A Character Home with Style and Grace
Original circa-1930s charm and character pervades this beautiful 3 bedroom 2 bathroom residence, impressively modernised and sitting comfortably on a fantastic 522sqm corner block, close to the soul of Bassendean’s town centre.The enchanting front garden is low maintenance and securely gated for peace of mind, splendidly overlooked by a delightful veranda entry deck.
With soaring high ceilings and solid wooden floorboards throughout the home, the carpeted master-bedroom enjoys the luxury of a walk-in robe, split-system air-conditioning, sliding doors out to a gorgeous side deck and a quality ensuite with toilet, rain shower and stone vanity.
A ceiling fan and fireplace grace a versatile library – or study – off the entry that can also be used as a 4th bedroom or whatever you want, or need, it to be.
Taking centre stage is a charming country kitchen, with exquisite wooden bench tops, a ceiling fan, double sinks and a water-filter tap, all combined with stainless-steel range-hood, gas-cooktop and oven appliances. There’s even a Miele dishwasher for good measure.
Adjacent is a massive open-plan dining, lounge and family area that allows plenty of space for a computer or reading nook. French doors extend living out to the front veranda, whilst a bubbling outdoor spa can also be accessed from here.
A fabulous alfresco-entertaining deck overlooks the sparkling below-ground solar-heated swimming pool in a very private outdoor setting… like your own personal resort.
The other two bedrooms are serviced by a contemporary family bathroom-come-laundry with free-standing claw-foot bathtub, separate shower, timber vanity and wash trough, opening up to a rear porch with easy access to an undercover washing line. Completing this unique package is drop-down-ladder access up to a handy storage attic, off the main hallway.
This is a house you will simply fall in love with in a private setting that encourages relaxation yet is only minutes from all the conveniences of living near Perth!
