Last Listing description (November 2018)
Since its grand beginnings in the 1880s, this outstanding character home has been lovingly preserved and expertly extended and modernised.
It represents a rare opportunity to purchase a high-quality historic home displaying original features without any further work to carry out.
Exhibiting late Victorian architecture of a symmetrical facade with a central door and a front veranda, the home stands on the lower slopes of Mt Clarence. Although it is only 300 metres from York Street, it takes in fabulous views over Princess Royal Harbour to Torndirrup National Park, the wind farm, the town hall and Mt Melville.
Jarrah floorboards, timber sash windows, high ceilings and open fireplaces characterise the inside of the home, which is spacious, inviting and immaculately presented.
A classic layout for a home of this period, it features a central hallway leading past four bedrooms to the main living area. All these bedrooms are generous and lend themselves to other uses to suit the owners, such as a library, studio or formal dining room.
The comfortable, spacious lounge, with an open fireplace, is towards the rear, near the extension, the two separated by a central atrium with a fish pond and seating nook. The newer part fits tastefully into the style of the original building.
Next is the well-appointed modern kitchen. A big, inviting room with superior cabinetry and a central dining table, this is a wonderful venue for family meals and casual entertaining with the French doors open to a sheltered pergola in the back garden.
A claw-foot bath with a shower is the focus of the generous bathroom at the rear. This is accessed through the laundry and also from a fifth bedroom, which adjoins a second sitting room. The toilet is separate, off the laundry.
Mostly in lawn, the back garden has a vegetable patch, a few native trees and private areas for sitting out and taking in the expansive view.
A fine example of home of its era, this will appeal to discerning buyers demanding character and convenience in one pleasant package.
