51 John Street

Cottesloe WA 6011

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Whether the new custodians are young professionals, growing families, astute investors or groups seeking inter-generational living, the apartment configurations cater to various lifestyles.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to make this prestigious Art Deco masterpiece your own.
