Gracefully positioned behind an elegant perimeter fence of brick pillars with decorative wrought iron inserts, this magnificent Federation residence, originally constructed in the 1920s, is a masterclass in preserving timeless heritage while embracing sophisticated modern living.
Beyond the front gate, you will appreciate the manicured reticulated gardens, expansive rustic red brick pathways, which complement the dual verandahs with traditional turned timber posts and decorative fretwork.
Make your way through the traditional coloured leadlight entrance door and be welcomed by dark-stained jarrah floorboards, soaring ceilings, ornate cornicing, picture rails, and a striking central archway.
Positioned at the front of the home is the gracious formal lounge, with the original fireplace as its centrepiece. Across the hallway rests the large front bedroom, also with a character fireplace and ample space for additional dressers or furnishings. Both rooms include plantation shutters, which add that extra touch of elegance.
Further along is the master bedroom, an ideal fusion of classic and contemporary features, with the adjoining room having been transformed into a stylish ensuite featuring a decorative fireplace, freestanding bath, oversized double shower with full-height tiling, bespoke porcelain vanity with an expansive full-length basin, separate toilet, and generous walk-in robe.
Opposite the hallway is a sophisticated home office, which can alternate as an extra bedroom if required, and next to this rests the family bathroom, showcasing typical Federation floor and feature wall tiling.
The hero of the home rests towards the rear, which opens out to create a huge open-plan kitchen and dining area with a stunning designer kitchen, highlighted by the impressive dark polished concrete flooring.
The state-of-the-art kitchen was personally designed with custom cabinetry and includes stunning European porcelain benchtops, glass splashback, subtle LED feature lighting, an integrated dishwasher, an integrated double refrigerator/freezer, premium twin ovens with microwave and steam cooking functions, and pull-out pantry shelving, while the striking waterfall island incorporates precision-cut apertures housing the gas cooktop and an integrated downdraft rangehood for a beautifully minimalist finish.
Two separate adjoining living areas include an open television lounge and an additional large family room, highlighting an attractive wood-burning fireplace, creating the ideal ambient mood day and night.
One of the home's most inspired design features is the effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The dining area extends seamlessly into a fully enclosed alfresco pavilion, allowing it to function as one expansive entertaining space. Complete with an outdoor kitchen and built-in barbecue, this versatile area can be enclosed to provide security and year-round comfort or opened completely to embrace cooling breezes and views across the rear garden and elegant swimming pool.
Beyond the main living spaces, the home continues to impress with a dedicated study, plus a generous rear bedroom that offers a peaceful outlook over the gardens and features a well-crafted timber-lined bedhead recess with integrated reading lights and a separate make-up bench.
Nearby, the spacious laundry is finished with stone benchtops and is conveniently positioned beside the home's third bathroom, providing excellent functionality for family living and poolside guests alike.
An extra bonus is a practical attic storeroom, easily accessed via a pull-down staircase, offering valuable additional storage for suitcases or change-of-season clothing.
The home's gardens and rustic red brick paving areas provide additional outdoor entertaining space for lounging around with friends, while the impressive below-ground swimming pool, complete with a sophisticated perimeter overflow wet deck, creates a resort-inspired centrepiece.
Secure rear laneway access leads directly into the double garage, which also offers extra storage space and conveniently opens out to the pool area as well.
Extra features include ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning throughout, instantaneous gas hot water, and a combination of some windows with plantation shutters and others with electric blinds.
This sought-after location is only km from the CBD and is perfectly positioned between the tranquil Swan River foreshore and the vibrant Beaufort Street café and dining precinct.
