What we love
The elevated cul-de-sac setting and the spacious 503sqm (approx.) street-front block that is nestled far enough back from the road that you can take in the stunning treetop views of beautiful Lake Gwelup Reserve from the privacy of your very own spectacular front deck. Originally built in 1965, this charming 3-bedroom 2-bathroom home has preserved all of its character from yesteryear, despite having undergone some impressive renovations and extensions in recent times. Solid Jarrah floorboards, feature wooden skirting boards and trimmings and nostalgic ceiling cornices all remain, whilst the large double garage still remains under croft and even boasts extended storage space for good measure.
The pitched alfresco-style entertaining deck with protective cafe blinds is accessible via a staircase from the tiered front yard that is screened by a lovely white picket fence and gate. Bi-folding doors off the welcoming front lounge room also extend out to the deck, whilst the backyard - headlined by a spacious patio/verandah deck with its own cafe blinds for further entertaining - can also be accessed via double French doors from an impeccably-revamped kitchen and dining area with split-system air-conditioning, sparkling stone bench tops, a breakfast bar for casual meals, tiled splashbacks, double sinks, a water-filter tap, a Smeg five-burner gas cooktop, a Smeg stainless-steel dishwasher and integrated microwave and double-oven appliances of the same brand.
A large master suite is the pick of the bedrooms with its walk-in wardrobe addition, ceiling fan, blend of timber and carpeted flooring, double French doors opening out to a private front deck with a leafy vista and a quality ensuite-bathroom extension with more views.
What to know
Folding doors reveal a cleverly concealed European-style laundry off the dining area, making the most of the wall space that is on offer. The powder room has also been refurbished, as have the floor tiles in the main family bathroom that complement a shower and storage cupboard. Both remaining bedrooms are generous in size, enjoy splendid window views and have feature white plantation shutters.
Extras include a delightful backyard lawn area, reticulated garden beds and an instantaneous gas hot-water system. This solid brick-and-tile residence is also just footsteps away from bus stops, Our Lady of Good Counsel School, Newborough Primary School, sporting and leisure facilities and the exciting Karrinyup Shopping Centre redevelopment. A short stroll to picturesque Lake Gwelup itself is also an added bonus, whilst the likes of St Mary's Anglican Girls' School, Churchlands Senior High School, Hamersley Public Golf Course, the prestigious Lake Karrinyup Country Club, the freeway, Trigg and Scarborough Beaches, natural bushland walking trails and coastal cafes and restaurants are all within a very, very close proximity. Talk about location, location, location!
