What a unique opportunity to secure an amazing 3485sqm of River front bliss! Located on two separate titles you have the option of living your dream lifestyle now, and developing number 12 in the future for when you're ready to downsize, or investment project right now without the hassle of a subdivision.
Nestled within a tranquil cul-de-sac location like no other, this charming, character-laden and expansive 6 bedroom 4 bathroom family home sits on a huge block that stunningly backs on to our picturesque Swan River whilst boasting a multitude of living and entertainment options – and more indoor and outdoor space than you could ever imagine.
One of only a select few luxury properties in Bassendean that benefit from a breathtaking river frontage at the rear, this very special residence is immersed in Mother Nature and plays host to two separate gated driveways. Walk past the roses and immaculately-manicured gardens to a wraparound front entry terrace and verandah, before stepping foot inside to experience the property’s flawless charm, along with solid wooden floorboards and soaring high ceilings that almost take you on a journey back through time.
Double French doors open into a huge formal front lounge room with a gas fireplace, whilst a large formal-dining room is carpeted for comfort and sits privately behind a single French door of its own. A spacious double-sized home office has two built-in wooden desks, stunning white plantation window shutters, ample custom timber cabinetry and access out on the back verandah for another vantage point of the amazing water view.
Near here, the fifth bedroom has full-height mirrored built-in wardrobes, whilst the sixth bedroom enjoys semi-ensuite access into a delightful fourth bathroom. The spare third bathroom has a shower, bathtub, powder-room access and a mesmerising river vista from within.
An impeccably-tiled open-plan family, dining and kitchen area behind double French doors is where most of your casual time will be spent, with full-height windows providing some of the best river views you are ever likely to see and a butler’s pantry with an additional cupboard complementing sparkling granite bench tops, solid custom oak cabinetry, double sinks, an appliance nook, a five-burner gas cooktop, an integrated Miele dishwasher and quality integrated Miele oven, microwave, steam-oven, convection oven and warming-drawer appliances.
A laundry off the kitchen can also be found on the ground floor, complete with a clothing chute from the top level, a storage cupboard, a fold-out ironing board, external access and more. The list goes on.
Upstairs, a massive master retreat sits behind the peace and quiet of double doors and headlines the sleeping quarters with its fitted walk-in dresser with timber built-in robes, a custom wooden make-up/pamper nook, white bi-fold plantation shutters, awe-inspiring north-south panoramic views that encompass the river, hills, trees and waterside parklands across at Fishmarket Reserve and a spacious ensuite – bubbling spa bath, shower, toilet, twin vanities, river glimpses and all. Double doors off the bedroom suite also extend out to a wraparound balcony and courtyard with its own pleasant river aspect for you to absorb. You couldn’t make it up – it really is that special.
Neighbouring the latter on the top floor are a second bedroom with full-height mirrored built-in robes and river and lovely park views to wake up to, third and fourth bedrooms with huge fitted walk-in robes, a river outlook from the fourth bedroom, a sleek main family bathroom with a shower, heated towel rack, twin basins and two skylights, a storeroom, separate toilet and a carpeted activity room that the kids will absolutely love. Space will never be at a premium up here, that’s for sure.
Back downstairs, three sets of separate double doors ensure that the main living spaces seamlessly flow outside to a magnificent timber-lined alfresco-entertaining area. There, a remote-controlled “vergola”, three ceiling fans and a feature tree-trunk bar space are accompanied by a stainless-steel Ferguson barbecue and grill, a retractable stainless-steel commercial range hood, a Miele coffee machine, an integrated dishwasher, a Vintect drinks fridge and bi-fold doors, linking the alfresco to spectacular birdlife, more tree-lined river views and a hand-made firepit courtyard.
Custom stonework and steps lead you all the way down to the riverbank where you will find your own private beach at low-tide. This sprawling acreage also plays host to a full lockable side wine cellar with power and plumbing, as well as a remote-controlled double garage with a storage area and lock-up workshop with benches. There is also a single carport with internal shopper’s entry to the house – as if you didn’t already have more than enough parking space available to you.
It’s all about location, location, location and the reality of living just footsteps away from both Success Hill Reserve and the Success Hill Train Station. Bassendean Oval and Bassendean Shopping Centre are only a short drive away too, as are the likes of top schools and educational facilities. Stroll to the popular Guildford coffee strip too, with major arterial roads, Perth Airport and even our famous Swan Valley all within arm’s reach. What a spot.
It is safe to say, there really is nothing else quite like this on the market today. It’s one of a kind, that’s for sure!
