This is a true 'family home' in every sense of the word. Nearly two decades of timeless family memories have been created within this beautiful, spacious home. With lovely gardens featuring a tropical cabana and swimming pool - this original Californian bungalow exudes warmth and character and would be suited to both young families and those with teenagers alike.
Unmistakable vibes of warmth and ease are felt upon entering this inviting family home with its open plan interconnected living zones – all framing lush gardens and full of natural light.
A charming gabled roof façade and grand brick-paved driveway lead to an elevated front porch - setting the scene upon moving through the home.
Inside, a large formal lounge room and adjoining sitting room (or snug) with raw-finish jarrah floors, high ceilings, decorative cornices and generous timber sash windows. A free-standing wood stove is the central living space is ideal for those rainy, winter nights, with a cosy fire adding extra warmth to the house.
Seamless views to the garden and pool are captured from the north-facing open plan living, kitchen and dining - awash in natural light, French doors, and optimised by a double-height vaulted ceiling revealing the mezzanine above.
Features such as a central Indian marble island bench with an organic, 'wave inspired' timber insert, and free standing wood stove in the dining area are offset by hard-wearing terracotta floor tiles, soft-closing cabinetry and an adjoining laundry.
Downstairs there are two bedrooms, separated by a blue and white bathroom, which are fitted with split-system air-conditioning units, making this wing of the house perfect for a teenagers space or private guest area.
Upstairs a Swedish inspired, open landing overlooks ground floor living and frames elevated pool and garden views - also admired from the master suite. Exposed timber beams, timber blinds, and a vaulted ceiling evoke luxe Bali-villa vibes, with a connecting walk-in-robe and ensuite bathroom, making this a wonderful parent retreat.
There are two more bedrooms with scenic views complete the floor – one is currently a study with a generous walk-in robe or it could easily be changed into a bedroom and study nook.
The generous garden with beautiful mature trees, is perfect for kids as much as it is for adults, with its pool & Bali inspired Cabana to relax in.
Ideally located within walking distance to Bicton Primary School, beautiful Bicton Baths and the river foreshore, community coffee-shops, supermarkets and public transport, this is a home that grows to accommodate families at every stage of life and after nearly 20 years with the current family, it's time for a new owner to step forward, put their own stamp on and live, grow and create new family memories within the home.
