8 Kirwan Street, Floreat WA 6014

Nestled in the prime location of a whisper-quiet Floreat street, this circa-1950s front strata cottage has been splendidly transformed into a quaint 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home that combines both original and modern with comfortable low-maintenance living and sits within easy walking distance of lush sporting facilities, as well as a vibrant cafe lifestyle.

The property is also firmly entrenched within the sought-after Jolimont Primary School and Shenton College catchment zones, whilst the likes of bus stops, a plethora of local parklands, Floreat Forum Shopping Centre and the popular Fortysevenkirwanstreet cafe are also just footsteps away. Throw in a close proximity to the city, the freeway, HBF Stadium, Perry Lakes Reserve, Bold Park, Wembley Golf Course and beautiful beaches and you have yourself a place to both live in and love.

Beyond manicured front gardens lies a practical floor plan that has been largely unaltered and still features the high ceilings and solid Jarrah floorboards of yesteryear. Like the front master bedroom and its stylish art-deco elements, a welcoming lounge room will delight you with a pleasant garden aspect, alongside a working brick fireplace and a gas bayonet for extra heating if required.

The main bathroom and a second bathroom-come-laundry have both been cleverly revamped over time, as has a stunning central kitchen and dining area that includes sparkling stone bench tops, sleek white cabinetry, feature splashbacks, a five-burner Ariston gas cooktop/oven and a new Miele dishwasher as part of its impressive renovation. A study nook makes the most of the wall space on offer and seamlessly extends outdoors to a private rear entertaining area where a covered patio and an open barbecue deck sit side-by-side in total tranquillity.

What an absolute gem!
