8 Irvine Street, Peppermint Grove WA 6011

Welcome to a stately character home in one of the suburb's leafiest streets. Loved by the current owners for almost 25 years, the property is ready for a new family to make it their own.

Over a century old, the original 1910 dwelling has undergone modifications over the years, honouring the Federation style. Soaring ceilings, leadlight windows and decorative fireplaces and architraves feature throughout the home.

The formal lounge and dining at the front of the home include a timber fireplace and ornate ceilings, with French doors overlooking the timber deck and front garden. To the right, the master bedroom features expansive sash windows, another fireplace and built-in cabinetry. Leadlight doors lead into the walk-in robe and ensuite, which offers full-height tiling and a gorgeous Jarrah vanity and mirror with a marble top.

Down the hall, bedrooms two and study (or bedroom 3) contain built-in shelving and ornamental fireplaces, and there's a spacious storage area beneath the staircase.

Continue through to the impressive open-plan kitchen and living area, where a lofty, vaulted ceiling and wall-to-wall timber windows and French doors invite an abundance of light into this space. The lovely country style kitchen is equipped with ample cabinetry, Corian benchtops and a huge island bench, complete with a microwave recess and power-points. Appliances include a Miele dishwasher and a 'Rangemaster' cooker, with double electric ovens, a plate warmer and a 4-burner gas cooktop.

The family bathroom offers a double vanity, shower and WC, and the adjacent laundry includes plenty of storage, with a double linen closet, broom cupboard and overhead cabinets.

Upstairs, a sitting or activity room includes beautiful leadlight windows and a ceiling fan, with additional built-in storage. Two further bedrooms feature built-in robes, fans and timber windows, serviced by the third family bathroom.

Outdoors, a gabled pergola provides a lovely alfresco area for entertaining, overlooking auto-reticulated garden beds and a lagoon-style below-ground swimming pool. At the front, there's a double lock-up garage, red brick paving and lovely gardens enclosed by secure limestone fencing.

Positioned between Cottesloe beaches and stunning Freshwater Bay, this exclusive address enjoys proximity to several prestigious schools, Cottesloe train station and no end of chic local cafes and shopping. Restore this beauty to its former glory, or redesign with a fresh, modern look.
