96B Petra Street, Bicton WA 6157

A tranquil retreat

This stylish two-storey property in a prime lifestyle location boasts phenomenal attention to detail and intelligent use of space.

With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a solar-heated lap pool, a private entertainer's alfresco, and the option to buy most of the existing furniture and artwork, this is a unique offering for those seeking a move-in-ready, lock-and-leave lifestyle.

Furthermore, it's a deceptively spacious home, apparent from the minute you enter the front hall, awash with natural light thanks to soaring cathedral ceilings and - ahead in the open-plan sitting/dining - floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the pool.

Solid Marri floorboards create a sense of flow from the hallway and throughout the main living areas, with an impressive 4.2m-high ceiling in the sitting area adding to the sense of space. The kitchen is a chef's dream, with Caesar-stone benchtops and a huge island breakfast bar. Bi-fold doors opening to the alfresco brings the outside in and expands the entertaining space.

Off the entry is a formal living or TV room, ideal for movie nights. The spacious master bedroom features glass doors opening onto a second terrace adjoining the pool. Simply fall out of bed and jump straight in for a swim! An eye-catching design element is the combined ensuite-dressing room, with his and hers sinks and Caesar-stone benchtops and spa bath.

Upstairs is an open-plan living area with the unique addition of a cedar wood sauna, also included in the sale. There are also two double bedrooms with built-in robes and a bathroom.

Outside, summer get-togethers will be a big hit by the 14-metre-long pool, beautifully lit at night, as is the alfresco with an eight-seater dining suite, built-in Ziegler and Brown BBQ with rotisserie and double bar fridge, all housed under a pitched cedar roof.

Within walking distance of great schools, gourmet shops, the banks of the Swan River and major transport links, this is a move-in ready forever home for families, busy professionals or downsizers.
