Mount Lawley WA 6050

This fully renovated character home in the heart of Mt Lawley is a class act. Built in the 1930s, this stunning three-bedroom, two-bathroom home has only had two owners in 90 years. That alone should give you some idea of the charm of this property, and combined with an extensive renovation and extension designed by award-winning architect Andrew Macliver (of A&A Macliver Architecture and Interior Design), resistance is useless.The extension seamlessly incorporates open-plan living and dining, a gourmet kitchen, a study nook, laundry and a powder room complimenting the original character, while catering to modern family living for many decades to come.Restored jarrah floorboards, high decorative ceilings, elegant free-standing baths, skirting boards, fireplaces and Fienza tapware retain the allure of a bygone era. Miele and Asco appliances, smart ducted reverse-cycle air-conditioning, solar panels and keyless entry are just a few of the high-end updates.Entertaining is an absolute joy in the private alfresco area beneath the patio, which flows into the interior open-plan living area. The primary bedroom also features a terrace, while the front porch overlooks the fully enclosed front garden and the street from where you can admire your affluent neighbours' homes.Many move to this suburb to be within walking distance of the exclusive Perth College, plus you are only a stroll from 2nd Avenue IGA, Mt Lawley Primary School and Beaufort Street's thriving dining and shopping strip - just think of all those cafes, bars and boutiques to explore. It's only a stroll to the Mt Lawley train station having you in the city in moments and you're a short distance from the Mt Lawley Senior High School, Swan River, Mount Lawley Golf Club and Edith Cowan University.Character homes restored to this standard rarely stay on the market for long, especially in such highly sought-after locations.
