Shenton Park WA 6008

Situated at one of the highest points of Shenton Park, this magnificent family home offers a seamless fusion of old and new, with a modern extension that maximises the elevation of the block and boasts Perth city skyline views. The extension was designed with solar passive principles in mind, upstairs is warm and light in the winter months and on summer afternoons, is the perfect space to entertain friends with an open plan kitchen, dining and living area that opens onto the deck, which is set amongst treetops and positioned to capture the sea breeze.Rammed earth walls feature throughout and in the downstairs part of the extension keep the area at an ambient temperature all year around. This area has been designed to accommodate a range of needs; it can be closed off from the rest of the home to form its own separate dwelling or used as a garage, workshop, games room or teenagers retreat. All doorways and passageways in this area have been built wide enough to accommodate wheelchair access, making it an ideal home for elderly family members or those with special needs to live quite independently. For those working from home, the area would also lend itself to that purpose, with its own separate access, toilet and kitchenette facility.The front of this property is a perfectly restored and renovated character home and consists of three charming bedrooms, two bathrooms, an elegant living room and mudroom. There is also space to keep chickens, grow your own fruit and veg and let children and pets play in the private front garden!The current owners will miss the family-friendly neighbourhood and spotting fireworks or the moon rising from their vantage point on the rear deck.
