It is my great pleasure to present 5 Oakdale St in the well-held, most desirable part of Floreat. The current owners have been here for 40 years and these properties very rarely come to market. This will be highly sought after.
Here we have a delightful residence built in the mid 50's. This beautiful home stands as a charming reminder of a more gracious era, it possesses a quiet dignity and enduring appeal, combining period character with the comforts of everyday living. Its presence upon the streetscape is both welcoming and distinguished, take time to enjoy the majesty of the tree canopy as you enter the driveway.
Within the home, many treasured features of the period remain lovingly preserved. High decorative ceilings lend a sense of elegance and space, while polished jarrah floors glow warmly beneath the natural light. Warmth is also provided by three fireplaces. Cooling is provided by evaporative air-conditioning with 7 ducts. Original timber windows and doors add authenticity and charm, creating a home that feels both open and inviting while retaining the unmistakable character of its vintage origins.
The home unfolds through a sensible and accommodating floor plan designed for family life. The two original bedrooms are complemented by spacious wardrobes. Two extra bedrooms were added a few years ago. The bathroom area comprises a traditional bathroom with bath, a separate room with shower and a third room with toilet and then the laundry - ah the good old days maintaining the home's traditional character.
I am sure this home was designed for entertaining and welcoming people because as soon as you enter you know you are in for something special – I can personally testify to this. There's the most relaxing lounge room, enjoy music, a cup of tea or wine by the fire or however you love to relax. The kitchen is functional, efficient and central. It is adjacent to a magnificent formal dining room on one side and on the other is a flexible spacious family area.
Outside there are three distinct garden/lawn areas, so plenty of options are available. Continue with the beautiful gardens, fruit trees, other majestic trees and manicured lawns or even convert one of these oases into a sparkling pool. There is a double carport at the front and shed at the rear. The area of the property is a generous 885sqm.
The property rests within a close-knit and welcoming community where neighbours know and care for one another. Daily amenities are easily reached, including Floreat Forum and The Herdsman Market. Schooling is well provided for with Floreat Park Primary and Shenton College both within the local catchment and Newman College, John XX111 College, St Marys and Hale nearby as well as the prestigious Western Suburbs schools. Down the road is the luscious green Alderbury Park. You are also about halfway between City/Floreat beach and the CBD. The location is IDEAL and treasured.
There are many gems, hideaways, retreats and spaces that provide a setting that invites simple pleasures of quiet moments of reflection, morning/afternoon tea, or the grand occasion of a big celebration. This property has been so well lived and loved but now is the time for a very lucky owner to move in and enjoy.
