Rich in character with modern touches, every detail of this home's integrity has been respectfully honoured to allow its art-deco charm to shine!
Positioned between the city centre and some of Perth's most celebrated beaches, the home sits in the heart of a thriving retail and restaurant precinct with some of the State's leading schools just a short distance away.
Generously set-back and protected from the road via an enclosed brick wall and remote entrance gate, the front garden has been converted to a stylish timber-decked entertaining area, equipped with built-in seating and water-wise hedging, while also offering a safe and easy-care space for children and pets to play.
Inside, high ornate ceilings, original jarrah floors and charming lead-light windows and doors complement the home's versatile living spaces, with several zones for privacy or relaxed entertaining.
Beyond the wide central hallway, a generous formal lounge room with original light fittings and funky deco-style built-in bar leads to a large dining area and adjoining activities room or study with access to the fully protected rear alfresco area.
At the heart of the home is a modern, north-facing kitchen featuring white gloss, soft-closing drawers and cupboards, subway-tiled splashback, Fischer and Paykel stainless steel gas stovetop and oven. A handy addition is the servery window to the rear alfresco area for effortless entertaining.
Located on the eastern side of the home are two generous bedrooms, the master featuring pleasing front garden views through original leadlight windows, while the exceptionally large second bedroom offers sliding door access to the rear garden and would make the perfect home office or teenager's private retreat. The original and well-preserved bathroom separates these rooms.
Tucked discreetly at the rear of the home a large third bedroom (or alternative master bedroom), features a large built-in-robe and adjoining bathroom with extra-large shower.
The rear, north facing entertaining space is private and secluded from outside noise offering a protected position for alfresco entertaining regardless of the season.
Other features include electronic security, ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, secure tandem parking plus single lock up garage (currently used as a home gym) and easy-care reticulated gardens.
Finally, the location puts you within reach of all that makes Floreat such a wonderful place to live. This home is a short stroll to the thriving Birkdale Street shopping precinct, with its fantastic selection of shops, cafe's, and restaurants, as well as Floreat Forum Shopping Centre. Floreat Kindergarten and Primary School are also a short walk away while it's a ten minute bus ride to the city. Bold Park, City beach and the many parks, sporting facilities and green spaces of this beautiful, leafy suburb are all within easy reach.
Entirely versatile and offering an unmatched lifestyle for families, couples or singles alike, this home offers an affordable entry point into one of Perth's most sought-after communities and will appeal to buyers seeking character and convenience, with all that you need right on your doorstep.
