Just over a decade ago the current owners had a grand vision to embark on a construction journey that would fulfill every need of their growing family and future multi-generational needs too. It was a journey that took full advantage of one of Kalamunda's most prized locations "Walbeck Road' and capitalised on its statuesque and commanding position to cleverly incorporate city views into its newly built north wing.
Besides the blue ribbon location and its rare user friendly block of 2269m2 the owners also fell in love with the endearing charm of the 1950's Californian Bungalow styled homestead that stood gracefully and held its head up high amongst its neigbouring palatial residences for many years. The homestead now referred to as the south wing was an integral piece of the overall design in that it created not only an irreplaceable nostalgic feel but it also created a multi- generational living arrangement or 'two homes in one'.
One is lost for words now when it comes to its bold street presence, it's the most magical fusion of old and new seamlessly joined to create a monumental 711m2 under roof residential piece of art. The flow between architecture of the 1950's to todays contemporary and edgy styling is just flawless celebrating the new age of today whilst still preserving the depth of character of yesterday.
