THE DEAL
Behind its enchanting circa-1930s façade, this fully-renovated 4 bedroom 3 bathroom South Perth haven is a masterpiece of heritage character and modern luxury combined. Occupying a commanding 913sqm (approx.) corner block, it’s framed by manicured, bore-reticulated gardens so immaculate they once hosted a wedding and offers every conceivable comfort — from solar panels and ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning to an A/V intercom system, LED down lights and elegant white plantation shutters throughout.
Upon stepping foot inside beyond a striking timber-lined entry porch, you will discover a grand formal dining room crowned by a magnificent “hero” seated window that overlooks the lush front gardens — a truly timeless statement. Original Jarrah floorboards, high feature skirting boards, picture rails, soaring decorative ceilings and period-style leadlight windows showcase the home’s vintage soul, beautifully balanced by sleek Caesar Stone bench tops, multiple ovens and gas cooking in the gourmet open-plan kitchen. An adjoining family and meals space flows seamlessly to weather-activated louvered “vergola” entertaining zones, where the outdoors becomes a year-round extension of the home.
Accommodation is generous and versatile — including a spacious master-bedroom suite, two opposing spare bedrooms (each with walk-in robes) and a flexible fourth bedroom (or separate living room) with its own cosy fireplace. Nearby, a stylish walk-in dressing room with built-in storage sits conveniently metres from the master, while two separate family bathrooms each feature bathtubs – and a powder room/third toilet connects cleverly off the laundry.
In the privacy of the yard, a sparkling below-ground salt-water swimming pool and external shower promise resort-style relaxation. Completing the picture are a remote single garage, a secure double lock-up garage with Karoo Street access off the property’s second frontage and a substantial workshop/studio with direct entry to both house and back garden — ideal for creative pursuits or extra storage. Every inch of this South Perth sanctuary whispers craftsmanship, class and enduring charm — a family estate where yesterday’s beauty meets today’s brilliance.
