EXCLUSIVE PREVIEW THIS WEEKEND OF THIS LANDMARK PROPERTY. PLEASE CALL TO REGISTER.<br/><br/>This is a rare opportunity to secure a grand residence and a piece of Cottesloe history.<br/><br/>Built in circa 1934, 'St John's Court' is an award-winning heritage building seamlessly divided into three separate apartments set in gracious garden surrounds with the aesthetics of a single residence. It is a truly unique residence fusing grand heritage style with modern luxury on John Street, one of Cottesloe's finest streets. It has the potential to be a warm and welcoming sprawling family home with living options aplenty or an investment opportunity like no other.<br/><br/>It is a fine expression of Art Deco architecture and captures some breathtaking ocean, river and treetop vistas. Majestically set back behind an avenue of tranquil Norfolk Island Pine trees and located just metres from the pristine white sands of iconic Cottesloe Beach, this elegant two-storey residence is endowed with old-world prestige and sits proudly on almost 900sqm of blue-chip land. <br/><br/>Constructed nearly 100 years ago by Messrs. H. Brown and Sons, the building's remarkable condition today is testament to their superior craftsmanship that has withstood the test of time, evident in the illustrious preserved facade and rich interior detailing.<br/>Maintained to the highest standard, all three apartments are adorned with romantic leadlight bay windows, timber architraves, ornate picture rails, decorative ceilings and original fireplaces.<br/><br/>The entire second floor has been re-designed to feel like a home, not an apartment. Extensive renovations in 2023 have transformed this uppermost level into a series of luminous, fresh spaces with opulent touches. Elegance, glamour, function and modern convenience were at the forefront of this beautiful re-design which remains true to the Art Deco style. Fixtures and finishes, from the elegant designer pendant lights to the crisp white walls, quality wool carpets and gorgeous new oak floors, were carefully selected to complement the original features and create a timeless atmosphere.<br/><br/>This sprawling two-bedroom, two-bedroom apartment also enjoys an elevated position providing superb sweeping views from the kitchen and informal living areas of the calm waters at Freshwater Bay across the leafy neighbourhood and over to Cottesloe Beach. A separate formal dining area and two lovely living rooms enjoy wonderful northern light throughout the day, illuminating their refined period features, and a sheltered front porch captures serene garden vistas. The gourmet kitchen, located centrally, demonstrates elegance needn't be lost to modernisation. Less than a year old, this luxuriously-appointed entertainer's dream comes complete with a suite of Miele appliances, soft-closing Blum drawers, an integrated fridge/freezer and dishwasher and a beautiful stone-topped island bench. <br/><br/>Provision has also been made for the inclusion of an internal lift off the kitchen, with the shaft presently incorporating a dumbwaiter to transport shopping and heavy items upstairs. Other amenities befitting a building of this scale include triple garaging, heating and cooling and excellent storage.<br/><br/>The one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartments on the ground floor have benefitted from contemporary updates which are sympathetic and not overdone. These include air-conditioning and converting the original fireplaces to gas for convenience.<br/><br/>A stroll away from the ocean's edge, the village and the train station, many other amenities are within easy reach including Cottesloe's golf and tennis clubs and fashionable shops, cafes, restaurants and bars.<br/><br/>Whether the new custodians are young professionals, growing families, astute investors or groups seeking inter-generational living, the apartment configurations cater to various lifestyles.<br/><br/>Don't miss this rare opportunity to make this prestigious Art Deco masterpiece your own.<br/><br/>Call Candie Italiano on 0429 159 506 for more details.<br/><br/>THE BUILDING<br/>• Magnificent Art Deco apartment complex on two titles comprising 895sqm of land<br/>• Prime elevated position in central Cottesloe on coveted John Street<br/>• Beachside setting and a short stroll to the ocean's edge<br/>• Outstanding investment potential with three separate apartments and further development opportunities<br/>• Preserved heritage features<br/>• Established and lush gardens<br/>• Three garages and ROW for vehicles<br/>• No strata titles<br/>• Walk to trains, buses, shops, restaurants, bars, cafes, beach and parks<br/>• Safe, secure, family-focussed neighbourhood<br/><br/>Top storey 2 bed 2 bath residence:<br/>• Renovated throughout in 2023 with luxury fixtures and fittings<br/>• Ocean, river and treetop views<br/>• Two spacious, stylish bedrooms<br/>• Two modern bathrooms<br/>• Beautiful period details including original leadlight doors and windows<br/>• Formal and informal living rooms<br/>• Formal and informal dining spaces<br/>• Flexible additional living space with sweeping views (presently used as a yoga room)<br/>• Sophisticated entertainer's kitchen with integrated appliances and central island bench<br/>• Provision for internal lift and existing dumbwaiter for shopping bags<br/>• Built-in linen cupboards<br/>• Designer laundry<br/>• North-facing formal dining room, living rooms and porch, all with leafy views<br/>• New luxe wool carpets and quality hybrid engineered oak floors throughout<br/>• Ducted heating and cooling<br/>• Gas fireplace<br/>• Walk-in robe (main bedroom)<br/><br/>The two 1 bed 1 bath ground floor residnces, each with:<br/>• Own front and rear door access<br/>• Own garage for vehicle<br/>• One spacious bedroom<br/>• One bathroom<br/>• Split system heating and cooling<br/>• Built-in linen storage<br/>• Neat, tidy, spacious kitchen with original charm<br/>• Formal lounge with original fireplace (converted to gas) and pretty garden views<br/>• Beautiful character details including leadlight windows and decorative ceilings<br/>• Jarrah floorboards beneath carpet<br/>• Polished jarrah floorboards in kitchen of apartment two<br/>• Extra study/WIR/nursery space adjacent to bedroom in apartment two<br/>• Own access to front gardens via covered porch and door to paved area at rear<br/><br/>Rates & Local Information:<br/>Water Rates: $1,093.14 (2022/23)<br/>Cottesloe Council Rates: $4,121.31 (2023/24)<br/>Zoning: R20<br/>Primary School Catchment: North Cottesloe Primary School<br/>Secondary School Catchments: Shenton College <br/><br/>DISCLAIMER: This information is provided for general information purposes only and is based on information provided by third parties including the Seller and relevant local authorities and may be subject to change.
