Beautiful proof the Bungalow ages like a bottle of tightly-held Grange, this graceful C1925 4-bedroom home simply gets better with every passing year on its far-reaching north-south plot.
Its long-standing owners have savoured every moment in this light-drenched home with picture-pretty street presence to start and a glorious rear extension to finish an internal layout that flexes to the changing whims of a modern, growing family.
A patina of time adds texture, warmth and undeniable charm to an original section defined by its classic bungalow facade, colourful leadlight windows, Baltic pine floors, pronounced architraves and impossibly high ceilings.
With a smooth journey from front to open-plan rear, that reveals a sun-filled formal lounge which could just as easily double as the fourth bedroom in this ducted-cooled home with crisply updated wet areas.
The main bedroom also feels the northern sun on its face and features a de-cluttering walk-in robe and an ensuite with encaustic artisan floor tiles, walk-in shower and wall-hung vanity.
Generous proportions in bedrooms 2 and 3 ensure no one draws a short straw when picking their places of rest, while the sky-lit main bathroom makes bath time a treat and mid-week morning rushes feel that little bit easier.
Then comes the exhale; a vast rear addition in keeping with the home's origins, fashioned to make you feel free as birds before spilling effortlessly to a rear pavilion well-versed in hosting balmy summer dinners and milestone parties alike.
The true hub; a jarrah-topped kitchen with brand new oven/cooktop, dishwasher, deep storage, breakfast bar, shaker-style silhouette and the floor space to dance the waltz.
Ducted a/c, loads of storage, a lock-carport and a generous shed with power and concrete floors put the practical cherry atop a home with forever written all over it.
Swap forever for no time at all when it comes to your proximity to the metro coast and CBD; both yours in 15 minutes from a home that puts quality schools, shopping precincts, parks and public transport on a platter. Perfect.
