59A Strickland Road, Ardross, WA 6153

Positioned on the Mount Pleasant border, just around the corner from Mount Pleasant Primary School, 59A Strickland Road delivers a level of quality and scale rarely seen in Ardross. Built by Webb & Brown-Neaves, the bespoke residence spans approximately 420sqm of total area across two levels, with oversized living spaces, substantial bedrooms and extensive indoor and outdoor entertaining. An impressive 18.6m frontage completes a home that presents with the polish of a display residence while retaining the warmth and practicality required for family life.

The quality is evident from the street. Architecturally landscaped gardens designed by Tristan Peirce and installed by Tim Davies Landscaping frame a contemporary west-facing façade defined by cedar-lined eaves, a feature stone wall extending across both levels, frameless glass balustrading, smoked UV-protected glazing and a cedar garage door. Established mature trees bring softness and privacy to the setting, while the fully reticulated gardens can be managed remotely by smartphone.

A generous entry introduces the home’s stone flooring, high ceilings and abundance of natural light. The ground floor features 32-course ceilings, with 30-course ceilings continuing upstairs, while carefully positioned north-facing windows draw sunshine into the living areas and bedrooms. Recessed sheer and blockout curtains provide a beautifully resolved finish without interrupting the home’s clean architectural lines.
The exceptional proportions are most evident within the expansive kitchen, dining and family domain overlooking the rear garden and swimming pool. Its eastern orientation welcomes the morning light, while a substantial island approaching four metres creates a natural centre for family breakfasts, casual meals and entertaining. Stone benchtops and extensive custom cabinetry by Maker Designer Kitchens are complemented by a Miele induction cooktop with Schweigen integrated extraction, two Miele pyrolytic ovens, an integrated Miele microwave, coffee machine and dishwasher, an integrated Fisher & Paykel refrigerator and filtered water.

A walk-through pantry and scullery extends the kitchen workspace with further custom cabinetry and extensive storage. It connects directly to the well-appointed laundry, creating a practical continuation of the kitchen and keeping preparation and daily household tasks neatly contained.

Triple-stacking doors open the main living area to the north-facing alfresco, creating an effortless connection between the interior, gardens and swimming pool. Cedar lining, an electric outdoor blind and integrated sound make the alfresco comfortable throughout the year, while an underground gas line provides the option to connect a barbecue or create an outdoor kitchen in the future. Travertine paving continues through the courtyard and around the pool, bringing a consistent sense of quality to the entire outdoor setting.

The approximately 3m by 7m saltwater concrete pool is finished with mosaic tiling, bench seating and tiled step treads. An electric heat pump can warm the water to approximately 38 degrees, extending its use beyond the summer months. Mature landscaping creates a private green backdrop, giving the rear garden the atmosphere of a secluded resort.

Three distinct living areas provide genuine separation across the home. The dedicated theatre features custom wall panelling, built-in cabinetry, integrated surround sound and plush wool carpeting, while the substantial upstairs sitting room is finished with American oak flooring and opens to an oversized balcony overlooking the street. Its own kitchenette includes extensive cabinetry, a dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave nook and filtered water, giving teenagers an ideal space to relax, entertain friends and enjoy greater independence.
A large dedicated study overlooks the front garden, providing a calm and impressive place to work from home. While designed and currently used as an office, its proportions allow it to be adapted into a fifth bedroom if required.
The accommodation continues the home’s exceptional sense of scale. Upstairs, the resort-style main suite features American oak flooring and a recessed ceiling with feature lighting. The bedroom leads through to an extensive walk-in wardrobe with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry before transitioning into the marble-floored ensuite.

Marble benchtops and a marble hexagonal feature wall give the ensuite a distinctive finish, complemented by a full-width twin vanity, a large doorless walk-through shower with dual shower heads and a separate private WC. Two further upstairs bedrooms comfortably accommodate king-sized beds and include built-in wardrobes. They are supported by the main bathroom, which provides a full-size bath, large shower and stone-topped vanity, together with a separate WC.

The substantial ground-floor guest bedroom includes plush wool carpeting, a large built-in wardrobe and its own ensuite, with an adjoining powder room for visitors. Its position and proportions also allow it to function as an alternative main suite, making the layout particularly well suited to guests, older children or multigenerational families.

All bathrooms continue the same considered approach, with stone benchtops, generously sized showers and full-height tiling throughout the wet areas. Stone flooring extends through the principal ground-floor living spaces and bathrooms, while American oak carries through the upper-level living areas and main suite. Quality wool carpeting adds comfort to the minor bedrooms, guest suite and theatre.

The home’s technology and infrastructure have been planned with equal care. Actron ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning and the security system can both be controlled remotely through smartphone apps, while structured data cabling and dedicated data points service the television areas and study. This supports hardwired internet, the home’s Wi-Fi network and connected security systems, providing reliable connectivity throughout.

A video intercom at the main entrance allows visitors to be viewed and recorded when the doorbell is activated. Further features include NBN connected directly to the home, integrated speakers across key living and entertaining areas, rooftop solar panels and solar hot water, with solar performance also able to be monitored remotely. The generous double garage completes the practical offering with a cedar door, fitted flooring and internal access.

The position brings some of the best of Ardross and Mount Pleasant into the daily routine. Mount Pleasant Primary School is a short walk around the corner, while Westfield Booragoon is approximately 700 metres away. The Good Grocer and Woolworths Mount Pleasant are also nearby, with the Swan River approximately a 15-minute walk from the home and Shirley Strickland Reserve, Layman Park and numerous other green spaces within easy reach.

Applecross Senior High School zoning adds further long-term appeal. A bus stop approximately 100 metres away on Coomoora Road provides convenient connections to the CBD, Westfield Booragoon and Fremantle, together with school services for Wesley College and Penrhos College.

A benchmark Ardross residence where exceptional craftsmanship, extraordinary proportions and beautifully resolved family living come together.
