Throw in the benefits of a very handy proximity to the Claremont Yacht Club, medical facilities, the University of Western Australia and both Swanbourne and Claremont Train Stations and you have yourself one of the most impressive timeless residences on the market today - sometimes, only the best will do!Approx rates:Council: $3,176 paWater: $1,819 pa
