The peaceful and enchanting facade of this immaculately-restored 1940s bungalow sets the scene for what epitomises warm and inviting, family-inspired living.
Commanding keen admiration from its proud presence on a tranquil, tree-lined street, this home adopts an aesthetically-pleasing appeal thanks to a stylish combination of white picket fencing, light-dappled landscaping, detailed 10ft ceilings, polished jarrah floors, picture and plate rails, deco lighting, stucco walls and plantation shutters.
With pleasing views to the front garden and
original leadlight windows, the big master bedroom has immediate access to the generous, white-washed bathroom (with large steel bath). The second and third bedrooms, also generously-sized (one with two modern, free-standing wardrobes), also enjoy soft natural lighting.
Admired for several comfortable living zones, including a wide and elevated front porch with set-back garden and street views, the heart of the home is its formal living room with a well-used Regency gas fire place and original leadlight window features.
An extra sitting room, which offers multi-purposes as a theatre room, home office or kids' play-room, extends from this popular living zone.
The welcoming kitchen with stylish granite benchtops, an abundance of heritage-style cabinetry, De Longhi oven and four-burner gas stove-top, and Fisher and Paykel dishwasher, conveniently flows from the main living areas, with the added advantage of views to an outdoor courtyard space offering potential for a potted herb garden, a jacuzzi or children's activity area.
Entertaining has, and always will be, an absolute breeze living in this home. With the addition of a glass enclosed, fully renovated sleep-out with built-in cocktail bar, mounted flat-screen TV, modern dark grey floor tiles and a continuous bifold glass door, the area extends to a protected alfresco with a well-established potted lime tree and in-ground dwarf lemon tree, offering year-round comfort from the elements. Discreetly located from here is a modest home gym (with its own split-system air-conditioning).
A large laundry with ample white cupboard storage and guest toilet, is also appropriately located from this zone.
Bordered by liquid limestone from the wide driveway and wrapping around to the rear of the home, the generous property includes a brick storage shed with lighting and 2 double power points.
Ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, new solar hot water tank with electric booster, electronic security and video security TV, window locks, reticulated garden (including two magnificent feature trees at the home's facade), NBN, as well as access to the Swan River and South Perth foreshore, the Mitchell Freeway and Canning Highway, an abundance of convenience stores and entertainment options, along with an excellent school network (namely, Como Primary & Como Senior High Schools, and Penrhos, Aquinas, and Wesley Colleges), all contribute to this home's picture-perfect appeal.
