You wouldn't believe how close you are to the best of Claremont's local amenities when you retreat to your hidden sanctuary each day.
This urban oasis occupies a large 787sqm block in the heart of Claremont and boasts four generous bedrooms, a study, 2.5 bathrooms and multiple interior and exterior living spaces. The original circa 1940 character home underwent a labour of love to create the perfect home, brimming with luxury inclusions and meticulously extended to accommodate the modern family.
Beyond the high masonry wall, you'll find lush tropical gardens irrigated by reticulation and a sub-surface greywater system for the rear garden beds. The oversized cedar pivot door welcomes you inside, where a blend of original and recycled Jarrah floorboards flows throughout the home. On the left, a study features built-in bespoke wooden shelving, cabinetry and a desk - ideal for professionals working from home.
The open-plan living and dining area in the home's centre is an airy, light-filled space with impressive recessed ceilings, and an unobstructed outlook encompassing the tranquil rear gardens and spectacular circular swimming pool. Adjacent, the luxuriously appointed kitchen includes everything you need to cater for your family and guests and a vast Caesarstone island for them to gather around while you work your magic. A suite of high-end appliances includes a Miele integrated dishwasher, oven stack, cooktop and rangehood, a Kadeka wine fridge to keep your favourite bottles chilled, and a Zip Hydro tap. The huge walk-in pantry also has a convenient 'drop zone', with room to charge everyone's devices.
A separate lounge room in the original part of the home boasts period features, including a double entry, high ceilings with a decorative rose and a Jetmaster gas fireplace. Enjoy cosy family movie nights here or simply some peace while relaxing with a good book.
The bedroom wing comprises three spacious minor bedrooms with plantation shutters (two with built-in robes), a resort-style bathroom complete with an oval jet bath, a semi-frameless shower, a WC and separate powder room, a double linen closet and a deluxe laundry with plenty of storage. At the end of the hallway, the primary suite is a sanctuary you'll relish retreating to each day. Ample built-in robes, a sumptuous ensuite with a double shower and free-standing tub, and French doors opening onto the veranda and pool area are luxuries you'll never tire of.
Alfresco entertaining will always be a joyous occasion, whether entertaining friends on the expansive wraparound veranda or hopping in and out of the circular saltwater pool during the warmer months. Weatherboard cladding and a magnificent cedar-lined ceiling create an inviting outdoor area, with retractable shade blinds so you can enjoy it any time of the day. The lushly landscaped gardens feature outdoor pots, frangipanis, agaves, lemon and Tahitian lime trees, a grass trees and more - and a large area of lawn that the kids and pets will love.
The adjacent garage, with undercover access, has room for at least two cars and a generous separate storeroom. There is still space for a studio or retreat, with access to a floored mezzanine for additional storage.
The Claremont Quarter, Swanbourne Station, Scotch College, Lake Claremont and Swanbourne Village are moments from your hidden oasis. The sandy shores of Cottesloe Beach and Freshwater Bay are only a few minutes away, as are a selection of some of Perth's best schools.
This exceptional single-level residence will not disappoint.
