Beyond the big peppermint on the verge in Lyons Street – where kids still play in the street - this lovely renovated and extended 1960s home unfolds in surprising ways. From the sparkling pool in the private gardens, up to the fabulous loft that is every teenager's dream, this solid home has been transformed and extended in a fresh palette of minimalist white.
The veranda wraps around the front and the side, with two entries to the open-plan kitchen and dining areas. The jarrah floors are original, and the kitchen is sharply contemporary, with glossy white cabinetry, black stone bench tops and a big Smeg range. Down the jarrah corridor are two north-facing carpeted bedrooms with built-in-robes; a bathroom with two vanities and frameless glass shower, then a home office.
Stepping down to the extension, a second zone unfolds: another north-facing bedroom, and the master bedroom with walk-through robe and dual access en-suite bathroom. Through double doors is another living space, with French doors to the alfresco and outdoor kitchen. Surrounded by greenery, it's a lovely private place to dine and entertain, with travertine tiling around the glass-walled pool, and a cascading water blade feature in the stone wall.
Back inside, upstairs the vast room with dramatic white angled ceiling and heaps of space for a living area as well as a bed and study zone.
Offering four bedrooms, with two separate living areas, an office, and a vast loft with space for a 5th bedroom, living and study, this wonderful family home is flexible enough for everyone to have their space, as well as enjoying getting together around the outdoor kitchen by the pool.
Lyons Street is renowned for its family friendly vibe. It's a quiet, tree-lined street protected from the coastal winds, where you can walk to everything you need – pick up a coffee before or after your morning swim at Grant Street beach, have a coffee at Longview, Little Sup or Eric Chamberlain, lunch at The Shore House and an afternoon drink at The Cottesloe Beach Hotel or one of the bars along Marine Parade and finish up with dinner at Il Lido or Indigo Oscar. And you're so close to shopping, excellent schools, transport and did we mention the beach?
Come and explore how family life can unfold in Perth's most desired suburb.
