Boasting a commanding street presence and sure to benefit from the addition of your own personal modern touches throughout, this beautifully-presented 5 bedroom 2 bathroom powder room and 3 toilet family home offers timeless comfort and will keep everybody happy with its functional floor plan.
Beyond double front doors and off a tiled character entrance lies a sunken lounge with a bar area, charming timber cabinetry, high raked ceilings, an open brick fireplace and access out to a splendid front pergola with stunning Jacaranda views to either side. Also reserved for those special occasions is the formal dining room that overlooks it – feature decorative ceiling and all.
The tiled kitchen is practical in design and plays host to more feature wooden Jarrah cabinetry, double sinks, a Chef gas cooktop, double Chef ovens, a warmer oven and two double-door timber pantries. It precedes a casual open-plan family and meals area that is also neatly tiled and comprises of soaring high raked cathedral-style ceilings and external access to the rear.
Double doors reveal a huge third living zone in the form of a Games room with grand ceilings of its own, alongside a burning combustion fireplace and even more built-in storage. The obvious pick of the bedrooms is a massive front master suite with access out on to the balcony (allowing you to wake up to a pleasant leafy aspect), a huge walk-in wardrobe/dressing room and an ensuite bathroom with a shower, separate toilet and twin “his and hers” vanities.
A private north-facing backyard setting isn’t overlooked by any of the neighbours and is made up of several paved courtyard areas for entertaining, a gas bayonet for outdoor barbecues, a feature waterfall and fountain pond and a rear lemon tree, hidden behind the swaying palm trees that tower above everything else. Parking will never be an issue here either, with plenty of space either on the driveway, under the carport or within the garage.
The lovely Phillip Jane Park and coffee shop are only strolling distance away, as are bus stops and Banksia Park Primary School, with the spectacular Melville Glades Golf Club, Leeming Senior High School, major shopping centres, the freeway, other major arterial roads, Murdoch Train Station, Murdoch University, the St John of God Murdoch and Fiona Stanley Hospitals, Fremantle and even the city only minutes away in their own right. What a wonderful and convenient place in which to live. Impressive is an understatement!
