Elegant Family Residence

PRIVATE INSPECTIONS INVITED. <br/><br/>This timeless two storey Georgian residence offers 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathrooms, office, formal and informal lounges, dining, alfresco games room, pool and an abundance of lawn. The two car lock up garage is complimented by additional secure hardstand, all on 1237sqm of land, in an absolutely prime location near parks close to the river foreshore. <br/><br/>The property's impressive double-storey elevation includes white multi-pane windows against the soft grey painted brick facade. The manicured gardens, circular driveway and double-door entrance are at once grand and welcoming.<br/><br/>The family home boasts a timeless design that has been completely renovated over the past few years. It has a family-friendly layout with living and entertaining on the ground level and accommodation upstairs. Inside you'll find soaring 2.8-metre ceilings, solid WA Blackbutt flooring and several living areas to appease a variety of family members' ages and stages.<br/><br/>The front lounge room features a gas heater and granite hearth, flowing into the dining area beneath a stately vaulted ceiling. The second downstairs living area is a spacious multi-purpose theatre/activity room with built-in storage. There's also an office with a built-in desk, filing drawers and shelving, complete with plantation shutters overlooking the leafy streetscape - a comfortable and professional space for those working from home.<br/><br/>Enjoy catering for your family and guests in the recently upgraded kitchen, complete with stone benches, glass splashbacks, 900mm Miele cooking appliances and ample soft-closing cabinetry. Adjacent is a handy pantry, with additional storage and bench space.<br/><br/>The restful accommodation level comprises four generous secondary bedrooms with built-in robes, two with private ensuites and two sharing the luxe, fully tiled large family bathroom. The main suite is a sumptuous private sanctuary. It has a stunning cedar-lined vaulted ceiling, textured wallpaper, a private balcony overlooking the expansive lawn and garden, and a customised walk-in robe. The luxurious ensuite is appointed with a recessed oval spa, heated towel rails, an oversized frameless shower and a separate WC. This all makes for a superb adults' retreat. <br/><br/>On this level, you'll also find a study 'nook' or activity area near the secondary bedrooms, and a separate sitting area by the main suite, the perfect spot to relax with a book on the sunny window seat. You'll also appreciate the thought that went into storage throughout the home; the walk-in linen cupboards, built-in cabinetry and wall-to-wall garage storage is outstanding.<br/><br/>Outside, the lush gardens attract an array of birdlife - one of the things locals love most about this spectacular suburb. Entertain year-round beneath the cedar-lined, pitched alfresco roof while overlooking the beautiful gardens. There's a wall-mounted gas heater, ceiling fan, and a built-in BBQ plinth for whenever you feel inspired to grill. The gas heated saltwater swimming pool is framed by greenery, a magnificent eucalypt and a stacked-stone waterfall feature, and there's a timber-decked bathing pavilion for relaxing poolside between dips. Teens will love the games room, large enough for a pool table or equally awesome as a gym or studio.<br/><br/>This exclusive blue-chip suburb has so much to offer those who call it 'home' - picturesque riverside reserves and walking trails, proximity to premium state and private schools, UWA, high-end shopping at the Claremont Quarter, and Waratah Village for local amenities and dining. <br/><br/>Secure this superb family residence and desirable lifestyle.
