Hamptons-Style Family Retreat

Directly opposite prestigious St Hilda's Anglican School, and metres from picturesque Mosman Bay Park and Freshwater Bay, is this exquisite 1930's renovated character home at 16 Palmerston Street.

The original bungalow has been transformed into a double-storey four-bedroom, three-bathroom luxury residence with distinct Hamptons styling and 1930's period features. Soaring ceilings, expansive timber doors and windows, and a breezy palette create airy, light-filled spaces throughout the home. Original jarrah floorboards, dado rails, ceiling roses, plantation shutters, 'shaker' style cabinets and stunning leadlight windows embrace the charm of yesteryear while effortlessly meeting the demands of a modern family.

The ground level hosts two generous bedrooms, one with a private ensuite, and a beautiful sitting room which would easily convert to a fourth bedroom if required. Cool slate flooring flows through the rear of the home, which encompasses an incredible open plan family and dining space. The living room boasts an open fireplace with jarrah surround, built-in cabinets and enormous sash windows which look out to the alfresco and lush green lawn. The dining room can comfortably accommodate an 8-10 seat table and has double french doors leading out to the delightful timber and iron pergola and recycled brick paving.

You'll fall in love with the beautifully-appointed Hamptons style kitchen, complete with wall-to-wall cabinets, white engineered stone benchtops and breakfast bar, a double fridge recess, electric wall oven, gas cooktop, dishwasher and double pantry. Chefs will love being surrounded by friends and family while cooking up a storm in this relaxed entertaining layout.

Upstairs, your luxurious adult retreat awaits - a tranquil haven where you can relax at the end of a busy day. Your expansive king-sized master suite offers soft hues, white timber shutters and door frames and a spacious walk-in robe. Your resort-style ensuite features floor-to-ceiling white tiling, a double marble-topped vanity, an oversized frameless shower, white timber-framed mirrors and shutters, and a beautiful deep bath to soak your cares away.

Adjacent to the sitting room at the top of the stairs is a customised home office, complete with built-in cabinets, stone tops and floating shelving - perfect for a home-based business or dedicated study space for children.

Outdoors, low limestone retaining, well-maintained lawn and easy-care reticulated gardens provide plenty of room for play, and there's a large garden shed for all your tools, bikes and outdoor storage requirements. The street elevation has retained the original sweeping veranda, with a decorative screen door, leadlight panels, and crisp white posts, fascia and gutters. There is off-street parking for two vehicles undercover and two car bays with a secure gate for access to the rear yard.

This picture-perfect home is positioned in a coveted pocket of Mosman Park, one of Perth's most prestigious suburbs. Directly opposite St Hilda's Anglican School for Girls, and just 400m to Iona Presentation College, this magic riverside location is hard to beat. Cottesloe's world-renowned beaches, and Napoleon Street cafe and shopping precinct are minutes away, with Fremantle and the exclusive Claremont Quarter only slightly further. Make this idyllic family home yours and start creating beautiful memories.
