61 Parade Street, Albany WA 6330

THREE’S AN ABSOLUTE CHARM

For its fabulous harbour views, beautiful character features and proximity to the centre of town, this home achieves a fine trifecta.
It’s a 1960s brick and tile home on a 672sqm block high on Mt Melville, just 600 metres from cafés and shops of York Street and just a little further to excellent schools, entertainment and the fishing jetty.
Designed to maximise the outlook, the home takes in views from most rooms. Owners can see magnificent sunrises on the water, watch cruise ships coming and going in the port, and gaze out to the Southern Ocean, Torndirrup National Park and Mt Clarence.
The home displays beautiful jarrah floors, timber window frames and high ceilings with decorative cornices, while the kitchen, bathroom and laundry have been skilfully upgraded to complement the essence of the place while providing modern facilities.
It is sunny and welcoming, the lounge at the front having a feature open fireplace as well as a gas heater, etched glass doors and a corner window to make the most of the outlook.
Next to this is the dining area and then the kitchen, a generous workspace with an island bench, five-burner stainless steel chef’s stove, dishwasher and ample timber cabinetry.
Enhancing the living spaces is an airy sunroom, the perfect reading or afternoon tea spot, a dome-roofed rear patio big enough for family barbecues, and a long front deck taking in the outlook.
All the bedrooms are carpeted. The master is a king-sized room with built-in robes and the other two are queen sized, one with a robe.
These share the bathroom with a walk-in shower, vanity and toilet, and there’s a second toilet off the laundry.
The undercroft garage has storage space and access to a powered workshop on one side and a terrific office or hobby room – also with power – on the other.
Delightful gardens consist of a lawn, silver birches and succulents sheltered by four towering palms at the front, and a private back yard with seating nooks, a raised veggie garden, a lockup toolshed and a rainwater tank.
This quality-built, beautifully presented home promises a lifestyle of comfort and convenience in a stylish celebration of an earlier era.
