We all know our city is built around the river, but observing that geography in panoramic detail every day really is something else.
Survey the Swan and its surrounds from this family home where spaces are generous, design lines are simple, accommodation is flexible and the elevated northern aspect celebrates this remarkable location with Perth's best views.
The long open-plan kitchen, dining and living is on the upper level, where bi-fold windows open up completely to endlessly changing views down to the foreshore, over the curves of the river to Kings Park, Dalkeith, the Narrows Bridge, across to the causeway and around to the hills to the east. Here you are both in the environment and protected from it in a private space for all seasons.
The kitchen is large and luxuriously simple, with appliances concealed behind glowing cherrywood cabinetry, and there's a secluded sunny reading room on the southern side of this level.
With a discreet street presence featuring warm Donnybrook stone, entry to the mid-level is past a weeping willow and a waterfall through to the jarrah-floored lobby.
A light-filled study is a serene place to work and there are two bedrooms, each with en-suite, with the master bedroom offering views over the river and city skyline.
A living room opens to a large covered terrace for entertaining, with the vista beyond.
Down the stairs to the lower level, the home's generosity and flexibility is even more apparent in this separate living zone ideal for teenagers or extended family.
There's a soundproofed music room, theatre room, ensuite bathroom and bedroom overlooking the rear gardens and light-filled living room or games room opening up to the covered alfresco.
This is a fabulous independent entertaining area, where you can step across the lawns down to the saltwater pool and relax in the thatched gazebo. The double garage on this level offers side access through to the rear, giving independent entry to this lower living zone, which also has its own alarm security separate from the home's main security system.
In an exclusive, quiet little street set back from the river, just a stroll from waterside walking paths and Point Walter and close to schools, this is a warm, flexible home designed for clarity and liveability and to allow the astonishing views to shine.
