Love at First Sight!

Perched proudly on an elevated corner block in peaceful cul-de-sac seclusion, this character-filled and uniquely-designed 4 bedroom 2 bathroom haven blends timeless warmth with commanding space and outlook.

Occupying a generous 784sqm (approx.) block, it enjoys sweeping inland views to the Darling Scarp while delivering the comfort, charm and versatility families crave. It’s a home with presence, personality and room for life to unfold.

Its stunning street appeal is enhanced by impeccably-manicured lawns and gardens, a wraparound entry verandah with the best vantage point of all and a feature leadlight entry door. Inside, soaring 10-foot-high ceilings, solid wooden Blackbutt floorboards, gorgeous feature Victorian cornices, high feature skirting boards and picture rails are just some of the many classic features that can be found throughout this bespoke abode that also possesses generous room proportions and a surprisingly modern floor plan.

The fourth bedroom off the entry is huge, as is the front third bedroom – complete with a double built-in wardrobe and its own slice of the pleasant hills vista. A well-appointed main family bathroom is graced by marble tiles, a sleek marble vanity and plays host to both a shower and separate bathtub, catering for everybody’s personal needs at the same
time.

There is a separate toilet within this part of the layout, alongside a giant second bedroom.Folding doors reveal a spacious formal lounge room with carpet, a striking ceiling rose, antique curtains, a French light fitting, a cast-iron moulded wood fireplace and two sets of double doors that flow out to the verandah – Darling Range views and all.

The expansive master retreat also plays host to beautiful antique curtains, with an antique light fitting and three doors of built-in robes complemented by a fully-tiled ensuite – comprising of a marble vanity and marble floor tiles, a shower, toilet and sublime sash window that lets the fresh air in.

A huge family room – with a ceiling rose – is warmed by a second wood fireplace with cast-iron finishes, leading through to a large open-plan dining and kitchen area with solid timber cabinetry, sleek stone bench tops, a double-door fridge/freezer recess, double sinks, an integrated range hood, a stainless-steel five-burner Fisher and Paykel gas cooktop, a stainless-steel under-bench oven and an adjacent laundry. The latter feature stone bench tops, under-bench wooden storage, tiled splashbacks, a double-sliding-door linen press/pantry.

The kitchen opens out to another verandah, overlooking a lawn strip that would make for a fantastic future swimming pool, if you are that way inclined. The family room, via double doors, seamlessly extends outdoors for entertaining under the verandah and a spacious paved patio area, with brick seating. This breezy and elevated zone benefits from a tree- lined inland vista and magical evening sunsets – and is mere metres away from a second sunken backyard-lawn area and a gated courtyard for further entertaining or a potential spa, with the rolling hills in the distance.

There is even a designated boat, caravan or trailer parking bay out front, separate from the driveway that leads directly into an extra-large and extra-wide standalone remote- controlled double lock-up garage with its own high ceilings. Completing the package are an assortment of fruit trees – including avocado, mango and espaliered pear and apple plants.

The lovely Phillip Jane Park is just steps away around the corner, along with bus stops and other lush green local parks and reserves. Also nearby are Banksia Park Primary School, Leeming Forum Shopping Centre, fantastic family restaurants, the magnificent Melville Glades Golf Club, Leeming Senior High School, major shopping centres, the freeway, other major arterial roads, Murdoch Train Station, Murdoch University, the St John of God Murdoch and Fiona Stanley Hospitals, Fremantle and even the city.
