Last Listing description (March 2016)

Stepping in to this exquisite residence is like walking into a special edition of Australian House & Garden magazine. Oozing charm & character borne of history and heritage, this original c.1927 jarrah weatherboard cottage has been extended & renovated into a modern, double storey classic with all the features & modern conveniences of 2015.
Behind the white picket fenced gates lies a beautifully manicured garden. A wraparound bull-nosed verandah at the front with wooden decking presents a warm welcome and includes two solid wooden doors as entry points to the home.
Once inside, you are greeted by a sea of original jarrah floorboards and an extensive list of bespoke features & fine finishes. With ceiling heights of 3.3 m, eloquent cornices, ceiling roses, chandeliers and more, there is something special to appreciate and admire at every turn.

The open plan lounge/kitchen/dining area is an expansive space in which you could spend countless hours with family & friends cooking, dining, entertaining & relaxing. Stone benchtops are beautifully matched with stainless steel appliances and original jarrah cupboards.
There are three queen sized bedrooms downstairs; one with a full built in robe, two plushly carpeted & one with polished floorboards. A full-sized family bathroom has been recently remodelled to include a full bath, separate shower & toilet. A spacious & functional laundry room with a separate powder room completes the first level.
The LED-lit, wide jarrah staircase leads upstairs to a master bedroom with its own WIR and plenty of storage space. The study connecting the master bedroom provides additional space and can double as a nursery.
There is a kitchenette upstairs with a built-in bar fridge and sink plus a balcony adjoining the lounge/parents retreat that overlooks the back garden.
The fully covered alfresco area features a full service kitchen with gas teppanyaki BBQ, sink, double beer fridges and a hand-built wood-fired pizza oven.
There is one car space at the front of the home (Banksia Tce entrance) and a 2-car automated garage with ROW entry via Twig Lane. There's room for a workshop and being fully plumbed with gas, water and electricity means you can facilitate further extensions.
The home also features reverse cycle, zoned & ducted air-conditioning throughout.
Its location ensures easy access to major shops, schools and local amenities. This is a modern classic to be admired and enjoyed!
