Exquisitely renovated, this weatherboard Federation hits that sweet spot between historical charm & modern luxury. It radiates with late-1800s character - soaring 3.4 metre ceilings, stunning Jarrah timberwork, grand architraves & skirtings, two working fireplaces, and more.
You will also love the space it provides - 3 bedrooms, a study, 2 living areas, plus a charming backyard and a vine-draped alfresco entertaining area.
The house-proud owners have invested significantly in the home, renovating with a view of it withstanding another 100 years. They also completed a stunning bathroom renovation last year, replaced the insulation and external boards in 2014, and restumped the house on purchase in 2012. All the way through, you'll find thoughtful modernisations, done in a way that does not compromise the property's unique heritage charm.
Stunning doors made from 100-year-old Jasper Fir timber take you through to the home's main living hub. A gas fireplace keeps the atmosphere cosy in winter, while oversized glass doors wrap you in garden views.
Equal parts stylish and practical, the kitchen is exceptionally well planned, with no awkward spaces or crammed corners. The benchtops are Caesarstone (also found in the adjacent laundry), and it's equipped with a 900mm entertainer's oven by Smeg, a 6 burner cooktop, range hood, and Franke glass sink.
But there's much more than meets the eye. To name just a few special features, there are: outdoor & indoor speakers (controlled from an iPod/iPhone dock), 5 x split system air-conditioning units, safety glass, a secure triple-lock flyscreen at the entrance, and an amazingly large roof cavity that's perfect if you require extra storage space.
Stepping outside, the gardens are green and inviting. A well-established wisteria vine crawls above the trellises, blooming vibrantly through Spring and Summer. This delightful backyard strikes a very desirable balance - you are surrounded by lush natural beauty, but there's no arduous maintenance required. There's also reticulation, an outdoor shower, and additional storage under the decking.
The central location is a wonderful place to set down your roots - walk to Cowden Park (2 mins), West Leederville Primary (5 mins), Lake Monger (6 mins), or the Oxford Street cafe strip (12 mins). The property has easy access to the Mitchell Freeway ramps, and is just 2.5km from Perth CBD. Catch the free CAT bus, or cycle into work in around 5 minutes.
