THE PARKS DISTRICT CITY BEACH | OCEAN VIEW 1980s HIGH FLYER ON PARK | BY OBSERVATION CITY ARCHITECT, ROBERT CANN! | "AS IS" COOL AND ORIGINAL
THE LOCATION
9 Wayeela Place is located in a tiny, intimate no-through traffic, family-friendly cul-de-sac street and is backing onto parkland which runs from The Ocean Village Shopping Centre to the oceanfront homes opposite the beach track which is only metres from your back gate. This property is so close to the water’s edge that the sound of the ocean reverberates through the air from dusk until dawn. The views are sublime in all directions, and you are never further than footsteps away from your next calming dip in the ocean.
Situated in North City Beach’s highly renowned “The Parks District”, you will never find another suburb design as unique and gorgeous as this unrivalled area abundant in nature, green parkland, and mature vegetation. In a planning environment that requires developers throughout the state to provide 10% public open space, this precinct of City Beach must surely have more like 45%! Three immaculate park networks run unbroken from the Wembley Downs border to the east all the way to the oceanfront homes without crossing a road. They are connected to one another laterally by green lawned walkways enabling you to walk almost anywhere within the suburb, north, east, south, or west through beautiful nature corridors, barely ever encountering a street or traffic.
From the crest of the hills en-route to the beach, the parks open to beautiful, wide elevated ocean views framing your walk before you. If you are new to the suburb, your kids will make so many friends playing with the neighbourhood children each day after school – it is just part of the lifestyle here. Have a dog or just enjoy a morning or evening stroll? You too will meet so many friends and neighbours at a speed you are unused to from previous suburbs. The Parks District offers such a wonderful, healthy outdoors lifestyle atmosphere and so socially inclusive.
You are sure to fall in love with life in The Parks District, within Perth City's most central, yet most spacious oceanfront suburb. Seriously, do locations and lifestyles come any better than this? I'm not sure that they do!
THE HOME
The property is in absolutely untouched, original condition and sold “as is” - a super cool, early 1980’s architect designed home by Robert Cann who designed Observation City. What a pedigree! It is right next to the beach track, backing onto parkland with some of the most amazing ocean views in City Beach.
The “bones” are excellent for a renovation and are screaming for someone to reincarnate it into the current era – almost every room flows indoor/outdoor onto a balcony or courtyard and almost all rooms enjoy ocean views.
The architecture is exquisite. Big rooms with high ceilings and large volumes abound. There is fantastic separation between master-suite, kids’ bedroom wing and guest wing. There are some incredible lines and interesting curves which are sure to speak to you. This is a home to remember. Fantastic period detail comes to you unaltered, and ready to include or otherwise in your renovation project – the choice is yours. Think; brass staircase with rich patina, conversation pit with marble built-in side tables, multicoloured, multi-panelled stained glass entry hall window, period lighting, glass brick feature walls and windows and huge concrete below ground pool.
THE POTENTIAL
With the potential to sell only marginally above land value, the opportunities here are endless. The views-to-everywhere landholding adjacent to park and only footsteps to the beach track, makes this an ideal site to start a new and build your dream home.
Alternately, the dwelling itself is an unspoiled classic and would support the sexiest of contemporary makeovers. Call your stylist, call your interior architect, get your creative juices flowing – I personally can’t wait to see what this home could become!
