End Date Sale - Absolutely ALL OFFERS to be presented by Tuesday 12th May 2026 at 5pm unless sold prior.
Defined by its gabled form, lacework verandah and character façade, this Federation era cottage presents exactly as expected from the street. What sits behind is not immediately apparent, revealing a home of considerable scale, carefully curated over time - positioned just steps from Beaufort Street (approximately a 3-minute walk), yet set within a quiet, tree-lined street that feels removed from the energy nearby.
The front of the home holds firmly to its origins. Jarrah floors, detailed ceilings with central roses, and the presence of an ornate fireplace establish a series of rooms grounded in their time. Original pressed tin has been thoughtfully preserved through its use in creating the decorative plaster moulds, allowing the intricate detailing to live on as a refined reference to the home's foundations, while ceiling heights and proportions reinforce its character.
Generous bedrooms and a dedicated study are positioned across this part of the home in keeping with the original layout, each maintaining the same sense of volume and separation.
The original character continues through the centre of the home, where separate living and dining have been adapted to suit a more contemporary way of living, while still working within the proportions of the existing structure.
A central country-style kitchen introduces warmth through custom timber cabinetry, supported by a Falcon range cooker, an integrated cool room fridge, and connection to the dining space that keeps movement efficient and direct.
Outdoor living extends naturally from here. The courtyard is paved and established, framed by low maintenance planting and softened by a vine-laden arbour that provides shade through the warmer months. Covered areas allow it to function across seasons without adjustment.
Above, a second level introduces an entirely new dimension. Raked ceilings and exposed timber beams create a lighter structure, where detailing is simpler and the volume more open. This level holds additional bedrooms, a second living area, an expansive sunroom and two bathrooms, allowing it to operate independently when required. The layout allows the home to shift with ease, offering separation when needed while still maintaining connection across both levels.
Across both levels, five bedrooms and a dedicated study are supported by multiple bathrooms, including a newly renovated main bathroom on the ground floor, finished with full height tiling, a double vanity and premium fittings. Hydronic heating and ducted reverse cycle air conditioning extend throughout the home, providing comfort across seasons.
Secure off-street parking is provided via an automatic gate, with additional street permits available.
Beaufort Street's cafés, dining and everyday amenity are quite literally moments away, with nearby parklands including Forrest Park, off-leash areas and well-regarded schooling all within easy reach.
