A CLASSIC WEST LEEDERVILLE RESIDENCE
Set on one of Perth's only heritage-listed streets and surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens, this graceful character property combines period charm with all the comforts of a modern family home.
Enclosed by a solid perimeter fence, the home has an inviting street presence, with a deep, wraparound veranda, a fishpond and a front garden of lush plants, including frangipani and agapanthus.
An arched entrance with bespoke leadlight panels around the front door leads past two double bedrooms, including a main suite with a renovated ensuite bathroom and working gas fire set into the original tiled timber fireplace. A cosy study to the rear can double as a fourth bedroom.
Living areas are free-flowing and offer views over the surrounding gardens through every window. A cosy formal living room with an original tiled fireplace is a great spot to curl up and relax, while the adjacent whitewashed dining room has bi-fold doors that open out to an extensive premium jarrah deck, creating a seamless link to the backyard. The kitchen is a blend of old and new with white gloss cabinets, a beautiful leadlight window, and a scullery area.
Up a winding timber staircase is a third double bedroom, ideal for guests or older children, with an adjacent powder room and long views over the surrounding streets.
With its timber decking, shaded lawn area, and pergola draped in wisteria and passionfruit, the backyard is enchanting. The carefully chosen plants add to the tranquil atmosphere, with the central feature a gnarled old olive tree. A laundry and outdoor bathroom are convenient and great for rinsing off after the beach. The double garage has leadlight French doors and attic storage.
The garden and living areas also benefit from perfect orientation, a valuable asset in Perth's climate: the trees of Holyrood Street protect the back garden from western sun, so it's cool and shady in summer, while northern light floods and warms the living areas in winter.
And Holyrood Street itself is a classic Perth address, with its character homes and a green tunnel of heritage-listed trees that are lit up at night. Between beach and city, it has excellent public transport links, is close to both Leederville and Subiaco for shopping and going out, and has the sought-after West Leederville Primary School just around the corner. Lake Monger is a brisk walk away for sport and recreation, and there are plenty of surrounding parks and playgrounds for kids and dogs.
