Commanding uninterrupted river and city views forever, this amazing piece of real estate sits comfortably in one of Australia's most spectacular positions. Secure front row seats to the best view of Perth, facing north and stretching from Kings Park to the west and the Hills to the east. With the city emerging centre stage over the Swan River, sunrise and sunset are especially breathtaking. This magical panorama will mesmerise you from countless vantage points thanks to the northerly orientation and elevated position of the home. The clever architectural design maximises views and natural light with wide-open riverfront rooms, glass balcony balustrades and extensive windows enhancing this effect.
Enter the double front doors to gleaming Blackbutt floorboards, soaring-high skylit ceilings and a beautifully curved staircase as the centrepiece. Downstairs, the space flows effortlessly to a bar, lounge and outdoor north-facing deck overlooking a resort style saltwater pool. The luxurious master suite, the only bedroom downstairs, is your own private sanctuary. You can delight in the city view from your bed as well as your spa bath in the luxurious ensuite. A truly peaceful space to wake up to.
Upstairs, open-planned family, dining and kitchen extends across the full frontage of the home, offering a stunning river vista. The expansive kitchen is well equipped with bespoke cabinetry, sleek stone bench tops and premium appliances. On those warm summer evenings, take the entertaining outside to the large balcony. It's the ultimate space for a cocktail or dinner party as the sunset fades into twilight and the city lights come alive. You will be the favourite to host New Year's Eve with the most iconic perspective of the fireworks in front of the glittering city skyline.
The rear wing of the home contains another 4 generously sized and light-filled bedrooms, all with floor to ceiling built in wardrobes and air-conditioning. It also comprises another 2 bathrooms finished with travertine tiles and marble bench tops, plus a 6th bedroom/study and a skylit laundry with ample storage.
Life is meant to be lived and you are perfectly positioned to take advantage of every amenity this vibrant area has to offer. Stroll to the chic cafés, restaurants and boutiques of Angelo Street, catch the ferry from Mends Street Jetty to Elizabeth Quay or just bathe in the warm sunshine and laid-back elegance of this outstanding home. Feeling active? Cycle or run the bridges, a famous 10 kilometre loop from your front door along the water's edge, or hop on the river for a sail, row or paddle. School drop-off will be a breeze - within 500 metres you'll find St Columba's and South Perth Primary Schools, as well as Wesley College (co-ed to Year 6, then all boys to Year 12). Other excellent schools are close by, including Hensman Elementary and the prestigious Penrhos, Mercedes, Trinity and Aquinas Colleges.
