16 Harley Street, Highgate WA 6003

UNDER OFFER - HOME OPEN CANCELLED!

Positioned just moments from Hyde Park and a short stroll to Beaufort St, this property is a peaceful sanctuary close to all the action.
Built circa 1903, the home's original character has been beautifully retained for today's enjoyment. The trappings of the era include intricate ceiling roses (all original plasterwork), 11ft ceiling heights, stained glass, three working fireplaces, wooden floorboards, extra high skirtings, elegant sash windows and decorative cornicing.
The front of the home features three grand bedrooms and a formal lounge room, while the rear opens to a showstopper rear extension, which was designed by award-winning local architect Joe Chindarsi and completed 2011. The enormous kitchen island is the centrepiece of this stunning space, offering a place for casual family dining as well as Friday night drinks. The stunning designer bathroom is equally impressive.
Timber decking and stacker doors along the entire rear wall make for a seamless transition to the outdoor entertaining area. This private and easy-care oasis features a stunning flame tree, which comes into crimson bloom in the lead up to Christmas. There's also a beautiful native frangipani, a koi pond and a water feature that provides a Zen soundtrack throughout the living areas. The garage is accessed from the rear laneway.
On a tree-lined street surrounded by character homes, this little pocket of Highgate is an exquisite reminder of yesteryear, only 2km from the centre of the city. You won't find a prettier investment for your money, and as the city grows and develops, we think special homes like this one will become a valuable commodity - a welcome alternative for those wanting city convenience away from the high-rise buildings.
