia, native hibiscus and climbing jasmine. The automated sliding gate provides security and ease of access, while the large double carport and adjacent storage sheds offer both shelter and convenience. The elevated front verandah is the perfect spot to capture the sea breeze or watch yours and the neighbours' children playing safely in the garden in the "golden hours" of the early evening.

Inside, the home exhibits genuine vintage hallmarks, with high ceilings, stunning leadlight doors and windows and original jarrah floors.

To the left of the light-filled entrance lies a spacious front lounge room with original fireplace and lovely views to the garden. Exquisite double leadlight doors lead from here to a large dining area. The adjacent kitchen is a functional space with modern appliances, while the nearby sunroom/activity area offers an extra space for a study area or a playroom for young children.
 
A large north-facing master bedroom overlooks the garden. With split system air-conditioning, overhead ceiling fan and a wall of built in robes, this is a comfortable space for parents. The nearby bathroom is perfectly functional, while offering plenty of room to add your own enhancements. Next door, the extra-large second bedroom also has its own split system air-conditioning and plenty of storage, easily accommodating 2 younger children or an older child requiring room to study. Finally, the 3rd bedroom adjacent to the rear activity area is light and bright with a new floor to ceiling window overlooking the rear garden.

Outdoors, the large, paved garden offers plenty of space for alfresco dinner parties under festoon lighting. With room for a large outdoor dining table and lounge setting, this sheltered area shaded by mature trees is a haven for native birds and offers a private retreat for entertaining family and friends.

Located within the coveted Shenton College catchment, this lovely home sits in the midst of a friendly community of neighbours, a short walk to the cafes and restaurants of Birkdale Street. Families will love the proximity to beautiful Mabel Talbot Park and the nature playground at Wembley Sports Park, while nearby buses provide an easy option for commuters to the city, UWA and hospitals.
