Stunning views to the city, Mts Melville and Clarence, over Princess Royal Harbour to Torndirrup and out to King George Sound will be an endless source of wonder for the new occupants of this exceptional property.
Sensational sunrises, yachts on the water, a close-up of the Brig Amity replica just below and an amazing array of birdlife and water fowl provide a year-round moving picture from the open-plan living spaces and rear balcony.
The extensive home is on the edge of the CBD, a short walk from the historic precinct and less than 500m from the shops and cafés of York Street. It occupies a big block of 1198sqm – a rare find so close to the city.
With the accent on Federation styling, the level-access home is built of oversized cream bricks with concrete window surrounds, a Colorbond roof and a bullnose front veranda.
Inside, modern appointments blend with features such as decorative hallway arches with corbels, polished jarrah floors, deep-cove cornices and ceiling roses, all finished in colours from a traditional palette.
Following the hall from the leadlight-panelled front door to the rear of the home, the spectacular views are revealed from the family room, dining area and kitchen, where windows along the back wall make the most of the outlook and glazed doors open onto a tiled, undercover balcony.
The kitchen, defined by a bulkhead ceiling, boasts a dishwasher, walk-in pantry and induction cook-top.
A little deck from here is also accessed via a lounge on the other side, another comfortable living option.
Three of the four bedrooms have en suite shower rooms and built-in robes, and the fourth has a robe and access to a guest toilet nearby.
A drive on one side leads to a garage under the back of the house. This has internal stairs to the family room and adjoins a terrific, powered workshop with a huge storage area. A second drive on the other side of the house provides guest parking and turning space.
The property is ideally set up for a bed and breakfast or Air BnB with most bedrooms having access to a bathroom or private ensuite (subject to local government approvals).
At the back, the land is terraced with lawns and natives, and offers ample scope for growing veggies and planting fruit trees.
The city location, amazing views, block size and space in abundance make a rare combination that's sure to impress those in the market for a truly outstanding, quality home.
