Occupying a commanding corner position and boasting secure gated access away from all of the hustle and bustle, this charming century-old 4 bedroom 2 bathroom home will capture your imagination with its stunning character, as well as a series of exemplary modern renovations that will set you and your loved ones up for many years to come.
A large wraparound Jarrah entry deck makes an instant first impression as you step into the property via either the front or side gate, with splendid leafy views and magical evening sunsets gracing the ideal platform from which you can watch both the kids and pets at play, within the security of a massive front-yard-lawn area. Internally, soaring high ceilings and solid wooden Jarrah floorboards help preserve the residence's original nostalgia of yesteryear, amidst other gorgeous classic features.
Off the entry, the third bedroom is fitted with full-height wall-to-wall built-in wardrobes and storage cupboards, with a spacious and separate lounge room comprising of a gas bayonet for heating, drop-down-ladder access up to an insulated and powered dust-proof storage attic and direct access out to the verandah deck. Also benefitting from access to and from the verandah is a versatile fourth bedroom - or potential study - with its own gas bayonet, a delightful mantlepiece and overall generous proportions.
An enormous central family/living room is the soul of the floor plan with its own gas bayonet, an additional gas fireplace under a timber mantlepiece and two striking chandelier light fittings, as well as access into a second bedroom with full-height built-in robes and storage cupboards. Also off here sits a stylishly-revamped main bathroom with a claw-foot bathtub, shower, vanity and toilet, along with an over-sized master suite with a pleasant leafy aspect to wake up to, as well as separate "his and hers" full-height built-in robes and storage (and plenty of it) and a light, bright and updated ensuite that features a walk-in rain/hose shower, twin stone-vanity basins and a toilet for good measure.
Double family-room doors seamlessly extend living into a functional L-shaped dining and kitchen area that has also been impeccably renovated to include split-system air-conditioning, sparkling stone bench tops, an island breakfast bar for casual meals, subway-tile splashbacks, appliance and microwave nooks, a stainless-steel Bosch dishwasher and a new Falcon Kitchener 90 five-burner gas-cooktop and oven setup. The connecting laundry has also been revamped with its own stone bench top, subway-tile splashbacks, a broom cupboard, over-head and under-bench storage cupboards and French-door access out to a fabulous covered entertaining patio - one that can also be reached via double French doors off the dining space.
There is some lawn within the backyard area, however it's the shimmering elevated swimming pool that takes centre stage and neighbours a terrific gazebo deck for further entertaining. Completing the picture is a secure double lock-up garage that is complemented by extra parking space on the driveway, for peace of mind.
Nestled within the sought-after catchment zones for both Wembley Primary School and Bob Hawke College, this heartwarming haven is within easy walking distance of picturesque Lake Monger, the vibrant Cambridge Street food, coffee and shopping precinct (The Good Grocer IGA included) and an abundance of medical facilities, with lush local parklands, public transport, the freeway, beautiful Herdsman Lake, shopping, other top schools, the Perth CBD, our pristine Western Australian coastline and the surrounding entertainment hubs of Subiaco, West Leederville, Leederville, Mount Hawthorn, North Perth, Mount Lawley, Highgate and even Northbridge all only a matter of minutes away in their own right. Convenient is an understatement here, as the perfect blend of old and new awaits you and your dearest!
