Positioned within a picturesque, tree-lined street rich in architectural history and charm is this enchanting Federation style character home. Offering a harmonious blend of original features with contemporary touches for modern living, it's the quintessential old meets new on one of Subiaco’s best streets. Hidden behind the privacy of established hedges and neat limestone and timber surrounds, the traditional bullnose veranda, classic tuck pointed red brick and colourful leadlight front door offer a wonderful ode to its 1920s origins. Enter through the wide veranda to spacious interiors and precious original features including jarrah floorboards and a striking ornate archway sitting pride of place above the central hallway. Four generous bedrooms are positioned at the front of the home filled with timeless charm; sweeping high ceilings, intricate ceiling roses, wide skirting boards and period fireplaces with decorative glazed brick bases. A large study with a wall of smart storage is perfect for those who work from home and can just as easily be transformed into an activity/playroom or fifth bedroom for a growing family. The kitchen is well appointed with soft close cabinetry, stone benchtops, glossy white (vertically stacked) subway tiling, double sink and premium AEG European appliances including a five burner gas stove top, electric oven and dishwasher. It enjoys a lovely outlook to the secure back yard with landscaped surrounds. The open plan kitchen, living and dining evokes a wonderful sense of space and light; open up the double doors to invite the outdoors in and enjoy endless summers on the east facing back deck overlooking the sparkling pool and manicured back garden. Take your pick from alfresco dining with loved ones, a cup of morning coffee to the sound of birdsong overhead or a quiet evening drink as the sun sets. This is the perfect space for lazy weekend brunches too before wandering down to the Subi Farmer’s Markets or a spot of shopping along Rokeby Road. The family bathroom has been beautifully renovated with luxurious fittings; a sleek double vanity, toilet, walk-in frameless shower with rainwater shower head and a deep soak bathtub for that spa-like feel. A second bathroom with a shower and toilet comes off the large laundry for added convenience. There’s plenty of storage available and exterior access down the side. Contemporary touches that elegantly accentuate the period features include modern light fittings against the decorative ceiling roses, stylish white plantation shutters, ducted air conditioning and ceiling fans for added comfort. This location has easy walkability to the very best of Subiaco living on your doorstep; lush green parklands, brilliant schools and daycares in the vicinity and Kings Park around the corner. It has direct access to Perth CBD as well as an array of shops, cafes and restaurants by car, bus or bike. Subiaco is a hub of cultural activity that effortlessly infuses the arts, fine dining and entertainment with plenty of outdoor activities on offer and respect for the natural environment. It’s no wonder it was recently rated as Australia’s most liveable city. Don’t miss this wonderful opportunity to secure this stunning abode filled with historical character and charm, tastefully updated over the years for easy modern living.
