Beyond the White Picket Fence

Established in the early 1900s, 38 Walcott Street now presents with exquisite style and meticulous attention to detail. <br/><br/>Resting upon the sprawling half an acre (2429m2) property is a five-bedroom home, caretaker's residence, two sheds, two carports and a delightful azure, kidney-shaped pool. All buildings and outdoor spaces are joined together ever so gently by a series of pathways, stepping stones and arbours. And the white picket fence frames the whole property perfectly. <br/><br/>Your main residence incudes three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a plethora of living space, both open plan and with more intimate nooks. There is a second living area, closed off so perfect for a theatre room. And the wing off the sitting room, off the Master bedroom would make an ideal location for a nursery/office. The poolhouse boasts two more generous sized bedrooms with a shared ensuite. <br/><br/>Since taking over this property four years ago, the vendors have lovingly restored this Grand Master Pearler home. It proudly stands within the heart of Old Broome and captures the true essence of the town's past, present and future. The restorative transformation is a work of art, retaining the hardwood floors, and replacing fixtures and fittings in every room. Drop pendant lights feature where attention is called for, whilst split aircons and downlights offer a pleasant switch to the modern era. <br/><br/>The main home spoils you as a combined five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Those back-to-wall freestanding tubs are an opulent addition, and ornate crisp white tiling stands the test of time in terms of quality and admired style. The list goes on with floating vanities, wall niches and striking tapware. Even the laundry is a place of pleasantries and luxe. <br/><br/>The Master Pearler design of the building is well-respected and the renovation has retained the soaring ceilings, accentuated by a crisp white palette. Elegant timber features throughout are maintained and offer a polite nod to the home's rich history. <br/><br/>Gas cooking, shaker cabinetry, stone benchtops and a butler's pantry are just some of the exquisite delights in your new kitchen. Every square inch of this space has been customized to suit modern life, and you will want for nothing more. <br/><br/>Outdoor entertaining is pure bliss at 38 Walcott Street. The main timber deck spreads out across the back of the home and overlooks the precise landscaping, meandering paths and the pool. Relax, unwind, entertain, and thrive in your new surroundings. There are two sheds on site, as well as two carports and the caretaker's residence. This is all joined in harmony by a winding gravel driveway. The flow of the grounds provides accessibility yet privacy, drama yet peace. <br/><br/>The gardens have been created to spread joy and indulgence for lovers of the outdoors. Additional features include the central fountain/pond, spreads of lawn worthy of a game of bowls, and perfectly placed, mature garden beds. <br/><br/>Please contact Andrew Blackley to schedule a private viewing of this elite listing. 0409 113 358.
