Just metres from the sparkling blue Swan River, on a quiet tree-lined street sits this gracious and charming home, where modern convenience and stunning character features blend seamlessly to create an ideal family home you can?t help but fall in love with. Completed in 1991, this beautiful two storey home was built in Federation style, with impeccable attention to detail. Bay windows and French doors at every turn allow natural light to flood in, creating a beautiful sense of light and space throughout the home.
The rear of the property offers something very unique and special ? a private walled garden with a beautiful ornate glass conservatory enclosing the large heated swimming pool, surrounded by wonderful mature shade trees, sprawling lawns and lush sunken garden beds. The conservatory even houses a bathroom with shower and storage room for added convenience. Whether it?s hosting unforgettable European garden parties, watching the kids safely play to their heart?s content or just sitting back with a cup of tea and listening to the birds singing in the trees, this is the ultimate family garden and tranquil retreat.
Be welcomed at arrival with a sweeping circular driveway, embracing the lush established gardens with lovely roses and fabulous mature trees.
Stepping through the leadlight front door, you?d be forgiven for thinking you?d stepped into a beautifully restored turn of the century home ? with traditional wide Jarrah polished floorboards, high decorative ceilings and arches across the hallway inviting you in. A bright and spacious formal lounge sits to the right, enjoying abundant natural light from plentiful windows, highlighted further by the cream paintwork, warm golden window treatments and brass chandelier and curtain rods. Across the hall sits a complementary formal dining area, with plush neutral carpet and a built in black marble servery and bar complete with storage and sink. Both formal living areas feature 18th Century French marble fireplaces. This fabulous entertaining space also benefits from the same gorgeous windows and French doors opening to the alfresco entertaining deck.
Beyond the hallway (also accessible from both the formal lounge) you?ll find an area enjoying a more contemporary appeal ? an open plan kitchen / dining area with sleek, clean lines, large natural stone floor tiles and modern white gloss cabinetry. The spacious kitchen has undergone a complete transformation, with white stone benchtops, marbled white tile splashbacks, plenty of storage and soft-close drawers plus quality appliances to appease the most avid chef and entertainer, all in brand new condition. The continuation of the custom windows throughout this area carries on the natural flow from the front of the home, blending effortlessly despite the contrast in style.
To the right of the entrance is a fabulous and private master suite with a domed decorative ceiling, walk-in robe and European style ensuite. There is also a light filled study, under-stair storage and a powder room off the hallway providing convenient access for guests from the living areas. The accommodation is extremely flexible ? while the downstairs suite offers great separation, it would also make a fabulous guest suite (or home office if required), as upstairs offers a second master suite, ideal for those with younger children.
As well as the second master suite with walk in robe, ensuite and large timber decked balcony overlooking the rear garden, upstairs also boasts a further three bedrooms with built in robes, one with its own ensuite, plus a spacious family sitting room or games room and family bathroom with large corner spa bath. Most of the upstairs rooms enjoy wonderful leafy green outlooks to either the front or rear gardens.
Additional features include;
? Indoor/ outdoor 20m heated swimming lap pool for year-round exercise and enjoyment.
? Fantastic modern features such as underfloor heating, European style central heating, ducted air conditioning in the upper level and dining area plus split systems in the downstairs master and kitchen, ducted vacuum system, intercom, security system and bore-reticulated gardens.
? Completely renovated modern kitchen with quality appliances including Asko dishwasher, Bosch stainless steel electric double oven, Bosch gas cooktop, and Siemens stainless steel microwave oven.
? Large circular brick driveway plus long driveway to the double undercover carport offers plenty of off street parking.
? With a rear ROW to Tree Martin Lane, there is also great potential for installation of a granny flat or additional garaging.
? Ideally located, with the Swan River and parks only 350m , Claremont Quarter shopping and some of Perth?s top schools less than 5 minutes away, plus minutes to buses and easy access to UWA, hospitals and the city.
