11 Turton Street, Guildford WA 6055

This wonderful North facing home was built in late 19th Century and was the first house in the strip from East Street to the Helena River (historical documentation available) and is identified as one of the original 100 ANZAC homes settled in the area at the turn of the century. It showcases many ornate features throughout including four (4) magnificent fireplaces. It is NOT heritage listed.

The present owners have made extensive additions in keeping with the original character and leave with great sadness. This addition includes a new dream Chefs country kitchen with walk-in pantry and a Falcon dual fuel range cooker, more living area, storage, second bathroom, huge upstairs loft/activity games area with mezzanine/extra bedroom and double car garaging with rear access from lane, new laundry area and wine storage.

The home has evaporative and reverse-cycle air conditioning plus underfloor gas heating through ornate brass floor vents.

Outdoors includes sweeping wide verandahs that frame a beautiful garden and outdoor entertaining area with a below-ground heated salt pool, grape arbor and stone fountain in idyllic surrounding gardens all in keeping with the period the house was constructed.

The property offers secure garaging (powered) for 2 cars accessed via the rear laneway access for residents (ROW) at the rear of the property PLUS parking in the front brick paved driveway of the home for an additional 2-3 cars (with electric farm style gate).
