Steps away from the banks of the Swan River, you'll find a picturesque garden home nestled behind the privacy of high walls. It's an idyllic setting to come home to and wonderful place to live with easy walkability to the foreshore, UWA, public transport, shops, restaurants, cafes and the local primary school. As one of only two properties across a generous block, this home feels surprisingly secluded yet central to so much.Spanning the lower floor is a light-filled open plan layout encompassing the lounge, dining, kitchen and guest powder room with a reverse-cycle air conditioning unit above for year-round comfort. Brought to life by esteemed designers "Raw Edge Furniture", the kitchen (mirrored beautifully in the combined butler's pantry and laundry behind) incorporates a custom-built timber bench, glossy white soft- close cabinetry, subway tiled splashback, stainless steel benchtops, and sleek appliances including an Asko electric oven, gas stovetop and integrated Miele dishwasher.Polished Eucalyptus wooden floors bring warmth to the freshly painted light interiors, while the white-washed, exposed feature brick wall and black steel column nod to industrial-inspired design. A series of stunning French doors beckon you to open them up and sit amongst the serene garden courtyard of thoughtfully planted deciduous trees that shed their leaves in winter and flourish with shady, green canopies in summer. There's easy-care artificial lawn below, landscaped garden surrounds - perfect for kids to play on behind the privacy and security this high-walled space provides.The rustic red brick walls, white pergola, and sprawling climbing vines wrapping the exterior add a touch of country-style charm for alfresco dining whether it's coffee and brunch to start the day, entertaining guests, or dinner parties with loved ones on balmy summer evenings. Tucked around the corner the greenery continues and a pretty garden archway leads to the east-facing drying courtyard (with laundry access), storeroom and parking in the garage.Upstairs, you'll discover a dedicated bedroom zone with carpet throughout and ducted air-conditioning. The master domain features its own west-facing balcony, sliding mirrored built-in wardrobe and ensuite, while the remaining south-facing bedrooms enjoy treed outlooks, each with built-in wardrobes and share the main bathroom.Everything you need is on your doorstep within minutes; UWA's vast facilities including the lap pool, business school and daycare, Broadway Fair shopping precinct for all the essentials, the QE2 medical centre and lush green parklands at Matilda's Bay and King's Park. City commuters can drive to the CBD in minutes or jump on the free CAT bus, or can even avoid traffic altogether by cycling into the CBD, with a planned Matilda Bay ferry link also set to open soon. On the weekends, make the most of this leafy pocket and enjoy a leisurely wander or cycle along the river (picking up a coffee from the local coffee van on your way), lunch from the Royal Perth Yacht Club or dinner and cocktails from Steve's bar and restaurant. For even more dining and entertainment options, the buzz of Perth City or Subiaco is only a short drive away, while beach lovers will appreciate the proximity to Cottesloe.This lovely garden home will appeal to an array of buyers including down- sizers, young families, professionals or those with long term vision seeking an exceptional rental investment. Comfort, convenience and prime riverside living in this highly sought after locale awaits.Additional features:- Secure gated driveway- Garden reticulation- Security screens throughout- Climate controlFor more information on this property, please contact Harry Stevenson today.We look forward to welcoming you.
