3 Bedroom 1 Study 2 Bathroom 3 Garage
The iconic Singapore Raffles Hotel was the key style inspiration for this gloriously restored Art Deco beauty, which sits proudly upon a generous, northern-aspect corner block, just minutes from the river. Original leadlight double-doors, exquisite ceiling detail, bay windows and black-stained timbers offset a breathtakingly ethereal, island-luxe extension.
Honouring 1930s architecture, the front layout of this home is a stunning homage to British Colonial and art deco style; a dreamy front porch clad in encaustic-look low slip-rated tiles; while inside, dark stained 'Japan black' timber floors & frames, generous bay windows & sheer linen drapes, stucco walls, and original pendant lights - along with those glorious leadlight double doors - complement the inviting entry foyer which leads to a grand formal lounge, with LED electric fireplace and study, library room or fourth bedroom, fitted with reverse air.
Across the void is a truly enchanting master suite, fitted with a custom headboard and access to a Hollywood-style dressing room, with built-in timber custom storage and padded sliding doors clad in silk from an exotic Camilla kaftan! The surprise reveal of a huge, double height ensuite with custom-designed double vanity, bespoke cabinetry and ceiling-to-floor off-white porcelain terrazzo tiles, includes an oversized walk-in shower - with remote-controlled v lux sky-light & rain shower head, free-standing designer tub, customised brushed gold hardware and emerald-green kit-kat finger-tile accents.
The dreamy experience continues from the entrance foyer via a marble-floored mud room, which, when the double doors are opened, reveals a magnificent sun-drenched rear, open-plan extension underscored by luxe tropical island-style aesthetics and re-engineered KUSTOM timber beach oak-style flooring. generous windows, and full wall-length stacker doors frame lush garden views and a protected alfresco, offset by oversized cane pendant lights and pops of colour from chequerboard porcelain terrazzo tiles in the finest blush rose and off-white hues.
An inviting LED electric fireplace, high ceilings, plantation shutters, ducted air-conditioning system and gas bayonet guarantee comfort around the seasons in the vast living area. Built-in banquet seating with custom-upholstered Jimmy Pike-designed cushions, complements the carefully considered kitchen, styled entirely with next-level appointments. As expected, an oversized Caesarstone island bench with scalloped featured panelling defines this space. Push out windows to alfresco bar seating and USB ports ensure this fabulous space is entertainment friendly and functional. Siemens appliances, including an induction stove top, gas wok burner, double combo oven and integrated dishwasher, complement soft-closing, timber veneer cabinetry which extends to a galley or butler's kitchen leading to a shopper's entry to the extra height double garage with mezzanine storage.
Two spacious, light-filled bedrooms, separated by a bathroom with similar style elements to the master ensuite (with separate toilet/powder room), feature plush, natural wool carpets, built-in-robes and plantation shutters – both beds are fitted with reverse-cycle air-conditioning.
Other features include side-access, an extra lock-up single garage with tandem off-street parking (three car garage total); onsite bore & fully reticulated gardens; generous laundry with external drying rack access; external speakers and TV mount in alfresco; outdoor shower and fire pit; locks on all doors and windows and sheer curtains and block-out blinds on feature windows.
To round-off the sheer splendour of this impeccable home, is its idyllic location, just minutes from the river and walking distance to leafy parks and open-space, along with cafes, Bicton Primary School, local shopping precincts and just a short drive to East Fremantle, fitness and wellness studios and stunning beaches.
