3/116 Matheson Road, Applecross WA 6153

Set in a private enclave on Matheson Road amongst established trees and a manicured streetscape is this beautifully crafted 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home that exudes warmth and character like a Spanish villa set in the heart of Andalusia - a touch of Europe along the jacaranda tree-lined streets of Applecross.

You'll delight in the melody of birds chirping as you soak in the warm winter sun, the sensual sounds of a Spanish guitar playing in the background as you entertain family and friends with a fine selection of tapas, home-made chorizo and sangria. The bespoke fireplace in the living room is an impressive feature, matched by a gourmet chef's kitchen with copious amounts of granite bench top space (including a breakfast bar that seats 6). There's a suite of stainless steel appliances including a 5-burner gas cooktop with industrial-sized ventilator, built-in cabinetry with breakfast appliance cupboard and wine racks, plus more. A dining area that easily sits eight adjoins the kitchen along with an oversized walk in pantry with floor to ceiling storage. A separate laundry/utility and powder room completes the lower floor.

Stepping up to the second level reveals a master bedroom and ensuite with twin-vanities along with a sizeable walk-in robe with built-in floor to ceiling cabinetry. Adjoining the master bedroom is a large and private conservatory space which is currently used as a home office, beautifully clad in warm timbers and full length concertina windows to let the cool summer breezes in. Two other bedrooms and a family bathroom complete the upper level.

Additional features and finishes include a fully ducted reverse cycle air-conditioning system, parking for two cars behind a solid timber garage door, secure gated street access, a front courtyard garden with patio covered BBQ/entertaining area, high-end Spanish floor tiles and electronic security system.

This is one of those special residences you'll fall in love with at first viewing.
