“TRADITIONAL PEPPERMINT GROVE PARADISE”

FLOOR PLAN AVAILABLE ON REQUEST
INSPECT BY APPOINTMENT ONLY

OFFERS CLOSING BY 5PM ON THE 18TH SEPTEMBER 2017 (unless sold prior).

There's no place more special than a traditional Peppermint Grove home, and this sprawling residence is an especially wonderful example of why so many buyers aspire to set down their roots in this area. Built around the turn of the century and cherished by the current owner for the last 45 years, the home is incredibly spacious, and teeming with historic character. The huge backyard, swimming pool, and wonderful indoor-outdoor living zones promise many happy years for the next family who make it their home.

On arrival, a manicured garden and story-book faade provide a hint of the elegance that lays within. Stepping inside, the home's charming personality is displayed in all its glory - towering high ceilings, grand archways, stunning solid timber floorboards, ceiling roses, and all the other workmanship this era is known for. They simply don't build homes like this anymore!

Twenty years ago, the home was extended, with the addition of the kitchen, living and dining area. These stunning open plan areas cascade out to the backyard and swimming pool. Enjoy relaxed afternoons with friends and family under the shade of the pergola, or head to the north-facing return veranda (aptly positioned to catch all-day sun in the winter months).

The home is laid out to allow for so much space and separation. Downstairs contains the master suite (with ensuite & walk-in robe), 2 additional bedrooms opening to a veranda, a large office by the entrance, a formal lounge room, and the open plan living areas. Upstairs has the fourth bedroom, third bathroom, a games room, study nook, and a huge balcony overlooking the backyard. This versatile space is perfect for an older child or au pair.

While the home is in good structural condition, those with a keen eye for interior decoration will recognise fantastic potential for gentle updates throughout. Fresh window treatments, painting, and other minor improvements will transform the interior, and can be achieved without any downtime.

In the leafy surrounds of one of Australia's most beautiful suburbs, this property is just 5 minutes walk from the sheltered waters of Freshwater Bay. You can easily stroll down to the library, Cottesloe Central, and Napoleon Street - all the boutiques, cafs, restaurants, and amenities that this area is famed for are at your fingertips. Cottesloe Train Station is also less than 10 minutes walk, providing painless access to Fremantle, the CBD, and beyond. This is also a wonderful area for families children, with Presbyterian Ladies' College and St Hilda's a few minutes walk from your front gate, and a handful more highly regarded private schools in the vicinity.

Don't settle for anything less!
