Set behind established gardens and an elegant treelined streetscape of Norfolk Pines and Peppermint trees, this beautifully executed family home blends a European sensibility with all of the hallmarks of the typically Australian outdoor lifestyle.
Built to stand the test of time, this is a stand out home in a prized, central location.
Minutes from the waters of Freshwater Bay and some of Perth's most iconic beaches, this four bedroom family home oozes sophistication with its generous proportions, oversized rooms and lofty high ceilings.
Opulent without being extravagant, this sought after family home has been designed and built to exacting standards, boasting a timeless combination of timber, limestone and glass in one of the Western Suburb's most sought after residential pockets.
Framed by a walkway of ornamental pears and set behind rustic wrought iron gates, it boasts an impressive street presence indicative of the scale and subtle grandeur of the home beyond.
Opening into a wide central hallway, the ground floor layout is well thought out and flows easily from indoors to out. A generously sized formal living and study space, with open gas fire and warm timber floors adds an additional lower level living space, providing an element of privacy and space away from the central living areas.
The lower level footprint is dominated by a large central kitchen with a granite island bench with ample bench top and storage space, overlooking the beautifully maintained, north facing rear gardens.
Linking easily with the lower level dining and living space, it's easy to imagine informal family gatherings around the kitchen that later spill out into the impressive outdoor living spaces.
Honey coloured polished timber floorboards, extra high ceilings and panels of timber French doors separating indoors from out, reinforce this home's European references and sophisticated sense of style.
Designed to take advantage of its north facing aspect and abundance of natural, year round sunlight, both upstairs and down, the living spaces are generous and light filled, contributing to a real sense of understated luxury.
Set on a north-south facing, elevated block, the expansive rear gardens and alfresco entertaining spaces are sheltered by a canopy of mature trees and sit high above street level with a vista overlooking Cottesloe's trademark Norfolk Pines to the Indian Ocean beyond.
A fully equipped, alfresco entertaining space, boasts year round protection from the elements and features expansive stone benchtops, a built-in dishwasher and fridge and Ferguson barbecue complete with an integrated Tepinyaki plate.
The covered gazebo is ideal for those with a love of elegant entertaining and overlooks an extra large inground pool with expansive, resort style surrounds.
A lower level guest suite with adjoining bathroom adds an element of versatility to a well structured layout of lower level living and dining.
Upstairs the generous use of space and proportion continues with two oversized double bedrooms with built in robes and an adjoining bathroom.
The breath taking master suite takes its cues from the grandeur of a European villa, with its high ceilings and grand proportions opening out via a panel of French doors onto a sun drenched, north facing, second level terrace.
The adjoining his and hers walk in robe and well-equipped ensuite bathroom combine to give it the feel of a luxurious private apartment, the perfect place to retreat for privacy and peace.
This is a beautifully built and executed home that has been built with family life and year round entertaining in mind. Although grand in terms of space and proportion and set on an expansive 1014sq metre block, it retains the intimacy and cosiness of a true family home.
Located within walking distance of Perth's premier private schools and colleges and well serviced by public transport, it is enviably located just minutes from the beach and river and an easy commute to the Perth CBD. Minutes from the heart of the Claremont retail and dining precinct and the more intimate shopping villages for Cottesloe and Swanbourne, this is an ideal family home in a stand out location.
Bound to impress with its understated sense of grandeur and style, this is a home that will appeal to those looking for a prestigious, beautifully crafted home in a sought after location.
