87B Mackie Street, Victoria Park WA 6100

Northern Light!

With light filled rooms, this big, solidly built 3 bedroom 2 bathroom home boasts solar passive design and clever architectural cues.
Tucked in behind the original character home at 87 Mackie Street, but with its own frontage to Seaborn Lane, this home is right in the heart of the sought after Raphael Park precinct.

87B Mackie Street has more than stood the test of time.

It's design elements are now the cornerstone of good residential construction.

In 1998 the home builders fought the good fight to get their (then) unconventional home plan approved.
With saw-toothed incisions into a traditional rectangular house design they created a series of northern aspects where there would otherwise have been none.
Inviting light and warmth into the home over the winter months and optimising shady outdoor living and cross ventilation for the summertime, this home has been built with practical environmental sensitivities for comfortable modern living.

The home features well over 200m2 under the main roof, with expansive open plan living on the ground floor and a second living room with balcony on the first floor.
Currently configured as a three bedroom home the upstairs living room has been designed with the ability to insert a stud wall and create another large fourth bedroom - if ever required.

The kitchen is impressively proportioned with acres of bench space and oodles of cupboards, plus a large corner pantry.
At the heart of this home, with sleek stainless steel-look appliances, there is space for gastronomes to work their magic, or if that's not your style just relax and enjoy tea and toast.

The concrete slab tiled floor downstairs floor acts as thermal mass to capture the winter sunlight making this a beautiful home to live in year round.

There are two dedicated bedrooms upstairs.
The main bedroom is very generously proportioned, with a walk in robe, and taking advantage of the northern orientation.
It even opens onto the balcony, just right for relaxing morning cups of coffee.
The second bedroom is also a good size and features built in storage.

The main bathroom upstairs is tiled to the ceiling and boasts a deep corner spa, for long luxuriating soaks.

Another bathroom and smaller third bedroom on the ground floor provide a practical option for guests, or it could be your perfect home office, if required.
