23 Barnfield Road, Claremont WA 6010

Barnfield Cottage is the kind of home that will steal your heart as soon as you arrive at its picture perfect white picket fence.

It is a simply charming family home in the most convenient location, just walking distance from the Claremont Quarter, Swanbourne shops, private schools, train station and Lake Claremont.

Built in 1912, the limestone home is surrounded by garden beds filled with roses, agapanthus and bougainvillea all leading to a wraparound timber verandah that completes the nostalgia and romanticism of an Australian cottage.

Gleaming jarrah floorboards and timber fireplaces, leadlight details and decorative architraves from a bygone era when detail was key, combine seamlessly with today's conveniences such as modern bathrooms and kitchen, air-conditioning and stainless steel appliances.

There are three bedrooms located in the original front part of the home, the master featuring a walk-in robe, access to the main bathroom and a stunning ornate timber fireplace.

The two other bedrooms are queen sized and have soaring ceilings.

There is a room off the end of the hallway that has been turned into a playroom, but could also be used as a second lounge area or children's study zone. Overlooking the kitchen and dining space, it is perfect for keeping an eye on children.

An oversized picture window with garden views and large breakfast bar create a welcoming light and bright space where the action always is — in the kitchen.

Plenty of white cabinetry, stone-look bench tops, a Miele dishwasher, Bosch oven and gas cooktop and plenty of bench space ensure this is an easy area to prepare meals while still interacting with family or guests.

Off the open plan kitchen, dining and living area there is a separate toilet and combined laundry and shower room.

A garden oasis at the back of the property is a real highlight filled with established plants and trees. A paved limestone entertaining area is the perfect space for parties and dining under the shade of an old gum tree. The foliage from these established trees create a wonderful screen enclosing the space to create both a peaceful retreat and private entertaining area.

A long driveway at the side of the house can fit three cars plus room for one more car in the single garage.

A well located, easy lifestyle and charming cottage with modern conveniences awaits the new owners of this home.
