Set in the heart of leafy Floreat, this mid-century home with architect-designed additions offers wonderful family living across generous, well-designed interiors and beautiful gardens.
From the street you can see how the original home has been gently updated to provide easy modern living without losing its charm. The well-utilised front garden has a double carport with a skillion roof, additional parking for a third vehicle or trailer, plus a fenced lawn area that's great for kids to play.
Inside, the original home offers excellent family separation with a large master bedroom suite, oversized walk-in robe and comfortable ensuite to one side. In the children's wing are three more bedrooms and a second bathroom. Between the two bedroom zones, the original lounge area features polished Jarrah timber boards and offers a second living space for family members to watch TV, entertain friends or for children to play.
A modern extension makes this a very liveable family home. Timber steps lead down to a beautiful open-plan kitchen, meals and family room with a gable ceiling and a wall of windows looking out to greenery beyond. This is a large space that not only looks good but also functions extremely well for family life, easy cooking and entertaining.
The kitchen offers plenty of space with an island bench, Smeg oven and stovetop and lots of storage. Next door is an oversized laundry that could also incorporate a scullery or chef's office, should you wish.
A wall of windows and sliding doors leads out to a low-maintenance yet lush garden, with steps leading down to the beautiful, solar heated pool. Parents can keep an eye on the kids while cooking dinner, then serve it outside in the covered alfresco area with its own built-in Weber barbecue. The garden wraps around the house, past a prolific lemon tree, to the front garden's fenced lawn area, making this a perfect outdoor space for kids.
Located on a peaceful tree-lined street, the setting is ideal: you're a short walk to Perry Lakes, with its beautiful nature reserves and playgrounds; Floreat Forum is nearby for all your shopping, banking and other needs, while the Kirwan Street precinct is just around the corner for coffee or a relaxed weekend breakfast.
Positioned in the catchment for Floreat Park Primary and Shenton College, this home is also within easy reach of some of Perth's best sporting facilities including Wembley Sports Park, HBF Stadium, basketball and athletics centres - not to mention the beach just a short drive away.
Thoughtfully extended and beautifully maintained by its current owners, this is a classic family home that's ready to move into and enjoy - come and see for yourself!
