A rare opportunity exists to secure a distinctive family home in a sought after location in Nedlands.
Sitting on a quiet leafy street, just metres from Nedlands Primary School and a short walk to UWA, this stately Georgian home is the ultimate family abode.
A home built for raising children, it features light airy living spaces, generous sized bedrooms, a vast tree lined backyard and an impressive limestone outdoor entertaining area overlooking a pool.
Striking from all angles, this memorable two storey home, perched at the end of a long driveway with its red brick facade, sandstone columns and French windows, spawned many imitations after it was built and is well known in the Nedlands/Dalkeith enclave.
If ever there was a grand entrance, this is it. Behind the double doors and through the top French window hangs a gigantic chandelier dropping dramatically into the entryway, while the custom designed ironwork balustrade frames a majestic marbled staircase ? effortless elegance.
The sun-drenched kitchen is the heart of the home, with large windows looking out to the pool, perfect for parents to keep a watchful eye as the young ones splash about. The formal dining room, with glass double doors to the back garden and large adjoining lounge, look like an ad from an English Country Garden magazine, capturing perfectly the formality of yesteryear. The poolside outdoor entertaining area, with its limestone paving is the perfect location for dinners on balmy evenings and special celebrations, easily accommodating (the fussiest) of crowds.
A family home to grown in to as children grow up, the four bedrooms (all with robes) are large enough to cater for toddlers to young adults and a sunny study with balcony overlooking the back garden/pool provides a quiet spot for homework and later, university papers.
The master bedroom is spacious enough to waltz in, with a well-lit ensuite and complete with walk in robe and view to the tree lined streetscape below.
No detail has been forgotten in this home, decorative design elements abound, from reproduction cornices and dado detailing to carefully chosen chandeliers and moulded feature ceilings.
